Floodbringer

The epic conclusion to the Tidespeaker duology! Corith must choose between her heart and her mission in this lush, salt-soaked fantasy inspired by Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park and featuring a young water mage, scheming elites, and devastating slow-burn romance.

Formerly a water mage to the elite House Shearwater, Corith risked her life to discover the truth behind her best friend's mysterious death. But she never anticipated the depth of the secrets her friend was keeping...or that in her quest to unravel them, she'd end up falling for a member of the powerful family she served.

Corith thinks she's left that part of her past behind her. But when the rebel group she's joined assigns her a new mission, she finds herself back in the Shearwaters’ orbit—and facing down Llir, the boy she left behind.

Now, to stop a dangerous new enemy, Corith and Llir must unravel twisted political conspiracies and go head to head with the most powerful and dangerous noble families in the nation. And, they must fight their feelings for one another—feelings which aren’t as dead as Corith would like to believe.

The tide in the battle for mage-folk is turning—but which way will the current take Corith and her friends?
