When Rufus is ordered to the Admiralty Office, he receives new orders that are unlike any he has ever had before. The last thing he wants to do is transport the Admiral’s daughter all the way from Brazil. His crew are men of action, not babysitters. Thankfully, before he can leave port, his orders swiftly change. Unfortunately, Abigail has been kidnapped by the ruthless French pirate, Turenot. With the prospect of being able to sink, burn, or take the Amarante as a prize fuelling their thirst for battle, Rufus and his crew set sail for Brazil, and Abigail.
Locating the Amarante is easy for an experienced Captain like Rufus. Retrieving Abigail proves to be considerably harder. This voyage brings the crew many challenges; raging seas, illness, injury, and rebellion, which all threaten to tear the ship apart. To add to that, Rufus has to battle with his desire for the one woman he knew he should never touch; the Admiral’s daughter the woman who Turenot also has an unhealthy interest in. Can this Captain ever find his happy ever after? Just how far will he have to go to keep Abigail safe, and out of Turenot’s clutches? More importantly, will he have to sacrifice the love of his life for a chance at happiness?
