Being a Princess is a manageable title yet holds great responsibility. Ardeena learned this lesson when the death of her father ensures her coronation as the new queen of Gantrick. Ardeena is left to flee on a boat from being found by her family, escaping her title of queen. Taken abroad, a trade ship, she meets Careen, a notorious pirate.
Careen is on a mission to receive the bounty on Ardeena's head and send her off in return for the prize. Making it out to Ardeena, they were taking her to safety, yet that was far from her intentions. Careen must risk venturing back into the treacherous sea to the kingdom of Gantrick and keep the truth from Ardeena. War is brewing, and they face more than just dangerous smugglers and sea monsters. As Ardeena travels further into the depths of the ocean, she soon discovers more than a map to the golden treasure, but a curse about to plague her people.
She must choose between her love of ocean spray, the growing friendship with the pirate queen, and the crown she must hold.

The Sole Prince
[ Only the ocean can bring a prince and a pirate together, only the sea can keep their secrets, and only the waves can tear them apart. ] [ COMPLETED - 80K Words] [ LGBT Historical Romance ] [ FEATURED ] James Serrio is supposed to be a prince, not a prisoner rotting away in the bottom of a pirate ship. His future was royalty, not death in a grimy hunk of wood, but it seems that fate had a different plan. Just when things couldn't seem to get worse, another ship attacks, and James is starting his prisoner journey all over again. But these new pirates are different, to say the least, especially Sage Morrow, the captain, with his black coat, gold buttons, sharp jawline, and steel-blue eyes. There's something about the captain that reminds James of a fire on a cold day. And, there's something about the new prisoner that reminds Sage of home. But there are more important things for James to focus on than a man, like the fact he's somewhere on the vast ocean, in a ship full of hungry pirates, with nothing more than a necklace and a quick brain to call his own. The Sole Prince is the story of James Serrio and Sage Morrow, and their consequential fate after running into each other smack dab in the middle of nowhere.
