Lord Asad, or Ace, as he prefers to be called, is captain of the Paradigm, an overseas trade ship. He is a risk-taker and determined to be the first man to hear the siren's song and live to tell about it. So he orders his crew to tie him to the mast while they hide below deck as the ship sails through Death's Door. To his surprise, he comes in contact with the siren. To his dismay, it's when her men are pillaging his ship.Ebba-Tyne is a siren and an elemental of the water. She is half human, half fae. Her power comes from water, but hot desert air can kill her. When a sailor comes thru Death's Door tied to the mast of his ship, she is intrigued. That is, until she notices he looks very similar to the sheik who caused the death of her father, took her mother, and killed most her men. Then he returns to collect what her men have stolen, and things heat up in more ways than one.Can a siren and a son of a sheik learn to look deeper within to accept themselves, and acknowledge the fact that enemies have fallen in love?
