Grace Harper was just a normal girl in the 1900's. The world had been harsh to her since birth. Her mother despised her for her beauty and her father treated her like dirt, as most woman were treated.
She had never asked for this life... but everyday she wished upon the stars and crossed her fingers, praying for a great man to take her away from this horrible place.
One day Grace's father, Thomas, came home with news: he had chosen Grace's husband and they were to marry immediately.
At first Grace begged for her father to understand that she wanted to fall in love and marry someone of her own choosing. Thomas did not budge.
Finally, Grace had met her husband, a handsome man from a wealthy family. At first she had hated him and all his proper manners... then she learnt the secret behind her husband. Jacob was a pirate.
Grace fell head over heels, and then it was time for Jacob to depart on a dangerous journey across the seas. She couldn't bare to be away from her true love, so behind Jacobs back she sneaks onto the pirate ship and secretly joins them on their adventures.
Jacobs crew mates find her hiding away and she is tossed.... out of the ship... and left to float down to the bottom of the ocean. Never to be seen again.
Little did the pirates know, in the depths of the ocean Grace was not dead. For her tied legs had transformed into a tail and she was allowed to breath again, for she had formed gills. She was a siren.
Hundreds of years later and Grace still remains as she is, at the bottom of the ocean, killing any sea men who travel into HER seas.
One day she stumbles across a ship and sees a beautiful man, who looks just like her beloved Jacob.
What happens when Jacob sees her? What will she do?? Will she fall in love again or take her revenge?

Yet, against all logic, I feel it-I feel the heat rising beneath my skin . The mere idea of his touch sends shivers down my spine, igniting sensations that I desperately want to ignore. This isn't right. I shouldn't crave the presence of someone I despise, but my body betrays me, responding to him in ways that my mind fiercely rejects. He stands so close that his breath fans across my face, warm and intimate, stirring emotions that I refuse to acknowledge. A slight movement is all it would take for our lips to meet, for this unbearable tension to shatter into something far more dangerous. His hands are braced on either side of my head, trapping me, yet he doesn't need to touch me to make me feel trapped. His body hovers just out of reach, yet I can sense him, every inch of him, as if the air itself is an extension of his presence. I shouldn't desire this man. I shouldn't want to close the gap, to feel the press of his body against mine. I should be repulsed, disgusted by how my thoughts betray my hatred. But my body doesn't listen to reason , it yearns for what it shouldn't, driven by instincts I can't control. I despise him-my enemy- My rival-but the line between hatred and desire is blurring, and I'm terrified of which side I might fall on. {π πππΊππ½πΊπ πππΎ } | | Mature content 18+| |Complete

Siren Song (The Fated #1)
Iliana Katrakis couldn't care less about the will of the gods, and she's certain they feel the same way about her. After all, it's rare for the god-touched to live normal lives--and that's all she wants. Having spent the last three years aboard the merchant ship Airlea, Iliana couldn't be happier. Sure, her best friend Kain is the only one who knows she's a girl, but it's a good life. The work is simple, and her shipmates are the closest thing to a family she has. Fate, however, is not on her side. A storm tosses the Airlea wildly off course. Within the day, she's stranded, alone and injured, on a foggy island known only as Inna's Cove. She's given a choice: become one of the islands' goddess blessed sirens and rescue her best friend, or take her chance with the monster-infested woods. The choice seems obvious. That is, until the mercenaries arrive. Their captain wants a siren--and not even the threat of the goddess' wrath will change his mind. **Cover by MoranaComplete

Waveborn
Cass has no memories of her parents, only impossible dreams of waves and orcas and, sometimes, her mother's voice. When she and her adopted aunt return to the Pacific Northwest island--where her parents died twelve years before--Cass hopes the place will trigger long-buried memories. Instead, she discovers that the impossible is real, and that history is about to repeat itself. Unless she can stop it. ***Teaser*** The water hit with such a shock of cold that Cass thought she was going to pedal up and out of it again like some cartoon character. Instead, she flailed and splashed and smashed one arm against a piling as salt water poured into her raincoat & filled her shoes. "How do you like it?" Jason yelled. She spun until she could make out his form, black against gray sky. "What?" she sputtered. She dragged one arm from the water long enough to shove wet hair from her face. Jason became clearer: black hair dark above his yellow raincoat, arms crossed over his chest. "What the hell are you talking about?" "I asked how you like it, going for a swim in this water." She was open-mouthed with disbelief. It was a bad idea; a surge lifted her and slapped salt water into her mouth. Bile burned her throat as she coughed and all the while she was still flailing at the water, fighting the drag of shoes and clothes to keep afloat. She should kick them off-that's what you were supposed to do if you fell into the ocean with your clothes on-but she was only a dozen feet from the dock. Besides, it was her only coat. Jason watched her the way she'd watch a barracuda. "I know you're following me." "Following you?" What. The. Hell. She gave a mighty kick and tossed her coat onto the dock. Jason just stood there. "I nearly drowned last week, you know that? Now you show up as if nothing happened." "Last week," Cass said slowly, "I was in Argentina." Whatever he'd seen, it wasn't her.Complete
