A Kingdom to Drown Me
by Emma Al-munshi
When a game of cards has telepath Mona Al Maii fleeing for her life, an attractive spy named Rocco Reign drags her to an underwater kingdom where she awakens an old magic. With her brother's life on the line and the threat of the oceanic sky failing, will her inner demons drown her before she can save her people, or will she fall at the hands of an unknown enemy?

Oh wow, I really love sensitivity reading. There's something so cool about being able to use your experience to make other stories more accurate and empathetic.

If anyone needs help with their trans characters, please take a look at my website! I'd love to work together!

Have spent the day wandering London and eating far too much food. Topped it all off with a little bookish treat 👍🏼

When a card game has telepath Mona fleeing town, an attractive spy drags her to an underwater kingdom where she wakes an old magic. But with the oceanic sky failing, will her inner demons drown her before she can save her people or will she fall at the hands of enemies unknown?
