'When the oceans run red with the blood of all men; when the skies darken and the wind falls silent; then you will know that the world has come to an end. And as you mutter your last prayer to the gods, know that this was their doing. The sea is theirs to rule and theirs alone. '. 

Jack Coolidge is fleeing life at sea, desperate for another existence, any other existence. But when war breaks out in Oldiron's distant territories, Jack finds himself propelled back into a deadly game of lies and hellish plots. Press-ganged into the King's Navy, Jack must decide where his true loyalties lie, and whether there is any escape for a man of his standing in a war of titans and rogues. 

Gwendalyn Ackers has fought her way to a position of power, high among the pirating elite in the New Age World, a position she would cling to until death. But after a mysterious child finds his way aboard her ship, things start to fall apart. She finds herself at the heart of deep-rooted conspiracy that would destroy the world she has created for herself and drag up a past she would much rather forget. 

As the lives of pirates, marauders and sailors become more and more entwined, it becomes clear that the only way to survive the war is to win in a fickle game to rule the seas.

🖤 "You will remember me," I utter, wrapping my hand tighter around the candle. "You will remember the woman who burned your world to ash. For I am a reckoning. I am vengeance. I am your demise. And no one, no man nor army shall stand in my way. Unless they also wish to burn." 🔥 🌺Corintha is an iron hearted young Mer living on Isla de las Madres, home to one of the great Mer pods of the Southern Seas. At seventeen summers, Corintha is now full grown in the eyes of her elders. Old enough to find a mate during the yearly mating season, when the young males return from exploring the world of man, far different than the calm tranquility of their island home. A land that haunts Corintha with the memories of loss, pain, and the fear that her future will be made for her. But her destiny will not be one where tradition will bind her and keep her bound to the island. Fate will pull her into the arms of Ares, the son of the pod's chief and a male that will have Corintha questioning her innermost desires. However, he will not win her heart without a fight and surviving the endless dangers that lie ahead for him, Corintha, and their motley crew of chaotic companions. The hands of fate will lead the young Mer on a journey they never thought possible.

These trials will test them, break them, and bring about a new story, a new legend for the travelers of land and sea. A villain with a thirst for blood. A creature of nightmarish myth. A monster to be feared. A title that Corintha will learn to bare with pride. 🦚 Trigger warning ⚠️- this book contains scenes of gore, violence, abuse, assault, and sexual situations.

I'm not ready to die yet. There's still so much I have to do..." "Like what?" He sighed, "I've always wanted to sign up for the army - to help us win the war so that other children don't have to be separated from their parents like we were. I need to see my dad again, make sure he's okay and not dead with a bullet in his chest. I have to... apologize to Peter for being a complete arsehole of a brother. I have to tell Susan that I'm really thankful for her making sure I'm okay, even when I was so rude to her. I have to tell Lucy that despite all the problems we had as brother and sister, I love her... I love all of them... more than they know..." Amelia heard a single sniffle as he tried to wipe away the tears at his eyes by rubbing his head against the fabric on his shoulder. "We'll get out of here, Ed, you'll be able to tell them all. I'll make sure of it."
