Publisher's summary

Jane has been many things in her life. A wife. A widow. A thief. A prostitute. Most recently, a woman seeking any means of escape from Grand Port.

Flying no colors and desperate for crew, Sneaky Lass is a damaged brig in no position to look too closely at any volunteers, no matter how ill-suited to sea life they may be. After a series of decisions Jane can’t turn back from, she commits one final act of desperation; she dons stolen boots, shorn hair, and the name Dixon Ables to take up with the crew of Sneaky Lass. Now, she finds herself in a position where she must keep up her boyish disguise or be thrown into the briny deep.

Concrete plans to leave the ship at the next port turn fluid as Jane becomes enamored by the mystery of the ropes, the lullaby of waves against the hull, and the wind in the sails. That the crewmen are far from the salty rogues she expected doesn't help her resolve. Among the filthy men, the roar of cannons, the critical eye of a whip-wielding quartermaster, and beneath the weight of her own lies, Jane finds something she long believed a fantasy—Family.

Even the frequent gaze of the fine and fair-minded captain isn't enough to send her towards shore…yet. She doesn't want to sacrifice everything until she is sure he knows her secret, or perhaps his attentions are something else, something more.

The problem is her new life belongs to the man called Dixon, not the woman called Jane. The longer she stays aboard Sneaky Lass, the closer she grows to losing everything she's come to value; new friends, the only home she's ever known, her life. Deceptions are difficult on land, but in the close quarters of a pirate ship, they can be deadly.

Oh Jane & Bennett

It's official, I am a Pirate Girly! This audible was an absolute delight! The story of Jane and how she comes to The Sneaky Lass will suck you in ,and your emotions.
The friendships Jane/Dixon makes on the ship will make you laugh & break your heart. The love story with Bennett left me sobbing in traffic. Not giving a flip if anyone was watching. I felt every emotion, the writing is exquisite, the story was so vivid. I felt I could smell the stench of sailors, and taste the ale. Read this/listen to this it will not disappoint! 5 Stars All The Way!

Waiting impatiently for more

Immediately intrigued by Jane, the FMC, how she got where she is and how she's going to get where you know she's going.
Traumas are presented clearly but gently and tastefully so they weren't triggering for me.
Slow burn, steady development of characters, relationships and revelations sprinkled throughout.

The narration was clear and soothing, giving each character depth and diction that had me questioning backgrounds - which turned out to be relevant.

I love this book

Reread 2024: yup I am still in love with this book! I did the audio book this time around and omgahhh does it really bring the story to life!


Original read 2022:

"I envy those men, and all men. No matter how dire their situations, they will never sink so low as me."

Kennedy Sutton crushed her first book The Sneaky Lass! this book gave me serious book hangover. one of the best historical romance stories I have read. the world building and little details really submerge you fully into the story.

I loved the Female Main character you can really see the struggle she goes through in the beginning as a prostitute, when she decides to change her circumstances she takes up with a group of pirates under the guise of a man. it has LGBTQ+ representation, slow burn/forbidden love, and all the things you love about Pirates and adventure regarding the sea.

that ending though! half of me left along with that ending and I will not be whole again until I have book two in my hands!

Fantastic story!

This is such rich story, and I’m so glad it’s finally on audio. I can’t wait until we get more. The author did a fantastic job of narrating her own book and clearly has some acting experience. Can’t wait to listen to the rest.

I'm not crying. You're crying!

Was the book good? Yes. Was it action pacted? Yes! Did it make me cry on multiple occations? Also yes! The emotion Kennedy Sutton gives to Jane and the crew of the Sneaky Lass pulls you into story from the beginning. You are a fly on the wall watching every achievement and tragedy that befalls these broken, yet resilient characters.

I would also like to note that while technically a fantasy world the historical accuracy is *chef's kiss*. It is so well written and I appreciate all the research Kennedy Sutton went through to bring us the first part of Jane's story.

Fantastic, high-steaks "will they, won't they" romance upon the high seas

The Sneaky Lass exceeded my expectations and left me craving more of the Silver Locket series. The characters are captivating in their complexities, and the emotions are intensified by the author's raw narration. It was easy to forget that I was listening to a book because Sutton made it seem as though Jane was sitting right beside me, sharing her life story like a long lost friend. Give this one a listen. It's well worth it.

The Sneaky Lass

The Sneaky Lass was fantastic and the story was gripping and at times tragic but also adventurous. I loved the voice by this author. It was enchanting. I wonder what will happen next.

I loved it!

Got to read this originally as a ARC reader and have followed Kennedy’s journey on social media from the start. She does such a good job of telling us just the beginning of Jane’s story and the crew of Sneaky Lass. Can’t wait for book 2 and the rest of the series!
