There are few people in the world so dangerously captivating that a single glance can send a chill through the veins. Few who carry such a potent aura of peril that even the most foolhardy soul would hesitate to step within ten metres of them. Nerissa Jones was most certainly one of those rare individuals.
Rumours say there isn't a single enemy she hasn't defeated nor a friend she hasn't betrayed. That is, until she met Alexander, the Crown Prince of the realm.
Some say Princes and Pirates don't mix, but Nerissa and Alex can't help but find their way back to one another time and time again, no matter how much trouble comes their way.
But with a prophesised battle looming, all attention turns to Nerissa and her group of villains to save the kingdom. For who else can win but a group who chooses to fight dirty?
