Salt and Sorcery

February 2026

A selkie without her skin. A witch without a voice. A ragtag pirate crew of shifters who seem hellbent on causing mayhem wherever they go.
I've spent all my life running and hiding who I am. Slipping into my sealskin is both my escape and the reason I can never stay in one place.
Then someone steals my skin. My mate vanishes. And I'm left with nowhere else to turn to other than a ship full of chaos and a crew that defies everything I know about shifters.
They're too powerful. Too strange. Like someone broke the rules of magic when they were made.
They're dangerous, damaged, and probably going to get me killed. But they're also my best shot at finding everything taken from me. And if the way they look at me is any indication, this voyage is going to get complicated.
A fast-paced fantasy romance with:
✔ Shifter pirates and a selkie heroine
✔ Fated mates, forced proximity, and found family
✔ Magic, betrayal, humour, and slow-burn steam
✔ A reverse harem that develops over the series
Perfect for readers who love swashbuckling adventures, morally grey antiheroes with surprising sweetness, and romance that's worth the wait.

Salt and Sorcery is the first in a new series, which means the book will end on a minor cliffhanger. The story starts off as a fast-paced story with a slow-burn romance and will develop in steam as our FMC grows to know the MMCs. It is a reverse harem where the FMC will end up with a happily ever after with more than one man at the end of the series. Featuring language and scenes suitable for ages 18+.
