Overview

When Elise Barnett, daughter of the duke of Beauris, stows away on a merchant vessel to scandalously elope with her elegant, refined and much older art tutor, she thought she was on her way to a blissful island paradise. She could not have been more mistaken.

Discovered by the crew and almost thrown to a watery grave, Elise realizes that the ship she is now trapped on is far from the reputable merchant vessel she thought it was, but is instead one of the most infamous pirate ships to haunt the seas – The Bone Heart.

Finding herself surrounded by bloodthirsty thieves and murderers, nothing terrifies Elise quite like how captivated she is by their captain.

Captain Halliwell of The Bone Heart is cruel, arrogant and runs her ship and all aboard with an iron fist, but as Elise works to earn her place, she cannot help but see the tender side of the captain that she tries so hard to hide. Even though Captain Halliwell tries to keep her at arm’s length, neither of them can deny the desire that sparks between them.

The high seas are a dangerous place where traitors and betrayal lurk around every corner. Even if their love could survive The Bone Heart, can they?
