A Star to Sail By

(2023)
A novel by

Kidnapped by pirates, a naval officer is torn between duty and desire.

Billy knows no greater joy than the life of a pirate, where no man is his master and his destination is the horizon. Aboard the most beautiful ship to sail the seas, he revels in his freedom. But his world changes when his captain tasks him with an unexpected duty—guarding the naval officer they've compelled to join their crew. Billy’s hatred for the navy burns stronger than the Caribbean sun.

Crispin Merrick's deepest yearning has always been to command a vessel in the Royal Navy. Stripped of his duties after the war, he’s reduced to serving on a merchant ship. When marauding pirates board the vessel and abduct him, his dreams of naval glory have never seemed further away.

When disaster strikes the pirate ship, Billy and Crispin face a desperate fight for survival. They must set aside their animosity and join forces. But trust is a precious commodity, and it's in woefully short supply when they loathe everything the other stands for.
