About this book

Kianthe and Reyna’s quest to secure dragon eggs leads them into the treacherous waters of the Nacean River, where a simple errand turns into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse. To earn the favor of the powerful Lord Arlon, the couple must hunt down Serina, a notorious river pirate disrupting the local supply chains. They form an uneasy alliance with Bobbie, a determined constable whose professional commitment to capturing Serina masks a deeply tangled, unresolved past.

As the pursuit unfolds, the lines between duty and desire blur. While Kianthe and Reyna navigate the volatile tension between the constable and the pirate, they realize that Bobbie and Serina’s history is far more complicated than a standard criminal investigation. Faced with a brewing "relation-shipwreck," the couple must decide whether to prioritize their urgent mission or intervene in the chaotic, simmering romance unfolding before them.

Infused with humor and heart, this cozy fantasy explores the thin line between enemies and lovers on the high seas, proving that even the most disaster-prone hearts might find their way to a hard-won peace.

Cozy vibes in a world that is better than our own.

"I love that with each book we get new characters to get to know and love. The author puts us in a world where it feels like the script has been flipped and heterosexual or cisgender are the anomalies, rather than the norm. It took me a moment to adjust to that shift in perspective, and it was so lovely once I settled into it. The cozy fantasy vibe is only enhanced by the notion that if we're going to escape into a fantasy realm, we can escape to one that is a better world than the one we inhabit. Escaping to a world where everyone is free to be exactly who they are is freeing in a way that I didn't know my soul needed. The story in this second book is lovely and engaging. The action and tension is well placed and balanced. It maintains its cozy feel even with the danger and excitement. The characters are honest, human, and relatable. I continue to be impressed by the authors ability to pack so much into the pages without wasting space with extra fluff that ends up being skimmed over. Every paragraph is packed with story. I was able to take my time and just enjoy the story without feeling like I needed to skim to get back to the plot. Truly one of my new favorite series. ["

A Great Story

"A Pirate’s Life for Tea is a delightful blend of cozy fantasy, adventure, and just the right amount of whimsy. Imagine a charming seaside town, a grumpy pirate, and a tea witch who would rather steep leaves than stir up trouble—and you’ve got the perfect recipe for a fun and heartwarming read. The world-building is cozy yet immersive, with just enough pirate mischief and magical charm to keep things engaging. The main characters are wonderfully endearing—especially the dynamic between the no-nonsense tea witch and the reluctant pirate. Their banter and slow-building camaraderie had me smiling more than once. The story moves at a steady pace, balancing moments of lighthearted fun with just enough intrigue to keep the pages turning. If you love magical tea shops, found family vibes, and a touch of swashbuckling fun, this book is definitely worth the read! Perfect for fans of cozy fantasy looking for something light and feel-good. ["
