When the ocean takes everything from her, it gives her something else back-its most dangerous secret.
Alora Kyle has spent her life trapped in a marriage she never chose, mothering children she barely had time to love before survival swallowed her whole. When a violent storm capsizes her family's boat, she wakes alone on the shore of Catalina Isle-an isolated, myth-haunted place whispered to belong to the sea.
Her husband and children are dead. Her past is gone. Her grief is a hollow ache that threatens to swallow her whole.
Then she meets Nara Lowe.
Mysterious. Beautiful. Ancient.
A lighthouse keeper with secrets carved into her skin and saltwater in her veins.
As Alora recovers in Nara's secluded cottage, the quiet island reveals its strangeness: scales in the bathtub, glowing creatures in the tide pools, claw marks on wrecked boats. And when Alora discovers the truth-Nara is not human at all-her world cracks open.
Together, they unravel the myths of Catalina Isle, where forgotten goddesses, drowned women, and sea-born creatures watch from the deep. As Alora learns to navigate the tides and her own shattered heart, she must confront a terrifying question:
Was her family's death an accident... or did something beneath the waves pull them under?
And even more dangerous-
Why did the ocean choose to spare her?
A haunting, lyrical tale of grief, rebirth, and forbidden connection, Sorrow Beneath the Tide is a dark sapphic fantasy where the sea gives life, takes it, and demands everything in return.
