Description: [edit] [history]

Firestarter, Amanda Byrns sneaks aboard a smuggler's ship to steal back a pegasus taken from her family. Instead she ends up as an accidental stowaway stuck far from shore.

If the acid leaking ten-legged monsters that just escaped from the crate next to her don't kill her well there's always the krackens, the sirens, and the storms waiting over the very pretty horizon. And did someone mention a mutiny? But the dangers of the open ocean may be the least of her worries.

As she spends more time among the raggedy crew of misfits and their handsome but reclusive captain she soon realises she may be in danger of losing something even more precious. Her heart.

Sirius James has been running from his past since the first day he set sail out to sea. From a young stowaway to captain, he's always been on the move. But when a pretty redheaded witch sneaks aboard his ship and accuses him of theft he finds himself pulled in two directions, one that finally might just make him stop running and challenge his position as captain.

The first four chapters are a little slow so feel free to start at chapter 5 if you want to jump right in.

A note about the content warnings:

Swearing - minor swears (these are sailors) but nowhere close to excessive.

Sex - eventually but not in the first 55k and it'll be meeting of emotions not of fluids. This is a sensual slow burn romance. Loving and caring and maybe a little adventurous but not a porno.

Graphic violence - There may be some sword fighting and people getting stabbed or otherwise injured in various ways. It probably won't be too gruesome but I make no promises.

Sensitive Content - lots of alcohol (sailors remember), brief mentions of other drugs, and some traumatic past experiences being discussed.
