Sent on a mission to retrieve an ancient hidden map—the key to a legendary treasure trove—seventeen-year-old pirate captain Alosa deliberately allows herself to be captured by her enemies, giving her the perfect opportunity to search their ship.
More than a match for the ruthless pirate crew, Alosa has only one thing standing between her and the map: her captor, the unexpectedly clever and unfairly attractive first mate, Riden. But not to worry, for Alosa has a few tricks up her sleeve, and no lone pirate can stop the Daughter of the Pirate King.

Arc provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Full review to come February 21, 2017.
Why are there not more pirate books out there? Honestly! It's literally a whole realm of stories that have barely been explored. Not only are pirates cunning thieves, but they perfectly balance between cut-throat scoundrels and honorable comrades. And, with the whole sea as your setting, there's infinite room for adventure.
Daughter of the Pirate King follows a strong and cunning captain as she purposely gets captured by a rival ship. Not only does she have to hide her many strengths and play the weak prisoner, but she also has to deal with the KINDA ADORABLE first mate, the only one who truly challenges her. With (multiple) knives up her sleeve, this chick is determined to get what she came for.
