Serene, the heir to the largest and most powerful kingdom in the ocean never realised she wasn’t living, until the perfect life was handed to her in the form of a well suited marriage proposal. Trusting there must be more to life than marriage and forced love, Serene escapes to see what see is missing, swimming right into the arms of a hot headed and handsome pirate captain, the most feared enemy of her people. Will she trust the enemy and follow her instincts? Will she give herself over to the sexy pirate? Craving something she didn’t know she wanted and searching for something she didn’t know she needed, she will embark on the adventure of a life time. **SNEEK PEEK** I had watched the sexy pirate captain jump over the side of his ship and land perfectly on the waiting dock. He looked around with a furrowed brow subconsciously rubbing his chest, just as I was to try in vain to ease the burn. Was he looking for me? I followed him to the tavern that was a short distance from the docks. I looked through the window, enjoying the sight of him. He was tense and I wanted nothing more than to help ease his stress. But that was not what I was here for. That however all went out the window the minute I stepped into the tavern. My breath left me the minute I opened the door. I gasped as scorching heat burst from my chest. I took a breath and tried my best to hide my unease. I was a royal after all and presenting the picture of confidence was something I was trained for from a young age. As soon as I sat down next to the captain his eyes snapped to mine in suprise. "Serene." he breathed in his his sexy, gruff voice.
