Wealth, fame, and power, these were the things any pirate dreamed of.
Captain Alexander Asfour had them all.
And yet, they were never enough for a blood-thirsty captain whose cunning was matched only by his ruthlessness.
Until a violent storm forced his ship into the harbour of a Mediterranean city for repairs, Alexander did not expect fate to be waiting on land. He met James, a talented fencer, a gifted storyteller, and a man whose strange delicate charm seemed to quiet the fire raging in Alexander's heart and make him for once reflect on what his soul truly desires beyond gold and reputation.
Or so he believed.
Because James was hiding a secret woven from lace and powdered wigs, diamonds, and arranged marriages, a secret tied to a princess who vanished one stormy night, last seen by the harbor's edge.
Between duty and desire, honour and survival, and the treacherous pull of the sea, love found a crack in which to bloom.
But when the truth rises like a storm tide, will Alexander put his pride aside ,or will he seal his heart forever against the most dangerous force of all.
