Overview

HE THOUGHT HE'D BE A HERO BY NOW-AND THAT IT WOULD MEAN SOMETHING. It's 1816. The wars with France and America are over. Royal Navy career man Everard Anderson de Anglada sails the peacetime Great Lakes, demoted to captain of a tiny ten-gun schooner. When Preston D'Arcy, Everard's former lieutenant and too-handsome ex-flame, forewarns him about a court-martial they must judge, Everard is begrudgingly grateful. HE'S RADICAL, RESPECTED, UNFORGETTABLE-AND A PIRATE. On the docket, however, is Vitaliy ""Vitya"" Gray, infamous pirate captain and anti-colonial weapons smuggler. Everard has crossed paths with him before-not strictly as enemies. TOGETHER, THEY COULD BE LEGENDARY... After a hasty jailbreak, philosophical debates, and proposals-pirate marriage, no strings-Everard finds himself, his heart, and even D'Arcy commandeered: to the Gulf of México. There, piracy is nothing like he imagined, and Vitya is everything Everard ever truly wished to be. ...SO LONG AS LEGEND DOESN'T GET IN THE WAY OF LOVE. The Spanish crown looms. Dangerous secrets and betrayals come to light. Then Everard is offered a position with the revolutionary Galveston navy. Everard must decide: fulfill his desire for legacy... or stay beside the men with whom he's fallen in love and make a legacy of their own.
