Second Chance

by S.R. Thornton

The minute pirate Captain Cooper of the Sea Nymph saw the Navy sloop ship, commanded by Captain Royce Stroughton, she knew a fight would ensue. The fight that left her injured didn’t last long. As Cooper lay in her bed, she listened to her men being slaughtered and knew the bullet near her heart would have her joining them soon. Instead of death, she finds herself waking up in Stoughton’s cabin where she’s questioned about being on board a famous pirate ship. To stay alive she gives her real name, Ariel Witherspoon, and plays the damsel in distress as they head back to London. On the way, they make a stop at Port Royal where she meets with other pirates and plots her revenge against the navy captain who sank her ship and killed her crew. But, is revenge still what she wants?

About the author

S.R. Thornton currently lives in the Baltimore area with her three sons where she works a 9–5 job in the inner harbor of Baltimore.

It was a few years after moving to Baltimore that her eldest son and she were comparing unique dreams they’d had. As he had before, her son insisted she write her dream down and make a book. After insisting that, although great at writing poems and short stories in school, there was no way she could write an entire novel, she finally tried it and completed her first nearly 600-page novel in three weeks. She found the experience so relaxing and enjoyable that she kept going. In the last six years S.R. Thornton has finished over 30 novels in various genres, including vampire, werewolf, witches, contemporary and historical romance that she’s now ready to share with others.
