Legends of Vioria
|
Windfall is the perfect book for fans of Robin Hood, Zorro, or Jack Sparrow who've been craving an adult female led fantasy.
"Shawna Barnett's rich and heartfelt debut blends unlikely genres effortlessly. Windfall's diverse cast and swift pacing offers something for everyone" -Eli Brown, author of Cinnamon and Gunpowder
"Overall, this book has everything: romance, adventure, intrigue, magic, love triangles, secrets, princesses, and of course, pirates!" -Cate Pearce, author of Traitors of the Black Crown
"The beautiful world that Shawna built held me captive between pages as I lost myself in this story.
Immediately, I fell in love with Liana and Ameen. Pirate stories have my heart and Shawna did this one justice. I can't wait for the sequel!" -Melissa Karibian, author of A Song of Silver and Gold
Captain Liana Foley knows a thing or two about fights. She fights the King's Navy. She fights to balance power in oppressive Vioria. She fights for respect as a female, bisexual, pirate captain. But she's losing her biggest fight: to escape her secret past as a lost Princess.
With a mysterious letter and a stranger threatening to expose her, Liana is blackmailed into attending a royal ball and protecting her counterpart, sheltered Princess Rhian. The pretenses are suspicious enough, but Liana takes the risk in hopes to finally unveil the magic plot that killed her parents and forced her into hiding.
When Liana encounters Rhian's own lightning-wielding powers, the ball erupts in violence. The sheltered princess falls into the care of Liana—and her band of pirates. On the run, the only safe haven for the Windfall crew to hide is the most-dangerous place of all: under the thumb of Liana's narcissistic, abusive brother-in-law. In order to protect her crew, her family, and naïve Rhian, Liana must demand sacrifices from herself and the people she loves.
Her choices will make powerful enemies; good thing Liana Foley knows a thing or two about fighting those.

Review
"This book just destroyed me...I couldn't put it down when I started it. This story was so well written, the tension kept building up. She got me seated at the edge of the chair." -Hanne
"Pirates? Check. Princesses? Check. Magical powers? Check. Slow-burn sapphic romance? CHECK. This book was a surprise in the absolute best way. Shawna Barnett has created such a vivid world full of lovable characters. She keeps your attention from the first page right to the last, and it was such a joy each time I sat down to read some." -Lizzie
