Why read it?

1 author picked A Heart Adrift as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Not only is Laura Frantz one of my most favorite authors, her historical romance A Heart Adrift is one of my favorite privateer stories. I quickly fell in love with the swoony Captain Henri Lennox, related to quiet dreamer and chocolatier Esmee Shaw, and was enchanted by every beautiful word that made up this inspiring and intriguing novel! If you love the sea, second chance romance, and stories that will captivate and uplift you, A Heart Adrift is for you!

From Grace's list on romantic swashbuckling adventure.
