House of Shifting Tides

Explore the captivating first standalone spin-off from the hit series and Booktok phenomenon, *The Kingdom of Crows*. Cathal's narrative, which unfolds right after the occurrences in *House of Striking Oaths*, is best appreciated when read in sequence.In a time gone by, a princess found herself falling in love with a creature. Reborn with no recollection of a past life and devoid of powers—apart from the ability to morph into an unwanted anomaly—I find myself surrounded by few allies. Among them are the Shabbin Queen, Fallon, her mate Lorcan, and Cathal Báeinach, Fallon's father, who has taken it upon himself to protect me.Despite my struggles, I remain puzzled by why the Crow King's brutish general is intent on protecting me, a woman he can hardly tolerate. I might be uneducated and lacking in physical allure, but do I truly merit such disdain? More pressing is the question of why he stays if I repel him so.When I suggest he leave, he insists on reminding me of his deadly prowess. Indeed, he might be one of the realm's most dangerous men, but he is equally one of the most exasperating, igniting both my frustration and desire in equal measure.Why do I feel this pull towards the man who seems to detest me? And why, even as I establish a magical connection with another, does my longing for the Crow who finally departed persist?*House of Shifting Tides* is an enchanting story of fate, chosen family, and second chances at love, illustrating that sometimes, love transcends blood, and destined love can consume everything in its path.
