Erin O'malley is a young, fiery Irish woman who rides her Irish sport horse over the hills and jumps in Ireland like the wind. She and her adopted son, Abdul are inseparable, both loving the challenge of a different kind of life. She and her brothers and uncle sail a three masted schooner called Pieces of Eight as a cruise ship with the atmosphere of an authentic pirate ship. Erin is as comfortable climbing the rigging as she is piloting the schooner as the captain. She expertly sails through cyclones, fends off modern day pirates and mesmerizes her passengers with their pirate feasts, songs and staged sword fights. Anthony Andreas, a handsome Greek is all man. He is the personal bodyguard and head of security for Luc Alexandros, a Greek business tycoon. Anthony knows what he wants, and nothing deters him when he decides to have it, and what he wants is Erin, his soulmate. Their first meeting is explosive; their fight gets hot as two strong willed personalities clash. Erin fights their growing love for her own reasons, as Anthony pushes for more. Erin's Uncle Patrick knows that when the hot fighting stops their passion erupt, as hot as molten lava from a volcano. This cruise will take you around the Indian Ocean; stop at ports from Madagascar to India to Jeddah. You'll learn the wonderful treasures at the market and souks of each port, see humpback whales, and hold your breath when they fight to keep the ship afloat during a cyclone. You'll fall in love with all the unusual animals on the schooner. Erin saves a Portuguese Waterdog that Abdul names Aine. She becomes a part of the family always at Abdul's side. You'll also meet Crackers, the parrot that has trouble controlling his naughty language; Whiskers, the cat they saved after the cyclone, and Bey, a lemur from Madagascar. Come with us on the adventure of a lifetime. You'll laugh, you'll cry and wish the cruise still sailed so you could be on it.
