The Huntress ✓
(EDITORS PICK) In the bloody, ruthless, and decidedly uncouth world of 17th century pirates, can a woman deceive even those closest to her and survive? Bronte is forced to make some tough decisions about her life and livelihood at far too tender an age in a time and place when options for women are few. Port Royal, Jamaica, in the 17th century is only a good place to be if you're a pirate. And so, a pirate she is. A pirate's life is precarious enough without the added burden of hiding one's sex. But, if she is to survive, hide it she must. Lucien's father wishes him to take over the family merchant business but Lucien feels God has a different path; he longs to use his medical knowledge to help the less fortunate in the Caribbean. Just as he is about to embark on his God-given task, a certain pirate spoils his plans. Is he wrong about the path God has for him? Lucien is forced to work for his father and delay his plans until he can hunt down the pirate who thwarted him. He is sure he's a match for anything the pirates dish out but soon realizes he's gotten more than he bargained for and it just may cost him his life... ⭐️ Featured in Editors Pick 9/2020 Cover by @AzanthielComplete

Sea of Remnants
The sea roared, not with joy, but with fury. Hurricane Belladonna ripped through the underwater kingdom of Aquaris, tearing apart vibrant coral cities and, worst of all, separating Princess Marina from her beloved mother, Queen Mariana. Now, with scales magically transformed into legs and a heart aching for reunion, Marina walks a dangerous tightrope on the surface world. Disguised among the boisterous, rum-soaked docks and salt-laced taverns frequented by pirates, Marina plays the part of a wide-eyed landlubber, her true royal birth a perilous secret. Every hushed conversation, every discarded map, every scurvy-ridden face is a potential clue to her mother's whereabouts. Her quest is fraught with peril, shadowed by the threat of discovery and the crushing weight of her kingdom's loss. But the surface world holds more than just answers. Amidst the raucous clamor of a pirate den, a melody cuts through the chaos. It's Vam, a lanky, sun-kissed banjoist with eyes that dance like seafoam and a smile that disarms even the most hardened buccaneer. Marina, initially drawn by his music, finds herself unexpectedly captivated by his warmth and irreverent charm. Under a canvas of unfamiliar stars, their souls intertwine, a melody of two worlds finding perfect harmony for one unforgettable night. Their clandestine connection ignites a perilous journey, intertwining Marina's urgent search with a forbidden, intoxicating love. As she navigates treacherous waters, dodging suspicious eyes and deciphering cryptic clues, Marina is torn. Will she find her mother and reclaim her past, or will Vam and the exhilarating freedom of the surface world lead her down a path she truly wants to be on - a path where her destiny is her own to choose, even if it means defying the very tides that molded her? It's an action-romance filled adventure that will force Marina to discover not just her queen, but the queen she was always meant to be.
The 3 Tides to find her
She didn't think she mattered. Not in a world that called her too loud, too soft, too much, or not enough.

Three mysterious men. One missing girl. A dance beneath the stars. And a darkness that's been watching from the shadows. Solace. Axel. Jude. Each man is pulled toward her without knowing why. Each carries secrets that could unravel everything. As the ship sails through moonlit waters, tension deepens, sparks ignite, and a dangerous game begins-one that might cost more than just hearts. Caught between who she was and who she's becoming, she'll have to decide: Will she let herself be seen? Loved? Chosen? Because someone else is watching. And they don't want her to survive. A romantic suspense full of mystery, devotion, and the quiet power of finally being enough.Complete
