BREAK WIDE THE SEA

A cursed legacy. A brutal sea. A dangerous love.  

​

The seafaring humans of Kirkrell are plagued by finfolk—bloodthirsty fae who haunt the seas, sinking ships and cursing bloodlines. Only by hunting magical whales can Kirkrell survive.

Nineteen-year-old Annie Fairfax is heir to the whaling empire, but her family’s success came at a deadly cost: a curse that turns heartbreak into monstrous transformation. After the shipwreck that killed her parents, scales now spread up Annie’s arms, claws sprout from her fingertips—and the curse is worsening.

When she learns her fiancé, August, is plotting to take over the company, Annie strikes a secret bargain with Silas Price, a disreputable young captain—half-finfolk, half-human. He agrees to help her seek the finfolk queen, who can lift the curse if Annie agrees to end whaling forever.

As the journey tests her loyalties, Annie finds her relationship with August unraveling while a dangerous bond with Silas deepens. But Silas is hiding dark secrets of his own. Secrets that will force Annie to choose between love and the legacy her parents left behind.
