As A Stranger Or A Friend?
Upon the blurred line of morality and at the mercy of circumstance, two souls meet. Again. And again. And again. So, is it simply a coincidence or something more? When a young Mariel leaves home, she is instructed to lead a quiet, ignoble life. Forever. And so, determined to remain overlooked, she toils endlessly, disguised as all things plain.

Enter the raucous and free Axtapor, a nobleman turned pirate. Dashing through life like a tempest, he is resolved to live on his own terms, allowing none to stand in his way.

Little do they know just how dangerous something like that can be. *Contains mature themes, such as violence, gore, suggestive scenes, and offensive/triggering language, please read with care and at your own discretion.*Complete

Turning Tides
They told her freedom wasn't for women. She decided to prove them wrong - with a cutlass in her hand and fire in her heart. 1719, New Providence. The sun is merciless, the rum is cheap, and a woman's worth is measured by how quietly she obeys. Anne Bonny has tried to play the part - the dutiful wife, the polite dinner guest, the proper lady beneath her parasol. But Anne has never been what she's supposed to be. She's a woman born of scandal and raised on rebellion, with the wild blood of Ireland in her veins and the sea calling her name. When her husband sells their beloved boat - her last link to freedom - Anne's fury ignites something fierce and unstoppable. The polite world that once confined her begins to crumble, and in its ruins she glimpses a dangerous, thrilling possibility: life on her own terms. Drawn into the shadowy world of smugglers, sailors, and pirates, Anne finds herself torn between two impossible choices - conformity or chaos, safety or sovereignty. Every decision drags her deeper into a storm of betrayal, passion, and peril that could destroy her... or make her legend. Love, rebellion, and saltwater collide in Turning Tides, a darkly witty reimagining of the infamous Anne Bonny - the woman who refused to stay on shore and changed the course of history with nothing but her courage and her rage.

(Part of the Broken Sails series, however it can be read as a standalone book) Content Notice: Broken Sails is a story set in the brutal world of the 18th-century Golden Age of Piracy. In keeping with the historical context, this novel contains mature themes and graphic content, including: intense violence, sexual assault and harassment, kidnapping, substance abuse, and depictions of trauma and post-traumatic stress.
