All Avery Roe has ever wanted is to follow in her
grandmother's place and become Prince Island's witch, the
person who makes charms and spells to keep everyone safe.
Avery's mother has other plans for her when she takes her
from her grandmother's and forces her to give up magic.
Avery still uses what little magic she has left, namely
being able to interpret dreams, until one day she sees her
own death. She knows once fate is set, nothing can be
done,
but with the help of harpooner Tane, she may just be able
to
avoid death.
For those looking to have their heart squeezed until it
seems it will burst from either sheer strength, sadness,
beauty, or all three, SALT & STORM is the perfect choice.
As
a lover of any kind of historical fantasy, this book
captured my attention before I first started it and set my
expectations at a high level. I was so joyfully surprised
to
find Kendall Kulper spins a more beautiful tale than I
ever
imagined.
With dark overtones and a level of grief that can turn
souls, Avery's story is unlike anything I've read before.
Avery is a young woman of strength, insecurities, and a
desperate passion for something she doesn't yet quite
understand. Her journey through magic is out of this
world,
but she has a remarkable level of relatability that is
sure
to cause more than one emotional overload. With the
mesmerizing and beautiful Tane as her love interest,
readers
won't find any difficulty getting swept up in a sea of
love,
pain, and a fate that will have its way.
SALT & STORM fits marvelously on the shelves with Shana
Abe
and Talia Vance with its moving romance, magic, and
beauty.
From family relationships are both magical and magically
realistic to an ending that could not go any other way,
Kendall Kulper knows how to tell a fantastic story ringing
with the sounds of true life.
A sweeping historical romance about a witch who foresees
her
own murder—and the one boy who can help change her future.
Sixteen-year-old Avery Roe wants only to take her rightful
place as the witch of Prince Island, making the charms
that
keep the island's whalers safe at sea, but her mother has
forced her into a magic-free world of proper manners and
respectability. When Avery dreams she's to be murdered,
she
knows time is running out to unlock her magic and save
herself.
Avery finds an unexpected ally in a tattooed harpoon boy
named Tane—a sailor with magic of his own, who moves Avery
in ways she never expected. Becoming a witch might stop
her
murder and save her island from ruin, but Avery discovers
her magic requires a sacrifice she never prepared for.
