Mack Hinto came into the world in the middle of a vicious firefight—it’s said her own mother refused to leave her battle-station or cut the cord to her daughter until after they were safely away from the authorities out to end them. She’s happily lived her life in danger and turmoil ever since.

As a member of the Septurnum Tavali, Mack knows the face of her enemy like the back of her hand. So when she sees a chance to avenge her family’s honor by figuratively blackening Ryn Dane’s eye and stealing his Wasturnum cargo, she seizes it. What she never expects is the lengths the competing Tavali captain will go to, to reclaim his cargo . . . and his dignity.

The illegitimate son of the queen of a pirate guild and a murdered aristocrat, Ryn Dane has always been torn between two worlds and classes. Two destinies at war with each other. Because of that, there is nothing he hates more than politics and family feuds. Nothing more than treachery and duplicity. So when the woman who seduces him to steal his cargo turns out to be the daughter of his mother’s sworn enemy—whose family has a generational grudge-match against his own, his need for vengeance goes into overdrive. No one will play him for a fool, especially not over politics.

Yet Mack is a formidable force, and as war tears their universe apart, old enemies return pitting the two of them against each other. Now, if Ryn doesn’t find a way to make peace, more than just their lives will be at stake. The entire Tavali Nation will fall and millions of their citizens will die.

Setting: Tavali Wasturnum & Septurnum Nations

I decided to check out Sherrilyn's website again to see if there's been any change on a possible publication. The last time I've checked the date was back in August 2021 and there's a change...The book is still listed as No. 16 in the League series but with the 'Original Publication Date: December 31, 2024'.

So now we have two books in the series with the same publication date. Hm, I wonder which one will be released. Or if any of them will be or if we get another new date.

Btw, Amazon has the expected publication date for Born of Trouble listed as being December 25th 2027.

Considering, I read the last book of the League series back in 2018 it has been a long wait.

August 2021
As the date of the expected publication was getting near, I thought it was time to check up on Born of Trouble.
Well, the trouble is on the horizon....far away. The new Publication date on Sherrilyn's homepage says: Original Publication Date: December 31, 2025 !!!!


December 2019
There are 2 different dates on Sherrilyn's homepage:
Original Publication Date: December 31, 2022 / Pub date TBA
//
I'm sorry Sherrilyn had so much trouble these last years. I wish her all the best - personally and for for her career.

Also, I'm not going to change my earlier reviews. They're a reflection of how dissatisfied I was with constant changes of publishing dates. And no, some of us don't use Facebook. (Yeah, I know I'm an alien.) And I come from a galaxy far, far away as I also don't use Twitter.

August 2018
New old publication date from SK's website: December 31st 2019!
[just a short edit: found at Amazon.de] expected publication date: January 7th 2020
New expected publication date from SK's website...TBA!!

LOL, it becomes more and more likely that I don't need to look for this book before sometime during June/July 2021!
It also seems that I won't have my hoped 2-3 books by that time. Meh. It's getting annoying. I'm seriously thinking of giving up this author and her books for good. She's become unreliable.


January 2018
And she's done it again...a new release date: Original Publication Date: December 31, 2018 (from SK's website)

Oh well, I'm used to it by now. I'll just forget this series for the next 2 years and by 2020 I hopefully have 2 or 3 books to read back to back, just like last time. Hm, but then I waited 3 years...okay, I'll be back in 2021.

Website update**


*Sherri apologizes for the delay in getting her books out. For those who haven’t heard, her life was torn apart during her divorce by an out-of-control judge and a corrupt judicial system that held her and her family hostage for more than two years and left her bankrupt and without a place to live while threatening to take away everything from her, including all her book rights, her freedom, and to force her to write for free to pay the unimaginable legal fees of those who were torturing her. Thankfully, her publisher is still behind her, but it will take some time for her to get back on a “normal” publishing schedule. Please be patient as Sherri and her publisher work together to get the books her fans love back into production and out to the fans who have been so eagerly waiting for them. As soon as we have release dates for them, we will let everyone know.
