(Alternate cover edition of ASIN B07QLJK4J6.) Margery Fields’ father was pressed into service by the notorious Black Shark pirate crew when she was nine-years-old. Unfortunately, the skilled surgeon and single father had his only child in tow at the time—her. To protect her from the pirates the last ten years, he has raised her as his “son” and apprentice in the ship’s sick bay. "Fix-It" John, one of the ship’s carpenters, has spent way too much time in the sick bay over the years from all the abuses he’s endured from the pirates, which makes him the first person to discover Margery’s secret. He vows to protect the youngest Doc Fields with his life and begins to plot their escape, while privately dreaming of courting her some day. Escaping won’t be easy, though, beneath the ever-watchful gaze of the new boatswain, Randolph Larson. Margery wants to despise him as much as she despised the last cruel bo’sun, but he’s the first pirate who’s ever visited the sick bay and shown any interest whatsoever in the wellbeing of her patients. As their feared Spanish Capitan prepares to engage fire with a corporate cargo ship, she is forced to depend on both John and Randolph for her safety and discovers she has not one but two men vying to win her heart on the savage waters of the Pacific!
