About this listen
A gilded cage is still a cage. Will love set her free or trap her forever?
Half-human, half-fae, and with rebellion in her blood, Lady Avice chafes against society's strict rules. Climbing trees, cursing, and running through the woods with young men are all strictly forbidden.
Eloping with a man she's fairly sure she loves must be the solution to all her problems. But her white knight quickly loses his luster when they're chased across the country by armed men and forced to flee in a pirate ship.
With the wind in her hair, sea spray on her face, and magic stirring in her veins, the pirate life might be exactly the freedom she'd been longing for. But what's freedom when her husband is still chained to tradition?
If you love adventures with magic, romance, and heroines who discover their power, you'll love this prequel to Beneath Black Sails, a pirate fantasy adventure series featuring a sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance. While this prequel book does not feature a HEA, the series does. As you might expect from pirates, these stories include mild cussing and steamy encounters.

Agenor, Lord Protector of the Fae Isles and right hand of the Mother herself, doesn’t expect anything to still surprise him after twelve centuries of life. Finding a taunting note from an anonymous thief in his wardrobe is enough to rouse his curiosity, though. Enough to do the unthinkable—write back.

But a potential escape lies in the form of her gruff yet achingly handsome guard, whose loyalty she is determined to break. A huntsman with heightened senses, Basten "Wolf" Bowborn has more important things to do than transport his master's new bride. With ancient creatures reawakening along the kingdom's border wall, he is torn between his duty and his desire to investigate.

You'd think that basically being in charge of love would be an epic job, right? Wrong. Sure, I can blow some Lust into people's faces and watch the show, but I can't actually participate. It gets old, trust me. Same goes for love. I can pass it out like sugar-free lollipops at a dentist's office, but I can't get any love for myself. It totally sucks. I used to consider myself a hopeless romantic, so why wouldn't I choose to become a cupid? Sounds like a good idea, right? Wrong again. They don't call us stupid cupids for nothing.

She thought he was dead. Four years after the disappearance of her beloved prince, Lady Allette Rittey returns to the fae realm to find Prince Senan very much alive—and on the verge of marrying a bloody princess. Desperate for answers, Allette poses as a servant to gain access to his castle. But the wedding bells are ringing, and she's running out of time before she loses him forever. Prince Senan Vale has problems. A lot of them. Most pressing, an arranged marriage not to the woman he was meant for, but the princess of a neighboring kingdom.

Story
Valeria is a dreamer. Rífíor is a damaged male. And, through no fault of her own, she finds herself entangled in the throes of his hunger for retribution. But for him, there will be no distraction, even if she becomes a momentary detour, even if he breaks her heart. What he fails to anticipate is Valeria's fiery spirit and the countless ways she will make him pay for stealing her innocence—not to mention the tempest of strength he'll find impossible to bend to his will.

Once, I helped save a kingdom. Now, I’m trapped in a prison of thorns and nightmares. My crime? Knowing the location of a power that could reshape the world—a grimoire I swore to protect with my life. That secret is the only thing keeping me alive while my captors wait for me to break. Until he arrives. Beautiful. Ruthless. Dark, inscrutable eyes. A dangerously wicked grin. But he’s not here to rescue me. He wants the grimoire for himself–and he’ll destroy anyone who stands in his way. My only choice is a fragile, temporary alliance with a man I can never trust.

Their job should be to kill me. Instead, I have become their favorite toy. The bones of every blood witch mark the entrances to the human villages. Blood magic is forbidden. It's evil incarnate. Everybody knows that. So, on my twentieth birthday, when my coven's sacred blood rite ritual reveals me as the first blood witch to appear in the last twenty years, I fully expect my bones to be added to the pile. What I don't expect is to be kidnapped by three egotistical, frustratingly gorgeous, and devious witch-killing warrior immortals with a peculiar and insatiable taste for my blood.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Star Review
🌶️🌶️🌶️ 3/5 Spicy Level
Across Dark Seas is book #0.5 of the Beneath Black Sails series by Clare Sager. It is 205 pages long. This is a prequel and the “origin story” of Vice. It occurs approximately 3 years prior to the beginning of book 1, Beneath Black Sails. If you read the Shadows of the Tenebris Court series first like I did, this is the story of the FMC’s (Katherine Ferrers) sister.
Lady Avice Ferrers, the FMC, is a rather wild, adventurous aristocratic 18 year old young lady. Daughter of a Viscount, she is kept at home for 18 years and has lived a dull life. It is constantly drilled into her to be obedient, dutiful and meek which are the opposite of her personality. She aspires to be an author. She loves reading books of adventure like Robin Hood and Ser Francis Drake. She knows a lady will not have a life of adventure so she decides she will gain adventures through her own writing. Her father is rather brutal with his discipline. Her mother and Nanny Alder are loving and attentive, though it’s obvious her mother is unhappily bound to her husband for life. The story hints of Avice having unnoticed fae traits at the beginning.
Ser Evered Lyons, the MMC, is a Baronet, son of Baron Lyons. He seems smitten by Avice and seems to love and accept her like she is, wild and adventurous.
When Avice is sent away from home for a visit with the Queen, she meets the eyes of Evered and it feels like love at first sight. After a few interactions, he proposes marriage and she accepts. She worries her father will need convincing due to Evered being of lower rank. After returning home she plans to ask for his blessing. However, she soon learns she has been promised to another, Lieutenant Knighton Villers, a bully from her childhood. From here, the story is about Avice’s fight for freedom and independence from social constraints and fighting for her love with Evered. There is elopement, fleeing, a pirate ship and magic. Things and people are not what they seem. She works hard to become the woman she wants to be when the world wants her to be less.
Characters who are also in Shadows of the Tenebris court include Perry, Lydia, Wolstan, Uncle Rufus, Katherine Ferrers, Sabrecats, and I’m sure there are more.
I enjoy the world building, story lines and overall writing by Clare Sager. I am working my way through all of her Sabreverse books via chronological order. Since I started with SotTC a few months ago, I wanted to read the rest in chronological order from here and will re read those when I come to them at the end.
The audiobook is narrated wonderfully by Amelia Hugh. I love audiobooks and reading along in the ebook.
Happy Reading! 📚
❤️🔥Wonderful beginning to the Sabreverse! I enjoyed the narrator!🥰
