Main Conflict: When Jacky Faber, returns from Boston to see her soon to be husband, she is surprised to see him with another woman. She runs off, vowing never to marry in her life. Little does she know, the woman was his cousin. Unfortunately, she was pretending to be a boy and was press-ganged into service upon a ship led by a man who rivalled the devil's evilness. Girls on board ships were against Navy Regulations, but the Captain kept her aboard for more nefarious purposes. She must survive on a ship with a captain who means her harm, as well as adressing the fact that they never attacked a smuggler ship trying to get through to England.
Best Part: When Jacky had to spring several crew members from her own ship, the Emerald, from a jail in a city protected by 50 massive cannons. She and her friend, Mairead, nailed the firing hole in every cannon shut, while a group of sailors pretended to fire at the citizens to drive them off.

Another good looking book. And a 10/10 rating shows that's what you think as well. Re-read your primary conflict part and see if you can find the 1 sentence where you mention the main issue to be solved in the book. More than that you do not need.
