A TIKTOK sensation!
An unforgettable dark romantic fantasy novel about the siren with a taste for royal blood and the prince who has sworn to destroy her.
"Stellar world building and nonstop action will keep readers hooked on this twisted reimagining of 'The Little Mermaid'." - Booklist Online
Princess Lira is siren royalty and the most lethal of them all. With the hearts of seventeen princes in her collection, she is revered across the sea. Until a twist of fate forces her to kill one of her own. To punish her daughter, the Sea Queen transforms Lira into the one thing they loathe most - a human. Robbed of her song, Lira has until the winter solstice to deliver Prince Elian's heart to the Sea Queen or remain a human forever.
The ocean is the only place Prince Elian calls home, even though he is heir to the most powerful kingdom in the world. His calling? Ridding the world of the menace of the sirens. But when he rescues a drowning woman, it becomes clear that there's more to her than there first appeared.
She promises to help him find the key to destroying the sirens for good. But can he trust her?

The little mermaid, but make it darker!
This book was a pleasant surprise for me. I rarely read fairy tale adaptations, but I thought this one was really well done! First of all, I loved the author's writing and her attention to detail. I was immediately drawn into the story and the plot was incredibly captivating. The characters were wonderfully developed, and I simply couldn't put the book down! "To Kill a Kingdom" is definitely a dark retelling of The Little Mermaid, but it also gave me Pirates of the Caribbean vibes. The story was grim, wild, and full of twists and turns. I thought the siren theme was very intriguing, as I've rarely encountered it in books before. I loved it, though, and I've decided to read more books like this! Overall, I really enjoyed Lira and Elian's story, so much so that I read the book in one sitting. -

pirates, sirens and love!
What would happen if both main characters want to kill each other? That is the premise of "To Kill a Kingdom" and the author really makes it work. From the start you are drawn into this interesting world full of pirates, magic and loveable characters. Lira and Elian, though they want to kill each other in the beginning, have such great chemistry and the banter between these two is just awesome. Once started I could not stop reading this book and felt that it was almost too short for my liking - I just wanted to spend more time with Lira, Elian and the whole crew surrounding them. The romance is nuanced and quite a slow-burn, but it really works and really pays off at the end. Overall "To Kill a Kingdom" is a great fantasy, especially for those who don't read a lot of other fantasy books.
