To Pillage a Pirate
A Scandalous Adventure at Seas Series
by Heather C. Myers
A Robin Hood pirate captain encounters a saucy barmaid with a dark secret that threatens to ruin both of their lives.
Belle has no intention of returning to Port Royal and to a life she wants to forget. She needs to get off Tortuga and start a new chapter in her life, not take a step back. Everyone, including her family, think she’s dead…and she plans to keep it that way.
Captain Donovan offers her a way off Tortuga in exchange for her services: posing as his bride to gain trust from a wealthy tradesman. But Belle soon realizes the pirate’s plan to pillage and plunder the tradesman’s estate will only draw attention to Belle’s attempt to escape.
After all, the wealthy tradesman is Belle’s father.
But Belle’s life isn’t the only one hanging in the balance. Donovan is wanted for his multiple crimes against the Crown. If he’s discovered, he'll be hanged on the gallows, and Belle’s haunting, secret past may make her more of a risk than an asset.
Belle and Donovan have nowhere else to turn but to each other, but accepting one another’s help could ruin everything.

Momma Says: 4 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐
That cover! I couldn't look at that cover and not want to read this book. If you don't love pirates when you start this tale, you will by the time you finish. The story is full of adventure, danger, and plenty of romance to make our hearts all a-flutter. From the time the swoon-worth and arrogant Captain Donovan meets the sassy, take no guff Belle, the sparks fly. Even when they're butting heads, the chemistry is there, and what starts as a mutually beneficial agreement grows into so much more. We actually get two romances in this one, but the focus is on Belle and her Captain. From port to port, in and out of danger, these wonderful characters pulled me in and didn't let go. This is the beginning of a series, but we do get a happy for now ending in this story that is fast-paced, engaging, and so much fun!
