A new MM Fantasy Romance Stand Alone, inspired by The Little Mermaid & Atlantis... what if the Prince and the Sea Witch fell in love in a world ruled by evil mermaids and vengeful gods? For fans of Kellen Graves, Elise Kova, and Carissa Broadbent.

'Do I please you, my Prince?'

Prince Ernest Ire will do anything to please his controlling father. Even if that means using his god-given magic to sway the minds of everyone he has ever met. Wealth, royalty, and control over the land and everything on it, but still, it is not enough. With the power to achieve anything, all he wants is to give it up. But everything changes when he is infected with the deadly poison of a Mer bite, and his magic is stolen.

Killian Metropoli made a deal with the god of the ocean, Karakos, on the fateful night when his mother took a blade to his throat and killed him. Gifted with immortality and the power over sea and storm, Killian was offered a second chance at life, for the sole purpose of ridding the oceans of the evil soulless creatures - the Mer, terrifying monsters made from a union between two warring gods.

Time is of the essence, otherwise, Killian will be forced against his will to kill Ernest if he becomes the very monster his life is dedicated to destroying.

Fate is fickle, the threads knotted, and time is running out. Ernest must save his people before he becomes the very monster he has always feared. Killian will do anything to rid himself of his shackles. But an evil darkness is rising, and they must become allies to stop it before the world they know becomes a battlefield for benevolent gods.

Read full series description

In the Darkmourn Universe, the line between light and darkness is constantly shifting. Here, in the wake of a catastrophic event, civilizations rise and fall, and ancient secrets begin to stir. The story follows a cast of reluctant heroes and antiheroes—each driven by their own personal demons and desires—as they navigate a galaxy fractured by war, betrayal, and ambition. These characters are not just fighting for survival; they’re struggling to define who they are in a universe that offers no easy answers.

What sets this series apart is its intricate world-building. The Darkmourn Universe is rich in lore, with each planet, each society, holding its own history and mysteries. Readers will encounter alien species, forgotten magic, and powerful technologies that blur the lines between science fiction and fantasy. But what makes this universe truly compelling is its unpredictability. With every new installment, Alderson reveals deeper layers of a complex narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.

As the characters evolve, so does the universe around them. From political intrigue to dangerous alliances, Darkmourn Universe explores the gray areas of morality, asking tough questions about loyalty, sacrifice, and the price of power. Whether facing down deadly enemies or confronting their own inner turmoil, each journey is both external and deeply personal.

The series doesn’t shy away from its darker themes, but it also offers moments of intense hope and connection, especially as characters begin to uncover not just the mysteries of their universe, but their own places within it. The relationships that unfold—whether fraught with tension, camaraderie, or romance—are as crucial as the battles they fight, making the stakes feel that much higher.

The Darkmourn Universe is a thrilling, unpredictable adventure that will appeal to fans of epic sci-fi and fantasy alike, blending action, heart, and a touch of the unknown. This universe is not for the faint of heart, but for those daring enough to explore its vast, shifting expanse, it promises an unforgettable ride.
