About this audiobook
Miss Poppy Summers is determined to keep her family’s fishing business afloat. Her poor widowed father has fallen ill, and her foolhardy brother has moved to London, leaving her precious little time to pursue her own dreams. The very last
thing Poppy needs to find tangled in her nets is a dangerously attractive man with a head wound––who claims he’s a duke.
And a duke out of water
Andrew Keane is the Duke of Hawking, but he’s having a devil of a time convincing his fiery-haired rescuer of that fact. The truth is, someone in Bellehaven wants to kill him, and he intends to find out who––if he can persuade Poppy to help him.
She’s wary of Keane’s scheme but can’t refuse the generous sum he offers in exchange for food and shelter while he recovers. It’s a business arrangement, she reasons … nothing more.
Are about to make waves
As Keane and Poppy work together to solve the puzzle of his attacker, unexpected feelings blossom between them. But Poppy’s past gives her every reason to mistrust someone like Keane, and when all the facts come to light, she must
decide where her loyalties lie. Torn between the world she’s always known and the one she’s always dreamed of, she’ll need to trust Keane for a chance at her fairy-tale ending.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Fisher Poppy finds an injured duke washed up on her family's beach. At least, he claims to be a duke. Can she help him find who's trying to kill him?
This fun, heartwarming, witty romance is full of intrigue and playful banter. Poppy and Keane are clever, strong-willed, and adorable together. Loved it!
Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.
