The Tidebound Bargain
Overview
To save her brother from the sea, she struck a bargain with the fae who guards it.
In Gullhaven, everyone knows the rules: never give your name to the sea folk, never trust a kindness from under the Tideline, and never, ever strike a bargain.
Nerys Calloway is a twenty-seven-year-old wreck diver who has spent her life obeying those rules. Then her brother vanishes beneath the bay on the night of a killing tide, and the only one who can bring him back is Caelan Vehr, the cold, silver-haired Tidewarden of the Court of Ebb.
The price: twenty-eight days bound to him by a salt-binding, never more than a hundred paces apart, while he hunts a thief who is stealing bargains from the Tideline.
But the fae can't lie, and Caelan has been saying very careful things. Someone has wound Nerys's whole town into a two-hundred-year-old debt. The queen beneath the waves will never let go of the name she holds in her fist. And Nerys is beginning to suspect she can do something no one on this coast has done in a lifetime: unmake a bargain, if she is willing to pay the cost herself.
A slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers fae romantasy with a bargain that bites, a forced-proximity bond, a found family of misfits who argue over dinner, and a magic system where every working costs something you'll miss. For fans of fae-bargain romantasy and cozy-but-dangerous seaside fantasy.
