Some say the goddess Luck blows wind into the sails of Sneaky Lass. With the high cost of their latest skirmish with the Goranese Navy, and how Captain Bennett Holt and his crew are still chased, the last thing they feel is lucky. Docked in Grand Port for quick repairs, the crew of Sneaky Lass is desperate for men to replace their fallen shipmates, but no sane sailors are willing to take up with pirates on the run. When Dixon Ables, a man with no knowledge of ships, begs for a place among them, necessity wins over good sense and Captain Holt brings him aboard. With each passing day Dixon proves himself more than capable, catching the attention of all, but none more than Captain Bennett Holt. Every coy answer and shy glance from Dixon fuels the fire of Bennett’s curiosity. Enamored, Bennett seeks to win Dixon’s fearful heart, but the secrets that keep the young man withdrawn also keep Bennett as distracted as he is attracted. With the navy closing in and the ghosts of his past adding pressure to every decision, Bennett balances the fate of every man aboard on his shoulders. The weight of Dixon’s secrets atop it all may prove too heavy to bear. Deceptions are difficult on land, but in the close quarters of a pirate ship, they can be deadly. When Bennett Holt and Dixon Ables were thrust together aboard a pirate brig in The Sneaky Lass, it sparked a saga of desperation, love, and swashbuckling adventure on the high seas, but we only heard Dixon’s side of the story. Now, readers can experience Bennett’s perspective in this companion novel, Villains Like Me.
