Tidebound

From USA Today bestselling author Sophie Lark comes a spellbinding dark romantasy about power, destiny, and the true cost of true love.

Princess Rowan Stellacoeur was raised to believe in true love and happy endings.

Then her family is slaughtered, her kingdom is seized, and her twin sister, Selene’s, lifeless body is taken by a vampire prince.

Now she is trapped in a stolen kingdom, betrothed to a man whose love has become an unyielding obsession—and watched over by Thane Rokeby, a ruthless swordsman with forbidden magic in his blood and a darkness no one else dares approach.

Rokeby is dangerous in all the ways Rowan should resist. He sees too much. Stands too close. Touches her like every moment of restraint costs him something. Rokeby sees the darkest, most secret parts of Rowan—and awakens powers inside her that were never meant to exist.

As war closes around Mer-de-Lune and ancient magic seeps into Rowan’s dreams, every moment with Rokeby draws her deeper into a powerful world of witches, vampires, and blood-soaked bargains. And power always demands a price.

To reclaim her life and her home, Rowan will have to become something her enemies never expected.

Something unstoppable.

Something ruthless.

And if loving Rokeby means surrendering who she was for who she must become, she may discover that some cages are cast in iron—and others are built from desire.
