Publisher's summary
In a world divided by colonialism and threaded with magic, a desperate orphan turned pirate and a rebellious imperial lady find a connection on the high seas.
Aboard the pirate ship Dove, Flora the girl takes on the identity of Florian the man to earn the respect and protection of the crew. For Flora, former starving urchin, the brutal life of a pirate is about survival: don't trust, don't stick out, and don't feel. But on this voyage, Flora is drawn to the Lady Evelyn Hasegawa, who is headed to an arranged marriage she dreads. Flora doesn't expect to be taken under Evelyn's wing, and Evelyn doesn't expect to find such a deep bond with the pirate Florian. Neither expects to fall in love.
Soon the unlikely pair set in motion a wild escape that will free a captured mermaid (coveted for her blood) and involve the mysterious Pirate Supreme, an opportunistic witch, double agents, and the all-encompassing Sea herself.
Deftly entwining swashbuckling action and quiet magic, Maggie Tokuda-Hall's inventive debut novel conjures a diverse cast of characters seeking mastery over their fates while searching for answers to big questions about identity, power, and love.

When Deputy US Marshal Danielle "Danny" Martin was told she'd gotten a promotion, she expected to be leading her own fugitive retrieval team. Instead, she got transferred to Pontian, Florida, of all places, and assigned to a Superhero support detail for Focus, a seemingly immortal superhero who is also one of the most famous lesbian icons on the planet. Bad enough she's got to spend every day working with a woman she's had a crush on since she was five years old, but when she arrives at her new post, things start getting weird.

Imagine an America very similar to our own. It's got homework, best friends, and pistachio ice cream. There are some differences. This America has been shaped dramatically by the magic, monsters, knowledge, and legends of its peoples, those Indigenous and those not. Elatsoe lives in this slightly stranger America. She can raise the ghosts of dead animals, a skill passed down through generations of her Lipan Apache family. Her beloved cousin has just been murdered in a town that wants no prying eyes. But she is going to do more than pry.

Critic reviews
"Tokuda-Hall infuses this adventure with fantastical word play and [Kate] Rudd is the perfect match as the storyteller. The story is almost melodic in nature and that rings true with Rudd’s sing-song tone, varied character voicing, and matched pacing." —Booklist
"Narrator Kate Rudd creates unique voices for mysterious mermaids, powerful witches, and evil pirates in this fantasy adventure.… Rudd imbues her narration with a creepy menace when voicing the villains and brings the courage--and doubts--of both heroines to life. Her lilting voice is rich with the magic of stories and the rhythm of the sea. This audiobook will please listeners looking for a queer love story that celebrates female power and the diversity of gender expression." —AudioFile Magazine

I was the chosen tool, her sharpened blade that would cut the deepest into the heart of the kingdom of Baist. But like all deadly weapons, my wedding is two-edged sword that could cost me my soul. For I am Rosalie, one of the adopted daughters of Lady Eville, and it is my duty to enter into a loveless and hate-filled marriage with the narcissistic Crown Prince of Baist.

Story
Everyone dreams of marrying a prince - except for me. I am nothing more than a pawn in my adoptive mother's diabolical plot against the seven kingdoms. I was the chosen tool, her sharpened blade that would cut the deepest into the heart of the kingdom of Baist. But like all deadly weapons, my wedding is two-edged sword that could cost me my soul. For I am Rosalie, one of the adopted daughters of Lady Eville, and it is my duty to enter into a loveless and hate-filled marriage with the narcissistic Crown Prince of Baist.

Tamsin is the most powerful witch of her generation. But after committing the worst magical sin, she’s exiled by the ruling Coven and cursed with the inability to love. The only way she can get those feelings back - even for just a little while - is to steal love from others. Wren is a source - a rare kind of person who is made of magic, despite being unable to use it herself. Sources are required to train with the Coven as soon as they discover their abilities, but Wren - the only caretaker to her ailing father - has spent her life hiding her secret.

pirate love story
a delightfully bloody and beautiful love story of the sea. Flora/Florian are a rivetting protagonist whose internal journey is as powerful as the sea.

So much potential
I wish I could give this book 5 stars. The characters and story deserve that and more. I fell quickly in love with the world and ideas being explored here and happily lost myself in the experience, without even a pause. Sadly I felt the final few chapters felt rushed and overstuffed. When I realized I was on the final hour I had no idea how the author might tie up all the plot threads. the answer was all at once in a rapid fire way. I don't want to spoil what exactly happens since I still feel like this book is more than worth picking up. But I really think the author needed to either cut some elements down or possibly just write a longer conclusion to give things breathing room.
The narrator did an excellent job. particularly on the main two characters, I felt that each was distinct and recognizable without being overplayed or distracting.

book of the year, no competition!
I was a bit skeptical starting this one, it was a little outside my normal genre but I kept hearing good things and since it was on the list of recommended books during the trans-read-athon, I gave in and started. when I say this book is so good, I mean that my vocabulary is limited and words cannot express how much I enjoyed this story. The interludes added to the overall enchanting experience. the love story was consuming. the elements of magic and the sea was delicious. It all came together beautifully. I normally go for get spicy, smutty stuff, but none of that was needed with a story as deep and beautiful as this one. And for the cherry on top, the narrator did such a spectacular job with the feel and voices of the story. I really hope you all win awards for this masterpiece.

The Beauty and Hope Needed in 2020
As a queer genderqueer person who loves swashbuckling adventures and is could always use more hope and alternate visions for the world I cannot recommend this book enough.

I love everything about this book. ❤
I listened to the audio book while working in the studio.
This book was more than I expected and delivered everything I hope for within a fantasy story full of witches, mermaids, women-loving women, and non-binary folk.
More than that, it is written so beautifully with such poetic prose.
Upon finishing, I promptly ordered a hardcopy of the book to add to my collection and revisit as I see fit.

A good book overall!
Although the book is a little too gritty and dark at some points, the book is very satisfying to get though. The ending shook me... but all is well!
