Second Star to the Left - Reimagined Fairy Tales #1

Tinker Bell breaks an unforgivable pixie law to save another. Now she's on a quest to return home by acquiring the ruby necklace stolen from the mermaid queen by pirates. Captain Hook is intrigued by the beautiful blond he sees in the pub, so he rescues her from an overzealous suitor, buys her a few drinks, and then entices her to his ship's cabin. Imagine his surprise when he awakes from his pixie dust slumber without the ruby necklace stolen from Captain Blackbeard and twice cursed by a pixie! Arrgh! When their paths cross again, they are forced to work together at the mermaid queen's behest. Will their mistrust of - or their attraction for each - other pose an obstacle to their goal? Will their mutual or unknown enemies bring about their demise?
