Water Wishes: Bound by Tides

A YA Fantasy Novel by Freya Aguiar

Book One of the Water Wishes Trilogy

Bay has always been told to stay far from the ocean.

She never knew why. It was simply a rule her father wouldn't bend. It had always been just the two of them, drifting through life with more questions than answers. But when the sea begins to call her name, Bay can't ignore it. And once she answers, nothing will ever be the same.

Drawn into a world of tide-bound magic and unexpected friendships, Bay finds herself unraveling secrets she never meant to discover. Her hair begins to darken. Her powers awaken. And her wishes, whispered from the heart, begin to come true.

But the more Bay uncovers about her past, the more she fears what it might cost her. Her mind feels like it's slipping. Her Light-voice is panicking. And every answer brings her closer to a truth she may not be ready to face.

Water Wishes: Bound by Tides is a whimsical and emotionally rich YA fantasy about magic, memory, and the journey to uncover who you truly are. For readers who believe the ocean holds secrets, and sometimes, those secrets hold you back.

Perfect for fans of:

• Slow-burn fantasy with powerful inner voices
• Magical identity reveals and haunting mysteries
• Mermaid mythology and matriarchal lore
• Found family, fate, and the cost of wishes

The ocean is calling.

And this time, Bay is ready to listen.
