BACK UPPER CORNER HAS SLIGHT BEND

The Tudors meets ACOTAR in this sweeping romantasy where sirens rule the seas, thrones are won with blood and lies, and a disgraced princess must decide if her destiny is to bow before the crown, or shatter it.

When her father beheaded her mother, Princess Elowyn Blackthorn was stripped of her titles and banished for twenty years. When she’s unexpectedly called back to court, Elowyn dares to dream it’s a second chance instead she’s tricked into a betrothal to a man she despises, she’s convinced her life is over—until her ship is seized by sirens.

In Naiadon, the castle beneath the sea, the sirens believe Elowyn is the key to uncovering the truth behind their vanishing kin and perhaps to winning the war they plan to wage on her homeland. Though held captive, Elowyn grapples with her loyalty to the kingdom that betrayed her and her growing connection to the ocean’s mysterious inhabitants.

Her only ally is fellow prisoner Captain Arlo—maddeningly handsome and fiercely determined to free his captured crew. As they plot their escape, both try to suppress the attraction to one another, knowing distraction could cost them their freedom. But while Elowyn begins to see the sirens as something more than monsters, Arlo sees only captors.

As tensions rise above and below the surface, Elowyn must decide where her loyalty with the man she’s falling for, the realm that forgot her, or the people who might finally set her free.

Book one in a gripping trilogy, this is a tale of crowns, monsters, and slow-burn romance perfect for fans of political intrigue, enemies-to-lovers tension, jaw-dropping twists, and heroines who rise from the ashes to take back their power.
