Navigating treacherous seas is perilous, but navigating love is even more dangerous.

When Elena’s merchant ship is attacked by ruthless pirates, she is torn from her life and imprisoned aboard the Kraken’s Revenge. Forced to serve the captain’s cruel daughters, Elena’s dream of escape fades like the distant shore. Survival means obeying orders without question, but the fire in her heart refuses to be extinguished.

Everything changes when a new prisoner is thrown into the brig—a dashing sailor named Harlan, whose defiance matches Elena’s own. Their connection is immediate, but the captain’s daughters are just as captivated by Harlan’s charm. As a forbidden romance kindles in the darkness of their confinement, Elena dares to dream of freedom once more.

But danger looms when Elena is sold to another pirate with sinister intentions. Now burdened with a secret that could change the course of history, Elena must decide how far she’s willing to go to protect Harlan and herself.

As she navigates the treacherous waters of betrayal and desire, Elena must choose between the liberty she craves and the love she cannot deny.

 

Escaping Pirates is the fourth book in the Legends of Neverland series but can be read as a stand-alone novel. If you enjoy adventure, fairy tales, clean romance, and hard-won happily ever afters, dive into Escaping Pirates today!

Also known as Becoming Hook Book 4.

Mary Mecham

Mary Mecham writes high stakes, high swoon, no spice romantasy and fairy tale retellings packed full of adventure and romances. Her greatest joy is writing snarky banter and morally grey characters.

Mary is a born and raised Texan with a love of theater and books overshadowed only by her passion for disability advocacy. After she was cast in a theatrical production of Cinderella as the Ugly Stepsister, Mary decided to give a voice and background to her character and created her first novel Ugly: The Stepsister's Story.
