A prince or a pirate? Ever since Dwyn Atlantia was young, she's dreamed of visiting the surface: the world above the waves. On her eighteenth birthday she's finally allowed to fulfill her dream. When the human ship that she's watching explodes into flames, she risks her father's wrath to save the humans' lives. Longing for more of that world, Dwyn makes a deal with a sea witch in order to become human. The trade off? If she cannot find a way back to her soul in the span of two weeks, she'll lose it altogether. The deal seemed simple at first: get the polished, poised Prince Halloran to fall in love with her, thereby giving her a piece of his soul. But, as she's trapped under the watchful and resentful eye of ex-pirate and guard Jeneil Valor, things for the mermaid get a bit more complicated. Will she be able to achieve her goal, or will she be forever lost to the waves?
