Sanditon Sirens

She bargains with a sea-lord—now the tides of Sanditon decide their forbidden fate.

High summer draws England’s fashionable set to Sanditon’s glittering Regency resort and its sparkling bathing waters—but Charlotte Heyward seeks refuge, not gossip. When a fierce storm reveals a wounded sea-lord beneath the pier, her mercy forges a perilous pact: seven moon-tides to recover his stolen selkie skin, or Sanditon will drown beneath his wrath. Now Charlotte must outwit matchmakers, dodge prying eyes, and resist siren songs rising from the deep—all while hiding a secret that could sink her reputation and her heart.

Every moon-tide drags Charlotte deeper into schemes above and below the waves. On land, Tom Parker’s grand plans for Sanditon depend on investors—investors who will flee if rumors of monsters spread. Beneath the surf, Lord Taranis of the Selkie Court weakens; only Charlotte can track the thief who stole his power. Yet each midnight meeting fans a scandalous attraction. If society learns she consorts with a creature, she’ll lose family, fortune, and a respectable future. Fail him, and Sanditon will drown under blood-red tides.

Love or loyalty—when the tide turns, which will Charlotte sacrifice?
