In the chaos of war, some battles are fought with steel -- others with the soul.
Admiral Arden Lexington was raised by vengeance. After witnessing pirates slaughter her family, she devoted her life to hunting them down as part of the International Pirate Hunters Fleet -- a powerful naval militia loyal to no crown, only to the Admiral who leads them. Hardened, brilliant, and feared across the sea, Arden is a force few dare challenge.
But when a man from her past-Master of Arms, James Morgan -- is pulled from the wreckage of a sunken ship and placed under her command, Arden's world begins to fracture. The boy who once slipped into her heart has returned a man -- and with him, a quiet defiance against the life she's sentenced herself to. He doesn't judge her past-he dares her to imagine a future beyond it.
As enemies gather and betrayals surface, Arden must decide what kind of legacy she wants to leave behind-one carved in vengeance, or one built on hope.

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.
