Bloody Black: A Pirate Standalone Romantasy
Anne was a reckless, arrogant royal who had never tasted defeat. After a brutal betrayal on her wedding night, Anne vanishes from the kingdom she was meant to rule. Years later, she's returns from the grave-no longer a princess but a terror of the seas.
Known only as Blackbeard, she's hunting down the men who destroyed her, one by one.
But vengeance doesn't come without a cost. Brutal bargains collar her, and bind her to a dark promise. She captures Lieutenant Robb Maynard-a too-handsome, too-calm officer loyal to her enemy-Anne intends to trade him for leverage. Instead, she finds herself locked in a dangerous game of secrets and seduction, where the greatest threat isn't a blade-but the way he looks at her.
Like she's still a woman worth loving. And although she knows better than to believe in anything but pain, Anne must decide if love is worth the risk.

There’s no better way to start off spooky season than with a spicy Blackbeard retelling. I’m so glad I moved this up my TBR bc this book had me HOOKED from the very beginning. First and foremost, check the triggers bc this one touches some dark topics. It’s not romantasized, nor is it easy to read. You can skip that whole chapter if you need to (chapter 6). The FMC goes through love and loss, betrayal and revenge. Speaking of revenge… her revenge tour had me kicking my feet. The boiling oil?! Incredible. At no point did I feel like I knew where the story was going. It was completely unpredicable (for me, at least). The world building is phenomenal, not to mention how much research went into it to make the story as accurate as it is. Truly one of the best standalones I’ve read and I’m honored to have been able to read an ARC (sorry my review is after pub day, even though it was released 2 weeks early hahaha). Thank you so much to the author for the chance to read Bloody Black!!
