The Last Hour YOUR FREE BONUS: A sneak peek at the opening chapters of Paradise Cursed, Book One: Captain Cord McKinsey, a pirate cursed with immortality in 1716 for doing a good deed, now operates the Sarah Jane as a cruise ship. Doomed to remain ship-bound within the Caribbean waters, and long despaired of ever breaking his own curse, Cord becomes entwined in helping his passengers with problems that require extraordinary solutions. When his lovely Jamaican first mate, Ayanna, is cursed by a Bokor and begins changing in mind and body, taking form as a reptile, Cord risks losing the people he cares for as well as his ship-the only square footage on land or sea where pain is not his eternal companion.
