In 1912 Moscow, sixteen-year-old Countess Maria Suvorova stands on the threshold of a glittering future. Born into one of Russia's most prestigious aristocratic families, her biggest concern is impressing potential suitors at her first society ball. But when tragedy strikes that very night, Maria's sheltered world begins to crumble. As revolution engulfs Russia, Maria finds herself caught in history's cruel tide. The old order collapses, forcing her to navigate a dangerous new reality where her aristocratic background becomes a liability rather than an asset. In these tumultuous times, she forms an unexpected connection with a charismatic actor from the Moscow Art Theater—a relationship that will shape the course of her life in ways she cannot imagine. Fate eventually leads Maria to Paris, where she joins the vibrant Russian émigré community struggling to preserve their identity in exile. As the decades pass and Europe descends into another world war, Maria must draw on reserves of courage she never knew she possessed. From the lavish ballrooms of Imperial Russia to the bohemian cafés of interwar Paris and the shadow-filled streets of the Nazi occupation, A Countess from Moscow traces one woman's extraordinary journey through the defining events of the 20th century. It's a story of reinvention, of finding strength in the darkest hours, and of a love powerful enough to transcend decades of separation. This sweeping historical novel celebrates the resilience of the human spirit against the backdrop of a world in flames.

With only his anger to keep him company, Ryland waits for the day he can seek his revenge on his past lover Gwenifer, the sea witch who cursed him. But in his attempts to escape, Ryland has left a trail of sinking ships in his wake. Luckily for him, the world has finally begun to evolve, and with the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte has come the rise of the airship, the only type of vessel that Ryland has a chance of fleeing on. However, none of these ships had yet to reach the West Indies… until one night one does. Emmeline Whittock is the only woman on board the airship the Nyx, and the only one wearing a jacket stained with her brother’s blood. After fleeing from her murderous fiancé and the threats of Napoleon’s army, the Nyx is blown off course and lands in the West Indies, a place they very much shouldn’t be. When attacked by pirates, one man comes to save the day—Ryland, who Emmeline feels a pull towards, even against her better judgment. Agreeing to take him on board, Emmeline and the crew assume their trip will be easy, not realizing that in every rippling wave and growing storm is the wrath of a sea witch, hunting for the man who wasn’t supposed to leave the islands. Against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars and crossing the seas from the Caribbean to New Orleans to Venice, Ryland and Emmeline will both come to learn that betrayals can run deep but love can run deeper, lasting beyond a lifetime. In A Cursed Age, fates will realign, hearts will be broken, and the future of the world will rest in the hands of a very vexed pirate and a misfit crew with everything to lose.
