Happily Ever After Dark

A runaway priestess. A pirate with a deadly curse upon her heart. Will they be able to save each other before the hourglass runs out in this steamy, sapphic Snow White retelling? Gwen I've spent my whole life preparing for one moment, but on the night I'm supposed to commit myself to the Moon Coven, a murder attempt has me fleeing the safety of the only home I've ever known. I run straight past the safe cottage in the woods and right into the arms of a most unlikely hero-a ruthless pirate captain. As I board The Ruined Soul, I can't be sure if I'm a passenger or a captive, but as the tides grow more dangerous, I begin to suspect there's more to the cold-hearted captain than meets the eye. And my magic just might be the thing to help her thaw out. Morgen The wall of ice I keep between myself and everyone else is meant to protect my cursed heart. But my walls start to crumble when a runaway priestess stumbles onto my boat and into my life. With my crew of misfit pirates, we'll make it across a sea full of monsters and get her to safety, so we can claim our sweet reward. Contains mature themes.

Rosemary: Three years ago I was freed from the jailer's cart and sentenced to a lifetime of servitude at the Briar Apothecary, located at the edge of a forest filled with devouring trees. I spend my days blending herbal remedies for my mistress and concocting poisonous treats to weed out her enemies. I've learned firsthand that the prince isn't the hero the rebellion wants him to be. His careless bet invites danger to my doorstep, but it turns out a bit of danger is exactly what I need. Now I'm falling for a woman willing to be ruthless for me. The only problem is I'll have to betray her to free my godmothers from the Ivy Keep. Can I break my own heart to save my family? Carabosse: The little witch must have cast a spell on me. The job was supposed to be easy. Get the dragon eggs and be discreet. Take care of any loose ends and leave a message for the brat prince who dared to steal from the Dragon Valley. But I never expected to feel this warmth in my chest until I laid eyes on her. I've served my queen for twenty years, helping her rise to power in this realm after escaping Faerie. I'm blood-sworn to put her above all else, but now I'm questioning everything. And I'll do anything to get sweet Rosemary to safety, even if there's no chance of a happy ending for me. Can I break an oath to uphold a vow? Contains mature themes.
