Mermen. Monsters. And a lot of Manipulation. An at-odds prisoner (merman) and warden (mermaid) are about to set off to cross the deep ocean and end up running for their lives. Dive into the twisted waters of Dark and Lovely Mermaids, a forced proximity, enemies to lovers paranormal romance where the love is deep and the ocean is wild.
Ellara Merme made a bad deal. To save her friends and human sweetheart, she agreed to become a sea-slave, the lowest class in the mermaid world. It’s hell on earth, at the bottom of the ocean. A terrible choice. The only decision that’s worse, is the choice she’s about to make.
The leader of the mermaids has offered her an out: Deliver the merman prisoner to Neptune’s army and all will be forgiven. No problem. Should be an easy mission. Except…
… the deep ocean is full of sea monsters itching to make the mermaid their next meal.
… plus she might be catching feelings for the merman she’s supposed to be delivering. Could he possibly be so charming? Or are there other manipulations at play?
With danger crashing with every wave, Ellara has to decide: should she stick to the plan and save herself from sea-slavery? Or dive headfirst into the waters of romance? Can she outsmart the ocean and resist the merman’s charms? Or will she end up making an even worse bargain to survive?
Dark and Lovely Mermaids is a thrilling, loyalty-testing, romantic underwater adventure full of monsters, natural disasters and an army of mermen—an underwater story so enchanting you won’t want to come up for air!
He reached for the fish in my palm, but instead of nipping it up with his teeth, he swept my skin with his lips. He licked the dinner into his own mouth and tucked it back into his cheek. Swallowing in one quick motion. Then smoothly, without raising his head, before I could pull back, he dragged his tongue against my palm to grab any salt and pepper remains.
My stomach lurched.
The tickle lit a small fire on my skin.
I watched him move. So surprised, I didn’t flinch or pull away.
Mmmm.
He licked my hand a second time, teasing my skin with his mouth. I should have yanked back, but didn’t. Let him have his way with my hand. Entranced. Soft and slow he dragged. Before my prisoner's lips left my skin, he sucked my finger, nipping his teeth on the tip. Desire thudded in my chest. I was so shocked, I hadn’t budged.
“That hit the spot,” he said. Low and smooth. “A wonderful dinner. Thank you, mermaid… for every bite.”
