Description

Paperback

Imogen Nel is in hiding. Hiding from a cruel kingdom that believes Sirens are monstrous, blood-hungry creatures. Hiding from a king and his captain who viciously hunt her kind. Hiding from her own alluring abilities. By keeping herself from the sea, Imogen's bloodlust is dulled, and her black wings remain concealed beneath her skin.

 

When a neighboring king comes to visit, Imogen can no longer hide. He knows precisely what she is, and he believes she can save their kingdoms from an even greater monster. But Imogen's power threatens to violently reveal itself, and the two form a blood bond that protects them both. They flee together, traversing waters teeming with the undead. As the lines between duty to their people and desire for each other begin to blur, Imogen worries her ancestral powers may not be enough to kill what hunts her--the only way to defeat a monster may be to become one herself.

Review Quotes:
"An absolute riptide of a book. It draws you in, pulls you under. Atmospheric and evocative, Cassidy's writing sews adventure, romance, and political intrigue together while maintaining its ominous tenor. Monsters lurk, and danger knows your name. I was completely swept away."-- Rachel Gillig, New York Times bestselling author of One Dark Window

Review Quotes:

Review Quotes:
"Cassidy has written your new favorite romantasy couple: a king tormented by his honor and a siren grappling with her monstrosity, each of them walking the knife's edge of duty and desire. Sensual, gripping, and resonant as siren song, In the Veins of the Drowning will sink its lure into you and leave you breathless."-- Allison Saft, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of A Dark and Drowning Tide

Review Quotes:
"As glittering as the sea and lush as its foamy waves, In the Veins of the Drowning will lure you in like a siren's call with its mysterious lore and fierce, yet tender romance. Imogen and Theo are perfect reflections of each other and I have no doubt they will ensnare the hearts of readers the way they've ensnared mine. Devastatingly atmospheric and utterly captivating."-- Maddie Martinez, author of The Maiden and Her Monster

Review Quotes:
"Rich with atmosphere and lore, this lush fantasy is like the sea that roars at its heart: fierce and dangerous, darkly glittering. The ferocious tide of Imogen and Theo's irresistible romance will sweep you off your feet, but it is Imogen herself--grappling with her power and what it means to be a monster--who will steal your heart. A gorgeous, spellbinding debut."-- Claire Legrand, New York Times bestselling author of Furyborn
