4 of 5 starsAndrew Keane, the Duke of Hawking, doesn't remember how he ended up tangled in a fishing net in the bay, but even though he's fuzzy because of a head wound, he knows beauty and kindness when he sees it. Miss Poppy Summers works hard for her family's fishing business, and when she finds an unconscious man in her fishing net, she's stunned not only by his masculine beauty but why he ended up in the bay in the first place. Poppy agrees to help Hawking regain his memory, although she thinks he's delusional when he tells her he's the Duke of Hawking. She thinks the blow to his head has rattled his brain. Can these two work together to unravel the mystery of who attacked him, or will they succumb to the growing attraction between them?
This was a cute story about two people in love overcoming a number of obstacles standing in their way to true happiness. The plot moves along well as they try to unravel the mystery of Hawking's attack. Along the way, secrets are revealed, and friendships are broken. There are a number of twists and turns in the story that keeps the story moving forward. I loved Poppy's feistiness and Hawking's drive to convince Poppy that they could make a life together. There are enough clues to guess who the villain is, but the full extent of his reasoning is slowly revealed. I thoroughly enjoyed the story and look forward to Kitty's story next.
I voluntarily read the advanced reader copy and all opinions are my own.
