In 1728 Lysette de la Rue was sold by her husband to the Kingdom of France as a means to pay off his debt to the crown. In turn, France packed up Lysette, along with a few hundred other destitute women and sent them to their colony of New Orleans to populate the territory with nothing but a single trunk to their name. But these women had no say in the matter, and while they were being sold yet again at a Quadroon Ball, Lysette was bought by the most scandalously dangerous group of men. The Arceneaux family of French pirates were in need of a female for their ship, the Reckless, and Lysette looked to fit the bill, but her unwillingness to keep her hands free of blood was going to be a problem. This woman came with a past, and as the Arceneaux's soon find out, nothing will stop her from getting revenge. Each of the men will have their role to play in Lysette getting what she wants, but will the one she unintentionally falls for accept her in return, or will she get broken yet again?
