The Goddess In The Shadows

A pirate crew. A family of sirens. One path to choose. When forced to marry a man she doesn't love, Lucille joins a pirate crew as a boy to escape. The other secret she has to face daily is that she can see and speak to the dead, and all thanks to the ghost who haunts the Charmaine. She hopes to start a new life on the path she's finally chosen for herself. Along the way, she learns the ropes of life on the sea and makes a few friends along the way. She just has to learn never to get too close. Captain Oliver Shaw is a man of honor. Lucille Farrow starts to notice, too. She unwillingly wants to experience the forbidden romance every chance she gets. When pirates invade the ship and kidnap Lucille, the truth begins to unravel piece by piece. The entire crew comes to discover who she really is, and then things begin to take a turn for the worst. Sirens attack one fateful night and the only hero is Lucille herself. All that's left of her now is uncertainty as she's forced to make choices that lead her away from the pirate life. She has spent so much time running away, but now her past is catching up. As the events of curses, ghosts, and murder unfold, Lucille finds herself back where she started-on board the Charmaine with the captain. After getting a vision of a war that forces her past to collide with her present, she needs to confront what she's put off long enough. Love, or hiding away from the world for the monster she's become.
