GUARDIAN OF THE DEPTHS
Destiny rises with the tide — but some currents cannot be controlled.
When twenty-two-year-old marine biologist Kaia Jones moves to her grandparents’ secluded Scottish cove, she expects peace, quiet, and time to focus on her research. Instead, she finds a pirate captain at her window, a glowing amulet pulsing with mysterious power, and a family legacy she never knew existed.
Kaia quickly learns the truth: she is the Guardian of the Depths, heir to a magical lineage tied to pirates, sea monsters, and ancient curses. Thrust into a world of high-stakes battles, dark secrets, and treacherous alliances, she must master her new powers—or risk losing everything she loves.
As danger and destiny collide, Kaia must choose between the life she thought she wanted and the extraordinary one she was born to live.
