Walk the Plank

BrankoDoes Blackbeard think I will stand quietly as he sells me into slavery? He's more explosive than the firecrackers in his beard, but some fates are worse than sleeping in Davy Jones's locker. His ship blocks the harbor and plantations block my escape to the south and north but while I still breathe, I won't give up my freedom. Charles Town Harbor may be buttoned up for the night, but I plundered a neighboring sloop, which would be the perfect vessel for my getaway if it weren't for the beautiful lady chained in the hull. But don't call her that-she prefers to think of herself as a vampire. From a madman Captain to a fake vampiress, I can pick'em. Can't I?MagdaMy husband's hatred of me was a thinly veiled secret in our vampire colony. What use does a male have for a figurehead wife when he has a harem? I mean, by the crown, it's 1718! No one dared to defend me against my husband, even as he faked my death and sold my body to science-while I was still using it! I barely lived through the voyage to the New World, but did I throw my life away when I made a deal with a devil? The churlish but deliciously handsome pirate who boarded my boat released me from my chains without naming his terms…Oh, how my body heats when I imagine what he'll ask of me in return...Together, the unlikely allies run from their own forms of enslavement and gather a ragtag group of hearties along the way. Blasts from battle aren't the only explosions when attractions and emotions ignite like dynamite. Will they become slaves, corpses, lovers, or masters of their destinies?Author's note: The Walk the Walk series is a friends-to-lovers romance spanning three books. Magda's previous marriage was abusive. She needs time to recover and learn to love herself. A true slow-burning romance, Walk the Plank has a low-level yet open-door heat rating with Walk the Deck at a spicier level, and Walk the Night is a steamy read. Like all treasure hunts, plundering worthy booty takes a journey…
