Title: Tidebound Hearts

Blurb:

In this dark and twisted fairytale mashup, two worlds collide when a rebellious princess and a restless mermaid strike a dangerous bargain.

Estella, a grieving royal suffocating under the rule of her cruel stepmother, is being forced into marriage with the cold and mysterious Prince of Dowerwere-a beastly man with secrets darker than the forest he rules. Desperate to escape her fate, she flees into a stormy sea with only her dog for company.

Beneath those very waves, Ariel longs for the world above. Trapped under the weight of duty and a fiercely protective father, she aches for connection-something more than saltwater and shadows.

When Estella's boat is caught in a supernatural whirlpool, Ariel saves her from drowning, and the two forge an unexpected bond. But lurking nearby is the cunning sea witch, Ursula, who offers them a sinister solution: they may switch lives for three days. Ariel must stop the forced marriage and find a deadly hidden poison. Estella must steal the heart-and crown-of the Sea Prince. If either fails, they'll become Ursula's eternal slaves.

Before they can refuse, the spell is cast. Now, Ariel wakes in a strange body with legs, in a kingdom that wants to use her. Estella awakens under the sea with a tail, pursued by cruel mermaids and trapped in a palace where nothing is as it seems.

With time running out, two girls must navigate treachery, power, and their own identities to rewrite their destinies-or drown in someone else's.

Perfect for fans of twisted fairytales, morally gray heroines, and enemies-to-allies tropes with a splash of myth and magic.All Rights Reserved

The Royal Breeder by Nessie_Brookes

In the kingdom of Volsavy, where women are scarce and treated as commodities, a brutal tradition has been established: women are bought, sold, and forced into breeding to ensure the survival of the royal bloodline. The five ruthless princes rule with cruelty, each seeking to claim women for their twisted purposes. When Princess Aurora of the Zaverian Kingdom is captured during a brutal war, she becomes a pawn in their violent world. Stripped of her identity, she is forced to endure torment and humiliation as the princes fight for control over her. In Volsavy, women are nothing more than vessels for breeding and pleasure, and Aurora is no exception. But as she is pushed further into despair, Aurora finds a spark of resistance deep within. Surrounded by cruelty and exploitation, she must navigate the horrifying traditions of Volsavy, using her strength to survive and fight back before she loses everything, including herself. Now she is their royal breeder. ........................................ I watched our little princess whimpering in her restraints, hands cuffed above her head and legs tied apart, still tired and almost unconscious of her actions. Her body is glazing with a thin film of sweat, and she is dripping our fluid out of her. Her eyes are blindfolded, and her mouth is gagged, so she breaks into another cry when Dante raises the whip in the air and hits her. ******Previously deleted***** 📩 To My Dear Readers Hey love, it's Nessie, author of The Royal Breeder.

Your Blood: The Sweetest Delight by ash_creates727

When their coup fails and his entire pack gets scattered, either slaughtered or taken as blood slaves, Luke must escape the vampire estate, rescue what's left of his pack, rebuilt their legacy and plot his revenge. And if that requires forging a desperate pact with a half-vampire, despite his deep-seated hatred towards his kind, then so be it. *** "Want me to slaughter those blood sucking bastards for you, wolfie? ~" That's how Luke, the wounded, furious next-in-line alpha of the Direwyn pack, met Alex: a dangerously handsome half-vampire imprisoned and starving in the deepest dungeons. Forced to rely on each other, and with revenge being the common aim, an uneasy deal is struck between the two. And all of a sudden, everything becomes three parts survival, two parts snark, and one very messy, combustible attraction. And as hidden truths begin to surface and long-buried secrets come to light, Luke and Alex must decide what matters more - vengeance, or the sinister force that threatens their very existence. Will they cling to their hatred for the Velmires, or will they be forced to rekindle their hostilities and face this new threat together... even if it means joining hands with the very monsters they once swore to destroy? *** If you're more of a finished-story reader (someone who loves reading 'completed' stories mostly, I don't know what that's called lol), then don't start reading now! Save it instead to a reading list, or simply your library! And read once I've uploaded all the chapters! It's mostly a comfort read, so I'd recommend reading when you're in for the long haul (It's a fantasy romance after all!) [I own the cover image.

However, when monsters from Alvar's world kidnap my best friend, I find myself whisked away to his realm marrying him anyway.

Red's Wolves by druidrose

Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears. But they thought to use her to their advantage...to put fear in their own people's hearts and make them bend the knee. Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023

The Siren Song of Mareveila by Selenaannagg

Book Description: In a kingdom nestled by the sea, where beauty masks danger and politics are as shifting as the tides, a fragile peace is shattered when rumors of sirens prove true-and deadly. When the beloved prince is lured into the ocean by an enchanting song and never returns, the king launches a brutal hunt, slaughtering the creatures of the deep in his grief and rage. But vengeance never comes without consequence. Beneath the waves, the Sea King mourns two daughters lost to the blades of men. And in his fury, he prepares for war. As his court begins to fracture, one of his sons, Prince Virel, is tasked with a mission of seduction and revenge: lure the human king's only daughter, Princess Helena, and destroy her. What begins as a plan to break her becomes something far more dangerous. Because Helena is not the naive royal Virel expected-she is fierce, clever, and scarred by grief of her own. And when betrayal crashes over both their worlds, neither is prepared for the ruin... or the spark. Now, alliances are shifting. Kings are scheming. And amidst whispers of war and the shadows of drowned love, a new question emerges: Can peace be born between two enemies bound by blood and heartbreak? Or will love drown where vengeance reigns? For fans of dark fantasy, enemies-to-lovers, political intrigue, and star-crossed fates, this sweeping tale of sea and sorrow will pull you beneath the surface... and refuse to let go.

Beauty and Beastly | ✓ by shimmeringfire

THIS BOOK IS COMPLETED but it will be HEAVILY EDITED and have things added to it in the future. I wrote this book when I was much younger. I didn't expect it to reach this amount of popularity so I will devote my time to bettering it in the future. ------------------ Every year, in our village and the neighbouring villages, we encounter, on what is suppose to be the most divine and celebrated day of the year, a visit from the 'big bad wolf'. At least that's what the children call him. Adults like to call him "inhuman" or a "wild ravenous monster". However, the majority settle for "beast". No one knows why he ruins this specific day for us, the day we can celebrate our species: werewolves. Some despise him for taking this day from us and forcefully exchanging our merry and joyful laughs to screams of fear. When that specific day of the year approaches us, none of us are ever prepared for it. He always comes at night. We are told to lock our windows, draw our curtains and our doors. We are told to hide. There's one main rule that we have: don't look at him. Because if you do, no one knows what'll happen to you. Maybe that's the worse part, not knowing your fate. Not knowing the outcome of your foolish actions. If he comes roaming your streets, you have a right to be scared. Us "maidens" are always encouraged to hide ourselves the most, it's women that he supposedly wants more. However, I believe that that is a cautionary excuse. He'll take you, no matter how old or how young, no matter how innocent or how corrupt, no matter your gender, all it takes is a look. Either he looks at you, or you look at him, or you both exchange looks. Either way, his senses will pick you up, and you can't hide. It'll be too late. The amazing cover is by @-blackrogue. The amazing aesthetics in this book are by @mackreadsbooks24 Highest Rankings: 1st in #werewolflove 1st in #fierce 1st in #defiant 1st in #feminism 1st in #monster + many others
