In the deep blue seas of the colonial Atlantic, naval Officer Charles Beckham wakes up to find himself wounded and in the captivity of a crew of elusive, highly successful pirates. He's determined to escape-despite the strange camaraderie of the crew, and the strikingly handsome captain that leads them-but as time passes and his allegiances fade, Charles realizes that his time aboard has put him in the path of freedom, rebellion, and maybe even love.
Meanwhile, on the coasts of a Caribbean manse, Rita Beckham searches for a brother who she knows must be alive. Her journey into the darkness of the navy's secrets and the strange, pagan magic of a secret isle sends her through a harrowing adventure, side by side with the beautiful islander who seems itching to get her out of her corset.
Witness my first piece of non-satirical Wattpad writing, tackling the intricacies of class, wealth, and militarism through the medium of gay pirate erotica.
