Upon a Starlit Tide

In 1758 Saint-Malo, Lucinde Léon is the shipowner's daughter who longs for the sea she's forbidden to sail, sneaking lessons from her smuggler best friend Samuel. When she rescues a drowning stranger one stormy dawn, Luce is pulled into a hidden world of faerie bargains, glittering balls, and old magic.

It's a fairytale mashup of Cinderella and The Little Mermaid where every wish comes with a price, and Luce's own buried secrets put everyone she loves in danger. An atmospheric, immersive historical fantasy about greed, self-discovery, and the cost of getting exactly what you wished for.
