🌊 🏴‍☠️ First Line Friday! 🏴‍☠️ 🌊
Can you tell Elayna’s a little bitter about the whole marriage idea? 😂
There are definitely a few aspects to The Bone Debt that give off Bridgerton vibes (marriage of convenience, dear gentle reader) but….ya know, with a super hot pirate, a lady who poìsons bad husbands, and enough scandals to fill Lady Whistledown’s column 😉

I loved this trend so here’s me!
Do we share anything in common? I’d love to know!

I’m 34, living in Minnesota, currently a romantasy author with a complete duology out and a pirate romantasy coming in November! ARCs open now 😉

Lovely to be here with you all!

The official book description for The Bone Debt!
Be sure to comment “ARC” to get the signup!

I wrote this book largely due to my love of the Pirates of the Caribbean (mostly the first three…although I did watch 4 and 5 but they just kinda lost something ya know?).
This book also holds my love of flirty, down-bad MMCs, tough vigilante FMCs, and the kind of found family you can only get in a crew like in Firefly or Atlantis 🥰

If you love the same things, please apply for an ARC or preorder it! We’re close to unlocking the first incentive!
