Charlee isn't your ordinary pirate. She's taken over the ship and is strong enough to keep it until Petra comes into her life. Now she's forced to come to terms with her own feminism and desires. She hadn't wanted to be a pirate. She was meant to be a pampered princess but her life changed with one fateful decision. While the decision harmed her heart, it didn't kill her. She was stronger than that.Petra has always been in love with his friend and queen, Abby. But she isn't the woman for him. When he meets Charlee, he realizes that truth finally.Together Petra and Charlee must rescue a young maiden and avoid a violent mutiny. They must also learn to trust and love again, even with the past choices they made.I loved the story because of Charlee. She's a strong woman who didn't let the circumstances keep her down. She found ways to come out on top. She fights for what she believes in. However, she also has a vulnerability in thinking that she's not good enough or deserving of forgiveness. Petra is a great partner for her because he knows about her past and sees the choices as strengths, not weaknesses.
