A 17th century swashbuckling adventure and enemies to lovers romance with just a splash of magic.

Inès fled her opulent life as French nobility for adventure on the high seas. But when Will Sands, a handsome young pirate captain, captures her ship and holds her for ransom, she fears she’ll lose the precious independence she’s fought so hard to gain. Inès hatches a plot to sabotage her captors’ ship, but after a few shared adventures with these pirates she begins to question what it is exactly that she’s searching for.

Her whole life, she’s been preparing for this one moment.

12-year-old Charlie Sands was raised on the quiet banks of colonial Maryland, but when her guardian dies unexpectedly, she’s faced with a choice: spend the winter alone in her wooden cabin or sail in search of her seafaring parents.

Rough waters and navigation charts are the least of Charlie’s problems. When she gets captured by pirates, Charlie is determined to find a way to not only make it to her parents’ ship, but to prove to them once and for all that she’s fit to be a permanent member of their crew.

This treasure will be her undoing. So be it.

She’s willing to give up everything to find it.
