He was supposed to kill her family.
She was supposed to disappear with them.
Years ago, Cass-son of the Sea King and heir to a ruthless maritime empire-was sent on a mission meant to end a royal bloodline forever. A quiet death. A clean solution. But when the moment came, Cass couldn't do it. His mercy cost him everything. Stripped of his title and cast aside, he vanished into legend, becoming a feared pirate prince sailing with a crew of outcasts, traitors, and ghosts of their former lives.
Lark remembers none of it.
She doesn't remember the palace, the blood-soaked night, or the boy with ocean in his eyes who was meant to be her executioner. All she knows is the orphanage, the streets, and the strange, haunting power in her voice-one that draws attention she never wants and questions no one can answer. She has always been told she survived by chance. That the lost princess died long ago.
When fate drags Cass and Lark back together, the truth resurfaces like a wreck pulled from the deep. The world believes the princess may have survived. Kingdoms whisper. Enemies search. And Cass, who knows exactly who she is-or who she might be-offers her a brutal choice: pretend to be the lost princess and claim a throne soaked in blood... or walk the plank and vanish for good.
But the lie is dangerous.
As rival fleets close in and the Sea King's shadow looms once more, Cass and Lark are forced into close quarters, deception blurring into truth. The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to tell whether Lark is reclaiming a forgotten identity-or being shaped into something she was never meant to be. And what terrifies her more than the memories she's lost... are the feelings she can't outrun.
Because if Lark truly is the lost princess, her survival could ignite a war.
And if she isn't, the lie could cost them everything.
Set against storm-tossed seas and ancient maritime magic, Changing Tides is a story of lost royalty, dangerous bargains, found family, and the cost of defying destiny-where love may be the deadliest risk of all.

- Anastasia-inspired lost princess stories
