The price of a mermaid's freedom is a deal that will risk her heart.

As the daughter of two worlds, Nia has always been called to return to the sea. After leaving behind her mother's kingdom to live underwater in the city of merfolk, she never expected to return to the surface.

At least, not until she finds herself washed ashore and stranded with a pair of legs instead of a tail, and a gorgeous human man who's determined to help. Kyan Emrik offers her food and shelter, but more importantly, he has an unexpected solution to Nia's problem: his mother, the same sea witch who tore Nia's family apart. If she ever wants to return to the sea, her only option is to repeat history and make a bargain with the witch.

Nia has three weeks to kill a mermaid of royal blood and break the curse that took her tail, or she'll be stuck on land forever. And to make things worse, she's stuck with Kyan until she fulfills her end of the bargain. He's a distraction she can't afford, and a temptation she can't resist. Kyan's touch sets Nia aflame with longing for something more than the sea, and he makes her question everything she thought she knew about the dark history their families share.

But in such treacherous waters, trust is a dangerous gamble, and even love comes at a price.

Dive into Heir of the Tide, a spicy standalone reimagining of the Little Mermaid with an enemies-to-lovers twist, perfect for fans of Elise Kova and Sarah J. Maas. The explicit content of the Villainous Heirs series is suitable for readers 18+.

"Highly recommended for fans of Patrick Rothfuss and Robert Jordan." -BlueInk Review (starred review)

A catastrophe a thousand years ago divided the world into isolated Fragments, eventually driving most of humanity back to a premodern lifestyle. Since then, an unexplained blight has been spreading, and strange and monstrous creatures have arisen in its midst.

Cor, the son of a whisky distiller, doesn't know about any of this. His peaceful little village has been isolated for hundreds of years—until he finds a way out, wandering into another Fragment. It's rather less peaceful. But with the help of Brayleigh—a spritely redhead teen he soon befriends, who is a bit wiser to the ways of the world—maybe our sheltered whisky stillman can survive and, in time, make his way back home.

Celeste has not been so sheltered. Her family was murdered by orks at age 8; she left the Academy at 18 to travel with a merchant caravan; and now, she's the orator for the new leader of the People's Commonwealth. Everything she's dreamt of is finally in reach ... so why does it feel farther away than ever?

Deliad, the Knight-Lord of Norvester—the former kingdom replaced by the Commonwealth—would like nothing better than to confront those responsible with the edge of his halberd, Celeste included. But, with his small band of former knights stuck hiding in remote hills and half-starving, it's looking increasingly unlikely he'll ever get the chance.

Nothing could be further from their minds than the workings of a Warlock a thousand miles away, and his obsessive decade-long pursuit of vengeance. Yet as fragmented as this world is, it's also a small one. Will the hand of vengeance reach them across a thousand miles? ... Or will they, perhaps, reach him first?
