Blood Sails

A boy with legendary magic. A cursed pirate captain. An eternal ship. Will Ilyanson has a secret which he keeps close to his chest, even though it could save him from his mundane existence as the son of a merchant who has decided to marry him off to a business partner. But, his secret saves his life when he is captured by the infamous Captain James Carnway and the crew of the Phoenix, the deadliest pirate ship on the seas. Will finds himself bound to the infuriating captain and discovers the darker parts of himself as he enters the world of magic, pirates and monsters.
James is handsome, twisted and brutal, but his crew all claim he rescued them from worse fates and set them free. Exactly what Will has been craving his whole life. The Phoenix battles deadly storms and other pirates on a quest to break their captain from his curse, all while they strive to stay one step ahead of the Merchants and Will's fiancé who desperately wants him back. Can the only man Will trusts be the one holding him prisoner? And how far into the dark is he willing to go to save his new family and his freedom?
