The Accidental Abduction of Miss Arbuthnot

By: Elena Rosewood

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A governess, a pirate, and far too much ink.

Miss Beatrice Arbuthnot prides herself on order, punctuality, and proper conduct—so naturally, she’s mortified to discover she’s boarded a pirate ship by mistake. Captain Rory Finch, scourge of the Spanish Main (and reluctant grammar student), wanted a valuable hostage, not a sharp-tongued schoolmistress correcting his ransom notes.

But as storms rage and tempers flare, Beatrice’s prim composure proves more disarming than any pistol. Soon she’s reorganizing his crew, redecorating his cabin, and threatening his reputation as a fearsome rogue. For the first time, Captain Finch finds himself thoroughly—and delightfully—overruled.

A sparkling romantic comedy of manners on the high seas, where decorum meets disarray and love proves the most unpredictable adventure of all.

Difficult to believe

So they encounter a major storm- no captain is going to ride it out below decks. They are going to be on deck being a captain.
