Alaura Hayes has spent her whole life believing she was no one’s.
Foster care taught her that early. By the time she graduates from law school—alone, buried in debt, and with no job waiting—she’s learned how to survive without expecting anything more.
But a graduation trip changes everything.
In Vegas, then along the Malibu coast, something begins to shift.
The ocean doesn’t just call to her—it responds.
Strangers can’t seem to stay away.
And when a man nearly drowns after getting too close, Alaura realizes whatever is happening to her isn’t normal.
It’s dangerous.
Back in Alabama, with nowhere else to go, she moves in with her wealthy friend Nora—just as an unexpected opportunity pulls their entire group to Martha’s Vineyard for the summer. It should be a reset before real life begins.
Instead, it becomes a trap.
Because Alaura Hayes wasn’t abandoned.
She was presumed dead.
Hidden as a child after a secret council decided her existence was too dangerous to survive, Alaura is the daughter of a powerful witch and a sea-born queen—a lineage that was never meant to exist.
Now the truth is surfacing.
And so is her power.
And she isn’t the only one watching it awaken.
A man sent to track her—cold, controlled, and bound to the very world that tried to erase her—was never meant to hesitate. But the closer he gets, the more the line between hunter and protector begins to blur.
Because Alaura isn’t just dangerous.
She’s impossible to resist.
As the line between the human world and something far older begins to break, Alaura must decide who she is before others decide for her—because the same forces that tried to erase her once are watching again.
And this time, they won’t miss.
LUNATIDE is a contemporary mythic fantasy about power, inheritance, and the dangerous pull between enemies who were never meant to fall.
Book One of the Tideborn Saga
