About this book

Esmyra Blackwood, a woman raised in the shadows by a notorious pirate captain, possesses volatile, mysterious powers she barely understands. When her mentor is captured by a tyrannical king, Esmyra strikes back by kidnapping the king’s son, Draevyn Rowe. Draevyn, the realm’s only fire-wielder, is an outcast in his own palace, bound by duty and the weight of his father’s cruelty.

Their forced alliance begins as a desperate ransom negotiation but quickly spirals into an odyssey to uncover a lost kingdom submerged for a millennium. As Esmyra and Draevyn traverse treacherous waters and navigate a labyrinth of ancient secrets, the friction between her aquatic influence and his elemental fire ignites an undeniable, dangerous tension. With meddling gods manipulating the board and long-buried rivalries resurfacing, the pair must decipher who to trust in a world built on deception.

As they delve deeper into the ruins of the past, Esmyra discovers that her heritage holds the key to the kingdom’s future. She faces an impossible ultimatum: act as the world’s salvation or become the catalyst for its total destruction. Amidst shifting tides, the two must decide if their growing bond is worth the cost of their souls.

Amazing!

"In Wraith Beneath The Tides, we follow Esmyra, the daughter of a notorious pirate lord, as she embarks on a daring quest filled with secrets and adventure. Determined to gather vital information and resources for her crew and father, she stumbles upon whispers of a legendary treasure hidden on an island that seems to have vanished, its treacherous tides posing a challenge even for the most seasoned pirates. During her voyage, she encounters Prince Draevyn, who masquerades as a pirate captain. Intrigued by the mystery of the elusive island, Esmyra devises a clever plan to infiltrate his ship, posing as a damsel in distress seeking refuge. This marks the beginning of an exhilarating adventure between a fierce siren and a fire-wielding prince. As their journey unfolds, the seas brim with secrets, and Esmyra discovers the truth about her origins. Unexpectedly, she finds an ally in the prince, whom she once viewed as a rival. With her father’s life at stake, taken by the king, Esmyra is willing to risk everything—even her own safety—to save the one person she holds dear, even after uncovering the shocking truths surrounding him. This story beautifully intertwines themes of loyalty, identity, and the complexities of love and enmity, making it a thrilling read for those who enjoy tales of adventure on the high seas. I can’t wait for book 2. ["

Female Rage, Sirens, fire daddy!!!

"WOW!!! This book truly took me on a journey in the BEST WAY!! I have been in a phase of reading mermaid/siren/pirate vibe fantasy/Romantasy books and wow wow wow did this deliver! Esmyra is a total BADA** FMC and her journey throughout the book was incredible. I fell in love with Draeven….immediately and he is now my #1 fire daddy MMC! This book had me laughing, wanting to cry, worried I was gonna throw my kindle at the wall in frustration - truly the full emotional roller coaster! And the end? A total cliff hanger that has me anxiously awaiting book 2’s release in a few months! ["

Loved this!

"I devoured this book! This is what I want when I say enemies to lovers. I don’t want them lusting at each other and saying they hate each other. This book had me in a chokehold! And I’m fortunate to get to ARC book two. ["

Is book 2 out yet?!

"My Spoiler Free Review- We have been given... Pirates. Magic. Fire. Royalty. A BADASS FMC. Banter. Slow Burn. 🔥🔥and a yearning for more! Im sitting here wondering when we can get our hands on book 2... But in all reality.. We start off with a beautiful photo, map, and pronunciation guide. The number of things I say wrong... this is amazing. Esmami (will always be here name) had me hooked right off the bat with her fire cracker personality and sassy nature. The picture is painted so clear - the Night Wraith crew, the king's family, the sea, and everything in between. (Including so many other parts you need to read to pick up on, otherwise Id be here all day) At the end of this I was left staring at my kindle. You know the stare off into... what do I do now? look. BONUS... we know I love a Shadow Daddy, and it's like Em added one just for me 😘 If you love a slow burn, witty, adventure packed fantasy, you NEED to read this book. I've already been in love with Emilias writing from the Forbidden Heir, and this was absolutely incredible to follow that. Thank you so so much for the opportunity to read this amazing book! ["
