Jetsam

The whole coast salts its sills against the Boo Hag. Savannah Cane cut a door in hers.

Loving the island's most feared legend has a price, and Cane's Folly means to charge it. The founding families have kept balanced books for two hundred years-empty coffins buried with full honors, a ledger with six pages razored out-and the dredge just pulled up the one witness they never managed to burn: a buried ship with a name still on her stern board, and only one diver the water will allow down to read it.

They tried drowning Savannah quiet. The water sent her back up. Now the old houses are setting a genteel table with her name on the bill of sale-and nobody on that island has ever once asked the sea what it actually wants.

Mercer knows. A hundred years to the season, skin to skin, she's going to tell her-and then Savannah Cane is going to sit down at a table at the bottom of the channel and negotiate for everything she loves.

The sea keeps what it's owed-unless someone claims it first.

JETSAM is Book Two of THE SALVAGE CLAIMS - a why-choose monster romance quartet: one salvage diver, four monsters (one of them a woman), high heat, no choosing required. Reads best after FLOTSAM. Content notes: drugging, peril, drowning deaths, grief; HEA guaranteed by series' end.
