Books with author Sean Sweeney

Set sail for a world of pirates, magic, and high adventure… Long in the service of the 12th Baron Wilton, the privateer known as Paulina has reached her limit. Between a township that doesn’t care for her, the Baron assuring her pledge that she’ll go down with her last ship, and his lascivious advances toward her newest paramour, Paulina plots to betray him. She just needs a little help in the form of her all-women crew to do it. Taking four ladies along with her, Paulina takes the Good Queen Bess for her maiden voyage through the Caribe, where mystical beings and scoundrels alike look to thwart her and send her to the Realm of the Locker. But they don’t count on the steel and magical energies this quintet utilizes to stain the wine-colored waters an even darker shade.
