Pirates! I absolutely love a good pirate book, and this one by Vanessa delivered. We follow the story of Declan, a broody and mysterious captain, and Aoife, an heir who flees her kingdom. This book fulfilled all my enemies to lovers wants and told a very engaging story with a plot full of twists that kept you turning the page. Not to mention the world building was fantastic! It’s a new release and I’ve already pre-ordered the sequel. The best part of this book was supporting Vanessa Rasanen who is also an indie author.
From Catherine's list on fantasy told from multiple perspectives.
This pirate tale set on the high seas has a bit of everything. The main character is both engaging and multidimensional and is a joy to follow through the book. The sharp, snarky commentary and political intrigue add for tons of twists and turns. But the best parts are the morally grey love interest and fae magic.
From Lina's list on fantasy set by the sea to warm the winter blues.
