Some say the sky shifts were the gods doing. They believe the powerful god Lex made a game of tossing the moon and stars across the sky like dice, creating a new night sky with each roll. But notorious pirate Louie Aurum knows better. Noticing patterns in the seemingly random shifts, Louie creates her own star maps, making her the only person capable of navigating the deep sea at night.
​
When Louie is offered the opportunity to hunt for a legendary enchanted artifact, The Sands of Time, she confidently accepts. Whoever possesses the Sands will have the power to control time. While potentially catastrophic in the wrong hands, Louie struggles to resist the temptation to use the artifact to undo her tragic past.
The hunt for the treasure will not be an easy one. When Kendra-a gorgeous spy and long-time frenemy-sneaks onto Louie's ship, she has no choice but to accept her help. But trust is not something Louie's eager to spare. With the constant threat of a mutiny and a potential double-crosser on her ship, she must guard her heart at all costs.
Louie quickly realizes that she's not the only one hunting the Sands. Rival pirate and regrettable one-night stand 'Blackjack' Benny follows in her wake. He'll cut down anyone who stands in his way of obtaining not only the treasure but also Louie's secret star maps.
Commander Nathaniel Bartholomew-her first love turned worst enemy-tracks her every move. He'll stop at nothing to retrieve the treasure on behalf of the king and exact his revenge against the woman he once claimed to love.
The Thief of Tides
