The Devil's Wedding Map
THE DEVIL'S WEDDING MAP
A Curd & Cutlass Adventure, Book One
Rafe Calder used to be the most wanted pirate captain in the southern trade. These days, the only battles he fights are with his wife over kitchen knives, and the only treasure he's after is a quiet breakfast.
Retirement was supposed to be the reward. Instead, it's the setup.
When a dead man's ledger washes ashore bearing the Calder name, Rafe learns that his mother signed away a debt thirty years before he was even born - one that's been waiting, patiently, for him to grow into the man who'd finally have to pay it.
To keep it buried, he'll need everything he swore he'd left behind: his old instincts, his wife Angelia's sharper ones, and a brother he never knew existed, who's about to become impossible to ignore. Because the man calling in the debt didn't just write the rules of the old compact - he taught Rafe every trick Rafe ever used to survive it.
Some debts don't die with the people who made them. This one just found the one man left standing who has everything to lose.
A married-couple pirate adventure with teeth - this isn't a courtship story. Rafe and Angelia are already each other's whole world; the question isn't whether they'll fall in love, it's what a thirty-year marriage is actually made of when the past comes to collect. Expect banter as sharp as the blades, family secrets that reshape everything you thought you knew, and a villain whose philosophy is more dangerous than his sword arm.
Perfect for readers who love their pirate adventures with a marriage at the center instead of a meet-cute, their found-family reveals earned instead of convenient, and their folklore left just mysterious enough to still feel like magic.
The door is never fully closed. Some debts are just getting started.
