About this book

When a storm drags Amare from her life as a fearless pirate into an underwater kingdom, she discovers she's actually the lost princess of a realm she never knew existed—and the daughter of a king she's been raised to despise. Thrust into a world of magic and court politics (everything she was taught to hate), Amare must navigate her new identity while grappling with the impossible: two brothers who couldn't be more different, each pulling at her heart in unexpected ways. As she begins to understand the strange powers awakening inside her, she realizes that something far darker is stirring in the depths, and she might be the only one who can stop it. It's a swashbuckling adventure packed with romance, danger, and the ultimate question of where you truly belong.

Create a playlist called The Sunaken City. Ethereal yet electric—like drowning in magic and desire. Mix atmospheric indie (Florence + The Machine, Hozier) with lush orchestral moments and sensual pop (SZA, Clairo). Capture the tension of forbidden attraction and the thrill of discovering who you truly are beneath the surface.
