Indigo has a troubled past and there's no denying it. Tired of being scared, she sets sail aboard a private yacht, hopeful that the open waters of the Atlantic will give her and best friend Eric a much-needed respite. As if trouble followed her, the yacht catches fire. Stranded in the ocean, cold, hungry, desperate, and alone, Eric and Indi struggle to survive. Just when they think things couldn't get much worse, they are captured, held hostage by a band of modern-day pirates. Now they're in even more trouble than they could have ever imagined. What Indigo couldn't have predicted is how broodingly handsome Hendrix, their captain, is. The moment Indi lays eyes on him, she feels sparks fly and a carnal attraction she's never felt before. Hendrix is pure alpha male: hotter than hot, determined, powerful, and hard to crack. Hendrix has plans for Indi, dark plans that will put her life at risk. If only Indi could connect with him, it might be more than just lust on the line...it might save her life. Enslaved by the Ocean is a steamy romance and the first in the Criminals of the Ocean series.
