It was! I saw it on the shelf at B&N but put it back down because I wasn't sold on an HEA/HFN for a gay couple in the Georgian Navy. (Brutal life, court martial and possibly hanging if caught? Didn't seem like HEA material.) But SarahF said it was very good, then posted a review at Dear Author that intrigued me, so I picked up a copy. And it lived up to her review :D
