About this ebook
Her magic is death. Her loyalty is a lie. And the truth may destroy her.
Alaysha has been her father’s weapon for as long as she can remember—a water witch who can drain the life from any living thing with a single thought. She kills for the Emir’s empire, leaving behind withered corpses and ash-dry earth, convincing herself it’s duty, not murder. But when one of her victims bears the same forbidden tattoos that mark her own skin, something inside her cracks.
Haunted by memories she doesn’t understand, Alaysha begins to question everything she’s been told—about her magic, her lineage, and the man who commands her obedience. Then she meets him: a stranger with eyes like wildfire and a voice that calls to the part of her she’s been taught to fear. He knows the truth her father has buried. He knows what she is.
As desire ignites between them, Alaysha is torn between the empire that owns her and the freedom this man promises—a freedom that could unravel the very world she’s sworn to protect. But defying her father means facing the full power of her own darkness… and the price of it could be everyone she loves.
For fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and dark romantasy with elemental magic, Water Witch is a spellbinding first installment in a sweeping fantasy saga where love is rebellion, and magic comes with a cost.
The tides are turning—and Alaysha must choose what kind of monster she’ll become.
Perfect for fans of Auburn Tempest, Stacia Stark, or Carissa Broadbent because Alaysha was forged to obey, a weaponized woman bound to her father’s will—until the one man she should hate becomes the only one who sees her worth. In a world where power is punishment and love is rebellion, Water Witch is a tale of redemption through love that will leave you breathless and begging for more.
