Ashore

Mei Lin wakes up alone on a black-sand shore with her gown in ruins, half her memory gone, and a wrecked ship dying in the surf behind her - certain the man she was meant to marry went down with it.
He didn't.
Past the shoreline is a city that shouldn't exist - lantern-lit, silent by day, and very much alive after dark. A city where the wine isn't wine, where something ancient and beautiful moves behind every shuttered window, and where no one can decide what she is, because human was never supposed to wash up here.
Then she sees him. Alive. Marked by this place in ways she doesn't understand yet, and looking at her like he's not sure if she's real or another thing this city has sent to torment him.
Getting him back should be simple.
It isn't - not with a princess who wants him for her own, a court that's starting to ask questions Mei Lin can't survive answering, and a hunger, hers and his, that has nothing to do with blood and everything to do with the wreck they survived to find each other again.
A dark, slow-burn paranormal romance about the things that outlive a shipwreck - love, memory, and the monster you didn't know you married.
