Only a madman would take the bargain she offers. But James Hook knows treasure when he sees it.Princess Celeste is a rare gem indeed and not the weak, simpering royal he expects. She plays right into his desires, using them to her advantage. Hook discovers far too late, he's merely a pawn in her game.
