From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah Beth Durst comes the third magical adventure in the beloved Spellshop series — a cozy fantasy romance set on the high seas.

Marin has always belonged on the great blue sea. Betrayed by love, she lives and works as a supply runner, sailing from island to island with Perri the sea serpent and Ree the sailor shrub as her crew. On a routine trip to the capital, she finds a revolution underway — and her friend Dax in the line of fire.

What starts as a rescue evolves into a deal: Marin will keep Dax on as a member of her crew if he pretends to be her boyfriend at the End-of-Harvest Festival back home. But against her better judgment, Marin finds herself intrigued by his stubbornness, his passion for stories, his charming smile — and realizes that perhaps she isn't saving him. Maybe it's the other way around.

Sea of Charms is a cozy fantasy romance about finding your crew, your family, and moreover, finding yourself. Read in whatever order your heart desires, but don't miss The Spellshop and The Enchanted Greenhouse.
