The Bride's Potion
(2026)(The fourth book in the Ghost Coast Coven series)
A novel by M Scott Swanson
Every bride dreams of being swept away.
I was kidnapped by a pirate.
I’m Lauren—food influencer, self-made chef, and, until recently, a woman trying very hard to pretend my perfect wedding did not feel like a noose. The dress was flawless. The groom was powerful. The guest list could have bought half of Savannah.
And every instinct I had was screaming run.
Then someone made the choice for me.
A mercenary pirate takes me hostage and reveals the truth no one bothered to put on the wedding invitation: I am not just a bride. I am not just a chef. I am not even entirely what I thought I was.
I am a potion maker.
And I have been promised to a sultan with ties to demons.
Unfortunately for my captors, I have spent my whole life turning scraps into feasts, pressure into charm, and bad odds into something worth serving. Now I have to do the same with my magic. The only way out may be a potion dangerous enough to kill me before it frees me.
But I am done being plated, polished, and passed from one powerful man to another.
If they wanted a quiet bride, they stole the wrong woman.
The Bride’s Potion continues the Ghost Coast Coven, a Southern Gothic supernatural suspense series about seven women, awakened powers, old evil, dangerous bargains, and the world that refuses to let them go.
Genre: Urban Fantasy
