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

"Get these bodies out of here," Pierce Vane ordered to his men, stepping over Charlie's body without a second thought.  He marched to Ilona and pulled his sword, pointing it at her where she sat broken on the ground.

"You will leave here now," he said coldly, "The sun is close to rising, and the rest of the dragons will be waking.  If you're lucky, you might make it back to the camp you shared with your dead Prince before they take to the air and spot you.  I may not kill you... but that doesn't mean I wouldn't enjoy seeing a dragon do it."

Ilona looked up at him as a few last tears slid over her cheeks.  As she stared at the face of the man she knew now to be evil, her heart hardened against him in a way she had never felt before.  She had always known she hated Pierce Vane, but this was something different.  Now, her hatred wasn't good enough.  She needed to kill him.
