Cecilia Bassingwaite belongs to the prestigious Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels. Yet this is no ordinary society - as it's full of pirates, thieves and ne'er-do-wells. These women spend their days pickpocketing and blackmailing all before tea time. But when Cecilia meets Ned Lightingbourne her world is set to change. Because he's an assassin and she's his next hit. Under the employment of Captain Movath Ned knows he has one job to do. But when he lays eyes on the feisty, beautiful Cecilia he's faced with a conundrum: does he kill her or fall in love with her?

Y'all, This One Got Me Into the Romance Genre...

4 stelle

An entertaining twist of the realm of piracy; lady pirates who are powerful and feared, pirates and women who look out for each other, magical pirates?? Ugh, it's met all of my standards.

Cecilia, our main character, is witty and thoughtful and navigates her relationship with Ned and her overprotective aunt in a way I think is familiar for many people with overbearing authority figures. She doesn't throw away aspects of herself or her dreams for love, and each of the Wisteria ladies were wonderful side characters that added a new twist of personality to the already one-of-a-kind cast.

3.5/5 rounded up because I really did enjoy this book. Not quite a five star for me, but lovers of the romance genre, magic, women who know what they want, and a dash of quirky events will likely enjoy it even more than I did.
