Thanks to Netgalley and Rebellion for this eArc in exchange for a review.

I have really mixed thoughts on this one. Loved the premise, though the execution fell short. Actually really liked Morgane as a character, although I couldn't tell at times how old she was meant to be. She came across as about 10 at times. 

As a book sold as a sapphic pirate book with vampires, there was no hint of fantasy until 64% with  a pretty random werewolf appearance. The romance again, came from nowhere at 73% and 90% found the vampires. 

Wish I could say I liked it more than I did, but I can't. Sorry.
