Tides and Torment
While being forced to play husband and wife, a blind god of sight and the assassin he's shackled to realize there's another killer aboard their ship--and they are the next targets. This enemies-to-lovers murder-mystery fantasy blends their high-stakes isolation with a vicious dance between romance and ire.
"Has anyone ever told you that you look ravishing when you're dying?"
Being an indestructible, heavens-approved assassin has its downsides--like bloodstained ball gowns or getting caught and imprisoned. Luckily for Roisin, she once tricked a god into servitude, and now he has no choice but to obey her every command.
Thaddeus--aka Thadaryx, God of Sight--would love nothing more than to kill the girl holding his chains. Instead, he's forced to help her escape a dungeon. Fleeing guards and the gallows, they fake their identities, posing as husband and wife, to board an outbound ship. But shared sleeping arrangements, warring loyalties, and siren-filled waters become the least of their worries when someone starts killing passengers one by one.
After Roisin becomes a target herself, she wants vengeance. On a ship full of suspects, Thaddeus is the only one whose murderous intents she can trust. To maintain the guise of wedded bliss, she offers him a deal instead of a command, one that could mean his freedom. Play detective, and once a day he can test the limits of her indestructibility.
Bodies are piling up and time is running out. Together, Roisin and Thaddeus must navigate murder, ocean storms, and the rising tensions beginning to infiltrate their pretend marriage. With the lives of new friends on the line, they'll have to rely on each other to uncover the truth before they reach land and the killer escapes.
