Ilona Black is the oldest daughter of the Pirate King. All her life, she's wanted to be a great pirate captain, just like her father. When she's finally given the chance, however, things go terribly wrong- Ilona's younger siblings have been captured and now it's up to her to get them back.

All hope seems lost until she happens to meet the wickedly handsome Prince Mason who is having his own bad luck. He has been promised to marry a princess who he is quite certain is evil. He has no way to escape the marriage but once he meets the beautiful pirate Captain he comes up with a plan that will help them both. He will marry the daughter of the cruel king who took Ilona's siblings.

They sail away and the plan seems perfect. Mason will escape the evil princess and Ilona will get her siblings back.

But what happens when they start to fall for each other and put their whole plan in jeopardy? And what if their ship never reaches its destination at all?

The Prince and The Pirate

Mason lay on the cold, lumpy sand inside the tent with an arm thrown back beneath his head, thinking over what he had just done.  He was exhausted, and his head ached, but now he couldn't quiet his mind.

He had learned long ago, that first night in the barn with Ilona, that she didn't have experience with the opposite sex.  Not like he did.  So he should've known better than to dump her off him like some discarded thing.  He should have known that she wouldn't understand, and it would only hurt her.

He hadn't thought, though.  He had acted quickly and stupidly, concerned more with stopping himself before he went too far with her.  He should've never let things go that far to begin with.
