The Ever Seas by LJ Andrews

Last year, I dove headfirst into the indie-published Ever Seas series by LJ Andrews. I promptly lost an entire weekend to its morally gray kings, fierce heroines, and lush Viking-inspired world. All three books landed on my list of Top Reads of 2024. Now, they’re returning in beautiful new editions from Ace, complete with bonus material.

If you missed these the first time around, now is the perfect time to dive in. The series delivers enemies-to-lovers tension that burns slow and bright. It also offers found-family bonds that will make you ache and political intrigue tangled with romance. And with Ace rolling them out in quick succession, you won’t have to wait long between installments.

The Ever King
They stole his crown. So he stole their daughter. Erik Bloodsinger has waited years to take his vengeance against the man who murdered his father and chained his kingdom beneath the waves. Livia, the enemy’s daughter, accidentally breaks the Ever free — and becomes the pawn in his ruthless game. Dark romance, sharp banter, and a slow-burn connection between two equally dangerous hearts. Grab your copy here!

The Ever Queen
The king’s wrath knows no boundaries — and neither does his queen’s will to survive. Captured and separated by enemies, Livia and Erik will spill blood to find each other again. This installment raises the stakes with desperate rescue missions, political twists, and new realms to explore, all while deepening the bond between the entire Ever crew. Pre-Order here 🏴‍☠️

The Mist Thief
She tried to kill him, so he made her his wife. After losing in battle, Skadi is forced into an arranged marriage with Jonas, a fae prince determined to uncover the fire beneath her carefully controlled exterior. Their union begins as a political alliance but quickly becomes something deeper, blending sharp banter, slow-building trust, and undeniable attraction. This is arranged marriage with high stakes, rich worldbuilding, and a romance that burns as fiercely as the battles they face together. Secure your copy here!

With unforgettable characters, intricate worldbuilding, and just the right balance of emotional depth and romantic tension, the Ever Seas series sweeps you away and doesn’t let go. I loved these stories the first time around, and I’m already counting down the days until I can experience them all over again — now with extra scenes to savor.

And if you’re as hooked on LJ Andrews’ worlds as I am, don’t miss the interview Leah and I did with her about Broken Souls and Bones — one of my absolute favorites. You can listen here for behind-the-scenes insights, writing talk, and plenty of fangirling.
