Maren was born with the ocean in her soul...
Continuing the conservation efforts her father left behind, along with the remnants of his broken mind, she’s spent her life researching ways to save the underwater world that she loves. But, with scant months left in her graduate program, her slimy ex-boyfriend steals her spot on a classified research project that could’ve been the break she’d been waiting for. Her consolation prize? Janitor duty at the Monterey Bay aquarium.
Counting down the days until graduation, Maren vows to forget about love altogether and focus on more important pursuits, like getting into that lab and showing who the superior scientist is once and for all. But when an unexpected opportunity gives her the chance she’s been waiting for, she discovers the true subject of the lab’s top secret project- a merman with ocean eyes and the unparalleled ability to make the heart she set aside race with a rhythm that rivals the moon and tides.
As the lab’s experiments push him towards the brink of death, Maren begins to question the lengths she’ll go to for her research, and if this merman may hold the answers she’s been looking for all along. With time running out to save him, she must decide what truly matters, and if she can free him- how in all the seven seas she is going to hide a merman in the middle of Monterey Bay!
