Caspian Atlas has been hunting an elusive treasure his entire life. When he finally locates the last piece of his map, it just so happens to come with a string attached. Charlotte Wright being that string. The daughter of a mapmaker and the holder of the final piece. However, she refuses to give up her map unless he gives her what she's always wanted.
Freedom.
Charlotte propositions the pirate captain to marry her in order to gain said freedom. With his last name, she can do as she wishes. She can leave the island as she's always dreamed of. She can own property under his name. She can keep her business running without her father. And all she has to do is marry the man whose crew kidnapped her, give him the piece of a map she's been admiring since she was a child, then pack her bags and run off.
No looking back.
Except, even the best-laid plans often go awry.
To get his treasure, Caspian agrees to marry the naive girl, though he soon realizes he may have been the naïve one himself. His new wife isn't someone he wants to let go of. So, it's a good thing Caspian is a man who gets what he wants, and all he has to do to get it is...corrupt Charlotte. Turn her into his monster in the dark. A villain. An outlaw. A pirate.
But how does one make a villain?
What does it take to turn a seemingly good person evil?
And how far is Caspian willing to go?
