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

The water in the pool was still chilly from the rain, but that didn't deter the couple from going in it. They barely made it to the banks before they were pulling off one another's clothes. They had started to pull off their boots, belts, and anything else that was expendable as soon as the pool came in sight. Now there was a trail of discarded items behind them.

Mason dropped into the water first, hissing through his teeth when the cold hit him. He held out his arms for Ilona, who pulled her hair free of its braid before going to him. She gasped when the cold waters touched her skin, but Mason quickly locked his mouth to hers in a kiss before pulling them both under. When they came up moments later, she was clinging to him and shivering.

"W-We have to get out," she stammered. "It's t-too cold."

"Oh, no no no, love," Mason smirked, "I was promised a wash if I agreed to let you go with me tonight."
