Description

A Paste Magazine Most Anticipated Summer Romantasy
A Los Angeles Times Best Summer Romance Read

“A chaotic Pirates of the Caribbean-style story with a dash of romance and female rage is exactly what I need this summer.”—Paste Magazine

From a world where women are forbidden to use magic and the only freedom is found on the Caribbean high seas comes a swashbuckling romantasy from USA TODAY bestselling author Eva Leigh.


Condemned as a witch, sentenced to die, Alys Tanner uses her innate magical power to flee Puritanical New England. Stealing a ship, Alys becomes captain of The Sea Witch, leading its all-female, sorcery-wielding pirate crew. But the colonial British navy is in hot pursuit. The navy fights for a choke hold on the Caribbean and will destroy anything they cannot control, especially witches.

When Ben Priestley, a headstrong naval navigator, is inadvertently captured by the lady pirates, dangerous truths are revealed. A quest that could turn the tides against the navy’s might ignites a reluctant partnership between the by-the-books prisoner and the fierce witch pirate captain. While they brave backstabbing pirates, perilous tropical islands and monster-filled seas, Alys and Ben’s mistrust grows into unexpected desire as they battle an enemy that will stop at nothing to rule the waves.

What you can expect in THE SEA WITCH:
  • Enemies to Lovers
  • Forced Proximity
  • Pirate Witch Captain
  • Buttoned Up British Navy Hero
  • She Takes Him Captive
  • Magical Sea Monsters
  • Mysterious Uncontrolled Magic

Holy cliffhanger Batman! Wasn't expecting that ending but I had the best time getting there. Some seriously good spice, a literal boatload of feminism and a hero you can't help but love. Highly recommend for anyone who likes witches, pirates, or pirate witches and just wants to have a great time in a new world.

An all-female witchy pirate crew on the Caribbean high seas? Yes, please! This book was an amazingly fun, hot, and suspenseful adventure. This will be a summer blockbuster!

Thanks for the opportunity to read in advance!
