Men fear a woman on the sea. They say women bring about bad luck and anger from the sea gods. Estella Bohen fears being aboard the ship and among the pirates who kidnapped her for her abilities. It was her family who used their magic to tame the beasts of the sea decades ago, but it was the vagabonds who wanted to free the beast. Neither on land nor at sea does Estella feel in control of her own future, but as the notoriously brutal Captain Edward Laggatt hunts her down, she has no choice but to trust the same men who captured her.
She Tames The Sea is an adult, dark fantasy novel that explores complex familial issues and is inspired by mythology, lore and magic.
Chained in the deepest bowels of Captain Keres’ ship, Estella Bohem has lost everything—her freedom, her father’s safety, and the trust she placed in Dane. With her heart shattered by his betrayal, she has only one chance to reclaim her destiny.
To break the Pirate Lords’ Bonds and free the witches of Salvus Island, Estella must steal back her family’s grimoire and shatter its seal before the ruthless Pirate King Moritie and his cunning witch, Ines Laurent, bind her—and the sea beast she commands—to their will.
But survival on the high seas demands treacherous alliances. As war brews and the Land Kings set their sights on Moritie’s stronghold, Estella must outmaneuver the most cutthroat players in a deadly game of power, deception, and magic.
With time running out, one question remains: Can she tame the Kings—before they tame her?
