**Spoiler** Although the romance wraps up between the two main characters by the end of the book, the end of the book has the next sister in trouble, so this book is to be continued somewhat.

This is an excellent book and it will keep you in suspense throughout most of the book. If you love stories about pirates or adventures on the high seas, then you should love this book.
