Mrs. Jocelyn Finch is chaperoning a ship full of young women looking for husbands. When the Bride Ship lands in Halifax, Governor Robert Kerr is not happy to see them. He worries that the women will disrupt life in this quiet area of Canada. Telling Mrs. Finch that he does not want the brides to stop in his city does not go over well. Jocelyn challenges him to a duel in front of the townspeople. Soon Sir Robert is at his wits end with the young women and their crafty chaperone.
After reading the first few pages of this book, I was expecting a funny story. But not too far into the book, the story fell flat for me. Even though the characters were smart and likeable, I had a hard time keeping my mind on the plot. The story seemed to drag with nothing exciting happening. My rating: 2 Stars.
