For seventeen years, Aria Lockhart has hidden her magic, knowing that a single slip could expose her family's secret. But when she accidentally turns her morning tea to seawater, everything changes. Her brother's tide-script blazes with ancient symbols, storm magic stirs in impossible ways, and her father's five-year disappearance suddenly seems less like abandonment and more like a warning. As coastal communities worldwide begin to wake to long-forgotten power, two forces rise to shape magic's future. The Sundered seek to force all traditions into immediate unity, while ancient dreamers stir in lightless depths, offering darker paths to power. Caught between these opposing forces, Aria and her siblings must discover what magic truly means to become - before competing voices tear reality itself apart. In a world where fishing songs guide ancient partnerships and weather-workers paint storms across transformed seas, The Echo Tide weaves a spellbinding tale about the power of choice, the strength of difference, and what happens when separated magics learn to flow together once again. Perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Maggie Stiefvater, this enchanting debut novel will draw readers into a world where magic flows like water, and every harbor holds secrets waiting to be remembered.
