Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy
This second book in the Montague Siblings duo is center on Felicity Montague. Felicity wants to become a doctor but in the 1700's it is almost unheard of for a woman to enter that field. Her desire to practice medicine overrides her common sense and she embarks on a journey filled with adventure, danger and even pirates.
This book is just as delightful as the first book, A Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue. I highly recommend them both.
