The Silence of Deceit
The Deceit Trilogy Book 1
by Jillian Eagan
Genre: YA High Fantasy
The nation of Seity.
Four ruling families.
One merciless tyrant.
When Eldon Durane executes a noble
family and extinguishes all magic, he ignites a war that spans generations.
Two decades later, Lady Rosalie Yorke and her best friend,
Silence, are uprooted from their comfortable lives to escape the spreading
war. But Rosalie's world shatters when ruthless raiders kidnap her—only
for her fate to collide with Crowe, the notorious pirate captain of the Deceit.
Crowe wants nothing to do with Seity’s political turmoil, but the thirst for
revenge leads him to Rosalie. Hoping to change his luck, he decides to extort
Rosalie’s father for a ransom.
Rosalie refuses to be anyone’s pawn, and Crowe has no patience for nobility. As
the two bicker and dodge danger, Seity’s long-buried secrets begin to emerge
from the shadows.
With Eldon's deadly plan looming, Rosalie and Crowe must set aside their
differences. Should they fail, Rosalie may lose everything.
Perfect for fans of Adrienne Young's Fable and Amie

Deceit is a seafaring tale of betrayal, friendship, and survival. A

adventures filled with magic and rebellion.
What readers are
saying:
"War is a noble’s game; pirating is for
rule breakers."
This line perfectly sums up The Silence of Deceit. We have
political intrigue. We have swashbuckling pirates. We have action. We
have family secrets. And MORE!....Bring in Crowe, our dashing, cocky MMC and
book boyfriend for all you readers who need a charming pirate to fall in love
with."

"This is the kind of book where you feel every single
word that's on the page. I was right there with Rosalie when her whole life
took a major twist, and I was there when she found herself. I think that's what
I will take with me from this book, Rosalie's strength and unwavering loyalty.
It doesn't matter what life throws at her she will endure, and she will move
heaven on earth for the ones she loves."
