Can’t Wait Wednesday – HUNT ON DARK WATERS by Katee Robert
“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about. It is a meme that I have loved participating in since I first started blogging, but as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.

My selection for this week is HUNT ON DARK WATERS by Katee Robert. This one honestly wasn’t on my radar until I heard Katee talk about it at a recent fall preview event. As soon as she described it as having pirates and witches, I was sold!
HUNT ON DARK WATERS by Katee Robert
by Berkley
Publication Date: November 7, 2023
Sail the magical high seas with this first book in a new sexy fantasy romance series from Katee Robert, the New York Times bestselling author of the TikTok smash-hit Neon Gods.
Evelyn is a witch with a perfect storm of impulses: terrible taste in bed partners, sticky fingers, and a lust for danger. After she steals from her vampire ex and falls through a portal to another realm, she’s fished out of the waters by a band of seafarers and their telekinetic captain. She’s immediately given a choice—join their group or die.
Bowen has no memory of his life before he became one of the Cŵn Annwn. He and his pirate crew are bound by vow to patrol through Threshold, the magical sea in between realms, keeping the portals to other worlds safe. When he rescues Evelyn, he doesn’t expect to be attracted to the unflappably brassy pickpocket. The longer he spends in her presence, the more he begins to question if his heart is the next thing she’ll steal.
But as tension heats up between Bowen and Evelyn, danger escalates as well. Because Evelyn has no intention of keeping her vows to the Cŵn Annwn, and if she betrays the crew, both she and Bowen will pay the ultimate price….

I see Katee Robert’s books everywhere but I’ve never read her before. I do like the sound of this, especially since there’s a pirate vibe going on😁

I’ve read one other book by this author which I enjoyed and know she is well loved. This might be one I give a go.
This will be my first time reading something from her so I’m definitely curious to see if I like her writing.
