The Vowbound Chronicles

The sea whispers her name. The prince it delivers is bleeding prophecy.

Lira has always heard the tide like a second heartbeat—until a storm leaves a stranger on the rocks: Kaelen, a drowned prince with salt in his blood and a kingdom that wants him erased. When masked hunters called the Tidemarked close in, Lira makes a choice no one in Nereth would survive: she hides him… and listens.

Kaelen carries a curse woven into memory, and Lira’s own past is a blank space where a mother should be. The closer they get, the louder the ocean becomes—demanding blood, bargains, and a bond neither of them can deny. Together, they cut a pact in the shallows, and the sea accepts—marking them as its own and painting a target on their backs.

Now Lira and Kaelen must outrun a ruthless queen, unravel a secret buried in the deep, and decide what their bond is meant to become: salvation for a dying tide… or the spark that drowns the world.

Echoes of Salt is a dark, lyrical romantasy of ocean-borne magic, mythic prophecy, and a love that tastes like brine and storm.
