Literally a world apart, sisters Maree and Tarisa can only send a letter to each other every four days with the help of magic seals. With Maree in hiding on a ship with a murdered captain and Tarisa left behind to unravel the dark politics of the court her sister fled, will they ever see each other alive again?
With two spunky female leads, the high fantasy novel Sisters of Swords and Secrets is half swashbuckling adventure, murder mystery, and romance and half court drama, love triangle, and historical suspense.
Time in the story runs at the same rate as time in our world, so readers will get updates every four days just like the sisters do.
FULL SYNOPSIS:
When Maree dressed as a boy and fled on the nethership Beastslayer, she was just trying to avoid an arranged marriage. She sailed through the portal to another world never dreaming that her deception would be discovered-or that the ship would become stranded on a toxic, magical sea after a string of vicious murders-or that Maree would be elected Captain as the only magic worker left, the crew's only hope for salvation.
Using a magical family heirloom, Maree sends a letter back to her sister Tarisa for help, only to discover Tarisa is embroiled in the aftermath of Maree's choices. The vile man Maree jilted won't give up, while Maree and Tarisa's family is being targeted by unknown enemies. Tarisa's engagement is thrown into jeopardy, her friendships strained or broken. As rumors of war with rival country Trifay are rising like smoke (after only twenty years of shaky peace) Tarisa uncovers a sinister plot of corruption half a century in the making, one the enemy is determined to see through.
Though a world apart, Maree and Tarisa begin to suspect the dangers they face are intertwined. The secret to survival for them both could be in each others' letters. Navigating matters of the heart, of life, and death, will Maree and Tarisa be able to save themselves and the ones they love?

BOUND BY FATE- IGNITED BY FIRE
Samaira lived her life bound by her father's expectations, always doing what was right. When he introduced her to Harsh, she never expected to fall for him. But just as love began to bloom, a decade-old promise shattered her world-forcing her into an engagement with Ryan Raichand, her cold, enigmatic boss and a billionaire in the gemstone industry. Ryan never wanted marriage, especially not with a woman already in love with someone else. Yet, he couldn't escape the weight of his father's word, a promise tying him to Samaira in a fate neither of them chose. Their engagement became a battlefield-filled with icy stares, clashing wills, and a pull neither of them wanted to acknowledge. Resentment simmered, unspoken emotions waged war between them, and yet, something even more dangerous lurked in the shadows. As Ryan's enemies surface, the danger becomes all too real. Ruthless rivals circle, but the real threat isn't from the outside-it's someone much closer, watching, waiting, playing a long game neither of them saw coming. As secrets unravel and betrayals cut deep, Ryan finds himself tested-his strength, his loyalty, and an unexpected protectiveness over the woman he never wanted but can no longer ignore. In a world where love and betrayal collide, Samaira and Ryan must navigate a web of deception before it's too late. But when the final truth is revealed, will their fragile bond survive-or will it shatter along with everything they once believed?Zakończone
Book One: The Iron Divide
,,THE IRON DIVIDE" For generations, war has raged across Tharador, its origins forgotten by all. Maerith hides her identity as a knight, and Calyx is the man both feared and desired. Amid masks, intrigues, and deadly proximity, she must choose: trust... or survival. ... For decades, the great Houses of Veyren and Althaire have drowned the land in endless bloodshed, their feud dividing Tharador across mist-shrouded rivers. Maerith carries the legacy of her fallen father, once loyal to House Veyren, and knows survival is a battle of steel and shadow - but nothing could prepare her for Calyx Althaire: brilliant, ruthless, and feared by all, the one man who could decide her fate with a single motion. To him, she is the key - the one who could bring his enemy to ruin. Captured, betrayed, and forced into proximity with the enemy she was trained to hate, Maerith must navigate a world where every glance hides a blade, every word carries a threat, and trust is a luxury she cannot afford. As storms rage across Tharador, alliances twist and betrayals abound, pushing Maerith and Calyx toward a destiny that neither fully controls. Their journey will demand loyalty, cunning, and the kind of courage that can change the course of kingdoms. In a land ruled by blood, lies, and shifting loyalties, only one thing is certain: Maerith will not go quietly - and neither will he. Enemies to lovers. Masks and deception. Survival, desire, and power collide in a dark fantasy world where hearts are as dangerous as swords.
