My Bonny Light Horseman is the sixth installment in the "Bloody Jack Faber" series by L.A. Meyer.
In this book we find the lovable Jacky sailing the seas as an honest shipping company captain. (Her own Faber Shipping company.) Of course things can't stay pleasant and she's taken by the British, then French Navy and then forced into the British Intelligence as a spy! (What they've been trying to do for, what- three books now?)
She is installed in Paris as a dancing girl to get information from Napoleon's men, and then finds herself once again incognito as a "boy" in the French army! Not as much singing and dancing takes place (they are at war you know.)
Napoleon himself makes an appearance and the Legion of Honor medal is given to someone...
Many of Jacky's past crushes make another appearance (Randall, Joseph, Jaimy) and a new one also falls for the famous pirate.
I can't seem to like Jaimy as much as I did despite his circling the globe for Jacky. He's a bit foofy for me for some reason. I do however find Joseph Jarrod VERY interesting and secretly wish she'd choose him instead...
Now on to the next book!
