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

To Ilona's surprise, Anja decided none of her wounds were so bad that they needed stitches. She washed and wrapped the ones that needed it. She was only just finishing the one on Ilona's thigh when a noise came from the mouth of the cave.

"I-I'm sorry," Mason apologized quickly as he pulled himself inside. "I'll keep my back to you both if you'd like, but I... I'd just really rather be in here."

Anja rolled her eyes but smiled fondly at the man. "You're fine, Mace. We've just finished."

"Oh, good," he breathed, his whole body visibly relaxing.

Ilona looked up at the handsome face of the man before her and felt her heart ache with love for him. She was glad he had come back so soon because being away from him had been starting to make her anxious.
