Eighteen-year-old Mariam El-Kashef is about to get married to a man ten years older than her own father. There is nothing she can do about it. Her father owes the man more money than he can repay.
In a last ditch effort, she goes to Sunny Sands Beach with a large mirror in the hope of transporting herself into an alternate universe as she'd once dreamed she had done as a child.
Merman Lucius Archer's life feels as though it's spinning out of control. He never imagined that he and his identical twin Lucas would ever live separate lives: one on MerLand and the other on Earth.
Like all merman twins, they had hoped to share one Intended mate, but the Fates have decided against it. Lucas has found his mate on Earth; if Lucius doesn't find his too, he will have no choice but to return to MerLand.
They have grown up so incredibly close, that would feel like losing an arm.
Then Lucius finds Mariam, his Intended, less than a week before she marries a man she has no desire to wed.
He will do whatever it takes to get her out of the sticky situation, but is either of them prepared for the repercussions of messing with a man dangerous enough to kill?
