Coming Soon
A NEW SWASHBUCKLING FANTASY ROMANCE
THE FORGOTTEN NAMES TRILOGY
She remembers loving him across centuries.
He intends to make his own mistakes.
The sea is alive with lost years.
Forgotten harbors surface beneath the moon. Warships sail out of futures that have not happened. Entire islands vanish when the world stops remembering their names.
And somewhere among those broken years, the same soul keeps returning.
Each time, he wears a different face.
Each time, he forgets her.
Évra Morcant remembers enough for both of them—but she has learned that memory does not give her the right to claim the man he has become. This time, he is Rook Marrow: pirate, thief, devoted brother, professional liar, and owner of a smile that has survived more hangings than it deserves.
Rook does not believe in destiny.
Unfortunately, destiny has just caught him robbing the Crown.
BOOK ONE — COMING SOON
THE THIEF TIME FORGOT
One last theft. One impossible chart. Several centuries of trouble.
Rook Marrow only needs one final score.
The treasure convoy marked on a stolen Crown chart could buy freedom for his sister, his crew, and every battered plank of the Wayward Saint. All he has to do is slip into the most secure archive in Veyrport, open a lock no living thief understands, and leave before the fireworks end.
Then the chart tastes his blood.
Silver coastlines appear across blank vellum. Routes shift between years instead of miles. Alarm bells ring before anyone discovers the theft—as if the archive has recognized Rook rather than caught him.
His escape leads him into a corridor that should not exist, where a dangerous stranger seems to know far more about the chart than she admits.
Évra is controlled, secretive, and entirely too good at predicting Rook’s next move. She refuses to explain why his presence affects the broken years around them. She also refuses to treat him like a relic of the past, even when the evidence begins to suggest that Rook has lived—and died—beside her many times before.
Rook’s first instinct is to distrust her.
His second is considerably less sensible.
With the Crown closing in, the Wayward Saint must flee through a living sea where drowned towns share streets with their surviving futures, reefs exist only when no one remembers them, and enemy fleets can arrive years before the walls meant to stop them are built.
The Crown wants to turn the chart into a weapon.
Évra wants to keep Rook alive without stealing his freedom.
Rook wants the truth, the treasure, and a choice that belongs to this life.
Accompanying him is Scupper, a tide otter with quick paws, flexible morals, and a firm conviction that every key in the world has been tragically misplaced.
The first theft was supposed to set them free.
Instead, it may unlock a curse the world worked very hard to forget.
A PIRATE ADVENTURE ACROSS THE BROKEN YEARS
Board the Wayward Saint for:
Daring thefts, naval battles, false colors, and escapes that rely heavily on audacity
A charming pirate who jokes when the situation becomes dangerous—and stops when it becomes real
A centuries-old timewalker who will not use destiny as permission
A dark romance built on present desire rather than inherited obligation
Forgotten civilizations, drowned harbors, and ships sailing through overlapping years
A ruthless Crown admiral determined to invade the past
A fiercely loyal found family with excellent knives and very little patience
One unapologetic tide otter committing crimes for reasons of maritime necessity
THREE BOOKS. TWO LOST NAMES. ONE LOVE THAT MUST BE CHOSEN AGAIN.
Book One: The Thief Time Forgot
A stolen chart awakens to Rook’s blood, drawing the Wayward Saint into a sea of overlapping years. Before Rook can uncover the identity of the man Évra once knew, he must decide whether he wants her as the man he is now.
Book Two: The Name He Lost
The search for Rook’s true name leads beyond the edges of recorded history, pursued by a Crown that has learned how to wage war against the past. Recovering what was taken may restore more than memory—and destroy the life Rook chose for himself.
Book Three: The Name Remembers
The final lost name lies inside the world’s stolen memories. To break the cycle that has separated them across centuries, Rook and Évra must enter a place where names, lives, and entire civilizations have been imprisoned—and decide what they are willing to forget forever.
THE SEA REMEMBERS WHAT THE WORLD FORGOT.
The Thief Time Forgot, Book One of the Forgotten Names Trilogy, is coming soon.
Join the crew for the cover reveal, release date, exclusive excerpts, and your first chance to board the Wayward Saint.
