Born to privilege, called to service, trained for command, seventeen-year-old Lieutenant Nile Greysik finally gets the chance to prove herself a leader. As she takes charge of a captured enemy ship, her orders will take her through hostile waters and stormy seas with a hold full of prisoners, a skeptical crew, and a handsome first mate whose every move undermines her confidence. To navigate to safe harbor, Nile must earn the crew’s trust . . . but first she must dare to trust herself.
Review
This month has been a month of firsts, I recently stumbled onto Alex Lidell's book with the help of The Black Mage series author Rachel Carter. After reading this novella I can't wait to read more. I'm a sucker for strong female leads. If that's your cup of tea or in my case cup of coffee, you will really want to check this out.
Nile is smart and strong, though it's not always in a physical sense. I don't know how many seventeen year old's that can command a ship. Let alone an enemies ship, containing some of the previous sailors still on it. And just like the title said, its her first command. Can she handle this job or will she fail at her first mission?
