Her heart may belong to the sea, but when duty calls, Tryniti Brooke de Láuront sacrifices her desires for a life on the throne. But did she make the right choice? Tryniti has all the class of a well-trained, French royal and the fortitude of a sea-fearing pirate. This combination leaves those around her reeling and bowing before her whether she wants them to or not. However, her dual life holds many dark secrets, one of which only her family knows: that she isn’t any old pirate but The Black Rogue, a.k.a. the most fearsome swashbuckler who ever sailed the seven seas. Her dreams of sailing until the end of her days are cut short when she receives a letter from her uncle, King Louis XVI, demanding her return so that she may marry and take her place on the French throne. Tryniti’s entire world is thrown into chaos as she finds scoundrels and familiar faces within the court. One of which is Captain Sean Reilly, the man her uncle has procured for her hand in marriage. Now, she must sift through traitors and lovers while fighting for her right to rule, whether that’s all of France or the seas her heart belongs to. The Black Rogue sets sail on a tale of love, betrayal, and sparks are flying more than just cannon fire. Tropes: Enemies to Lovers, Historical Romance, Regency Romance, French Revolution era, Arranged Marriage, Royalty, Pirates, 4 pepper spice level.
