Midnight on the Celestial

Prepare to be enchanted and terrified by Julia Alexandra's debut enemies-to-lovers horror-fantasy, Midnight on the Celestial, set on a nightmarish ocean liner. When heiress Roe Damarcus fails a trial to keep her magic, deemed too dangerous for society, she finds herself serving aboard the Celestial, her family's luxurious magical cruise ship where staff members compete for guest votes to earn a coveted retrial. As a concierge, Roe juggles the demands of affluent guests, cruel bosses, and the suspicion that an infuriatingly handsome silks performer, Ivander, is determined to sabotage her. But the true dangers surface at night when the ship of dreams transforms into a nightmare, killing all who wander its halls. Roe must uncover the secrets of the ship, her family, and their entwined bloody past before she becomes the Celestial's next victim. Staff or guest, no-one is safe in these waters.
