Silent Tide

A Dark BWWM Monster Paranormal Romance

Her song is a weapon that breaks the will of men. But her new keeper can’t hear a sound.

Nia is an apex predator of the abyss, a Mami Wata whose obsidian scales and bioluminescent glow command the darkness of the deep Pacific. But her pod is dying, their psychic connection fraying. To save them, she must assume a painful human form and venture onto land to retrieve the Soul Mirror—a stolen artifact locked away in a fortress-like manor.

Her plan is simple: enthrall a human with her psychic Song, use him as a tool, and take what is hers.

Cian creates his own world in the silence. As the deaf keeper of the Sentinel lighthouse, he lives a life of solitude, attuned to the vibrations of the storm and the rhythm of the tides. When a mysterious woman washes ashore during a gale—starving, lethal, and radiating a cold that chills the air—he doesn't see a monster. He sees a survivor.

Nia’s deadliest weapon is useless against him. Immune to her Song and unafraid of her claws, Cian offers her shelter instead of submission. Trapped together by a raging storm, a fragile truce forms. But as Nia’s hunger for raw flesh and salt water grows, so does a psychic bond that transcends sound—a connection that exposes the lonely man to the terrifying, possessive love of a creature from the deep.

With a ruthless collector hunting them and her own ancestors demanding blood, Nia must choose: complete her mission and destroy the only man who has ever seen her true self, or unleash the monster within to protect him.
