About Angel Pirate: Cannibal Camellia by Hartley Hightower:
It is a treacherous time and place to be a young woman at sea, especially one of such uncommon spirit and beauty as Camellia. When a chance encounter reveals an untapped ferocity within, her sheltered life aboard her father’s humble merchant’s vessel is forever altered. As she is charged with the care of a handsome and mysterious young prisoner, her thirst for knowledge propels her in her first unsteady steps towards womanhood. But who she is and what she is capable of are not truly tested until she meets the prisoner’s father, the charming and dangerous “king of pirates”.
In Book One of the Angel Pirate series, the conflicts of love and loyalty, passion and fear launch Camellia on a journey that will take her far beyond anything she’s known, towards the life and legend of her deepest desires.
