DELUXE EDITION--a gorgeous paperback edition featuring vivid orange sprayed edges, a beautiful color illustration, and a never-before-seen bonus short story!

Bookshops & Bonedust meets Our Flag Means Death in this cozy fantasy on the low seas, where lesbian pirates find out if enemies actually can become lovers!

Kianthe and Reyna are on the hunt for dragon eggs to save their hometown—but it requires making a deal with Diarn Arlon, lord of the legendary Nacean River. Simply capture the river pirate Serina, who’s been plaguing Arlon's supply chains, and bring her in for justice. Easy peasy.

Begrudgingly, the couple joins forces with Bobbie, one of Arlon’s constables determined to capture the pirate. Except Bobbie and Serina have a more complicated history than anyone realized, and it might jeopardize everything.

While Kianthe and Reyna watch this relation-shipwreck from afar, it quickly becomes apparent that these disaster lesbians need all the help they can get. Luckily, matchmaking is Reyna’s favorite pastime.

The dragon eggs may have to wait.

Reviews

Praise for A Pirate’s Life for Tea:

“At turns sweet, spicy, and thrilling, A Pirate’s Life for Tea provides fans of cozy fantasies a rich confection of a novel to enjoy, preferably with a cup of tea.”–Booklist

“Charming, pun-filled, gentle, and deeply affirming. Thorne spins out the story at an easy pace, creating a feeling of calm and ease, even as a tumble of angst and misadventures fill the plot… delightful.”–Library Journal, on A Pirate’s Life for Tea

Praise for Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea:

“Readers of Travis Baldree and TJ Klune will feel right at home with this cozy sapphic romantasy.” —Publishers Weekly

“Like the tea they serve and the company they keep, this is a read to soothe and comfort.” —Library Journal

“Can’t Spell Treason without Tea might best be described by quoting the grandfather from cult classic The Princess Bride, since the book does contain ‘fighting, torture, revenge . . .monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles’.” —Booklist

About the Author

Rebecca Thorne is an author of all things fantasy, sci-fi, and romantic, such as the Tomes & Tea series. She thrives on deadlines, averages 2,700 words a day, and tries to write at least 3 books a year. (She also might be a little hyper-focused ADHD.)

After years in the traditional publishing space, Rebecca pivoted into self-publishing. Now, she’s found a happy medium as a hybrid author, and leans into her love of teaching by helping other authors find their perfect publication path.

When she’s not writing (or avoiding writing), Rebecca can be found traveling the country as a flight attendant, or doing her best impression of a granola-girl hermit with her two dogs. She’s always scheming to move to a mountain town and open a bookshop that serves tea.
