A devout monk.
Will she continue her pirating ways or give up her sea legs to be part of his world?
Out on the open seas, Pirate Captain Rhielle savors her freedom, leading a fearless crew of lady pirates in raiding enemy ships and plundering treasures. But everything changes when a captured prize turns out to be more than she bargained for: Prince Edric.
Prince Edric is not just a prince; he's a monk, dedicated to a life of service to his Goddesses. Despite being Rhielle's prisoner, he exudes a smug superiority that both infuriates and intrigues her.
For Rhielle, falling in love is not an option, especially with a prince who represents everything she has fled. And for Edric, his devotion to the Goddesses forbids any romantic entanglements, especially with a notorious pirate.
When political schemes threaten to tear them apart, they must choose: will they continue as enemies, or will they surrender to one another?
