Very Pirates of the Caribbean but with a magical fae twist. The MMC goes through a lot of growth in this one and the FMC is right there to help him through. Romance is a bit of a tense simmer that explodes in the last few chapters. It gets HOT, and keeps burning right to the end. This is my first intro to this world so I did find the world building a bit confusing (If you've read the other books from this world you may find it less confusing). It has a solid plot though, and I was able to understand enough that it was still an enjoyable read. The ending was brutal and you'll probably want to pick up the Ever Queen right after - so just go ahead and get both if you're thinking about it lol.
