How Sea Haven Began
Christine Feehan, dubbed the 'Queen of Paranormal Romance' by USA Today, crafted the Sea Haven series as a spin-off from her popular Drake Sisters novels, set in the same mystical Northern California town. Inspired by her own upbringing in a large family of thirteen siblings, Feehan infused Sea Haven with themes of sisterhood and resilience. The series, also known as Sisters of the Heart, debuted in 2010 with Water Bound, introducing readers to a new cast of women bound by shared trauma and supernatural gifts.
Feehan’s knack for blending suspense, romance, and paranormal elements shines in Sea Haven, reflecting her lifelong passion for storytelling. Her goal was to create a world where broken souls find healing through love and community, making the series a heartfelt extension of her creative vision.
The Heart of Sea Haven
The Sea Haven series spans six novels, each focusing on one of six women who form a chosen family after enduring violent pasts. Set against the backdrop of a charming coastal town, the stories weave elemental magic—water, air, fire, and more—into tales of romance and danger. The women’s bonds are tested by external threats and the arrival of the Prakenskii brothers, trained assassins with their own dark histories.
Key books include Water Bound, where sea urchin diver Rikki rescues Lev Prakenskii, a man with no memory but deadly instincts, sparking a passionate connection. In Spirit Bound, artist Judith Henderson’s fiery spirit draws undercover agent Stefan Prakenskii into a web of seduction and peril. Air Bound follows Airiana Ridell, whose air-based gifts make her a target of a shadowy cabal, until Maxim Prakenskii becomes her protector. The series culminates in Bound Together, where Blythe Daniels confronts her past with Viktor Prakenskii, tying together the Drake Sisters and Sisters of the Heart sagas.
Themes of healing, trust, and empowerment resonate throughout, with Feehan’s signature blend of steamy romance and high-stakes suspense. The coastal setting, infused with magic and mystery, feels like a character itself, drawing readers into a world where love conquers all.
Why Sea Haven Resonates
Sea Haven has carved a special place in the paranormal romance genre, enchanting readers with its emotional depth and vivid storytelling.
