A gripping, dark enemies to lovers LGBTQ+ YA fantasy about two girls who must choose between saving themselves, each other, or their sinking island home.

Every year on St. Walpurga's Eve, Caldella's Witch Queen lures a boy back to her palace. An innocent life to be sacrificed on the full moon to keep the island city from sinking.

Lina Kirk is convinced her brother is going to be taken this year. To save him, she enlists the help of Thomas Lin, the boy she secretly loves, and the only person to ever escape from the palace. But they draw the queen's attention, and Thomas is chosen as the sacrifice.

Queen Eva watched her sister die to save the boy she loved. Now as queen, she won't make the same mistake. She's willing to sacrifice anyone if it means saving herself and her city.

When Lina offers herself to the queen in exchange for Thomas's freedom, the two girls await the full moon together. But Lina is not at all what Eva expected, and the queen is nothing like Lina envisioned. Against their will, they find themselves falling for each other as water floods Caldella's streets and the dark tide demands its sacrifice.

Perfect for fans of:
  • The Wicked Deep and A Curse So Dark and Lonely
  • Witchy tales
  • Dark fantasy fiction
  • LGBTQ books
  • Enemies to lovers romance

Praise for The Dark Tide:
"Striking the perfect balance, The Dark Tide demands to be read in one held breath as its tide bears down on all."??Foreword, Starred Review
"A dark scenic adventure, sensitively written for romantics, Jasinska's debut novel is a fantasy of promises, betrayal, unrequited love, and black magic."??School Library Journal, Starred Review
"The Dark Tide is the dark, queer fantasy of your dreams that's part beauty and the beast, part something entirely new and original... a lush world that begs to be lived in... It's beautiful, and fast paced, and everything I ever want from a fairy tale."??Cat VanOrder, Bookmarks (Winston-Salem, NC)
"Fans of the enemies-to-lovers trope will be ecstatic with this book...The Dark Tide offers an exciting and immersive story with a strong feminist slant that subverts common YA tropes and forges its own original path."??The Ner

En la isla de Caldella, la cual está llena de magia, se debe realizar cada año un sacrificio para que evitar que la marea oscura engulla por completo la isla. Cada año, la Reina Bruja, elige a un joven de la isla; solo que este año será diferente, pues Lina decide ir en lugar de Thomas, el chico que ama. Eva, la Reina Bruja, acepta a Lina como sacrificio y tras esto, tendrán justo una semana para detener la maldición juntas. Una historia de fantasía y romance, con mucha acción y momentos de tensión que te harán no soltar el libro hasta terminarlo. Cuenta con dos puntos de vista (Eva y Lina) que se irán alternando durante el desarrollo de historia. Además, tengo que mencionar como me encanta la dinámica entre Eva y Lina, como poco a poco se van conociendo más, eliminando las primeras impresiones que tenían la una de la otra al principio.
Este libro es muy buena opción para una lectura rápida pero que emocione. ( )

I enjoyed the magic system. I enjoyed the world building. I enjoyed the queer romance. But it felt like it didn’t focus enough on characterization? The world building was so in depth and really created a solid universe for me, but eh. I wasn’t really blown away by any of the characters other than Lina. ( )

I would say this was a decent debut although I did notice that there were a lot of things that weren't explained or just wasn't clear to the readers. I found the pacing a little bumpy too but it was still fairly enjoyable nonetheless! ( )
