A Pirate's Bounty: A Devils of the Deep Novella

Начало книги

This novella was originally published in 2011 as an erotic pirate tale. I have rewritten it, taming it somewhat from its original version, but be warned, the story itself is still quite heated…

Many of the places named within the book do exist, but I have also changed the names of some properties, towns, and names of people for the sake of the story and to fit in with the Pirates of Britannia world.

While this book is a part of the world, it takes place several hundred years in the future from my original two stories.

I do hope you enjoy this dark, pirate tale!

Best wishes,

Eliza

Below that was clearly an image in white of the top half of a man, well muscled, who held the two swords.
