Book 2: The Tailor’s Escape

Trouble comes when you marry a pirate.

While at sea, he is betrayed and captured by merfolk and then forced to become The High Witch’s personal tailor. Antonio must use his intelligence, excellent dancing, and skill with thread to weave his way home, while Mabel must return to her pirating past to protect him. However, Antonio’s freedom risks a far steeper price than he dares pay: losing his Mabel forever.
