Twenty-year-old Erin Murphy isn't the slim, blonde, model-type woman that men prefer. Once she'd dyed her dark hair a shocking shade of red and worn green contact lens in order to attract attention and it had ended disastrously.
She has decided that she wouldn't ever change herself again in order to find love, but is there any man who will love her as she is?
Merman Jacob Spellman has always been attracted to fuller curves. None of the women on MerLand suit his taste. He'd wondered if he was destined to settle for less than his heart's desire, until his older brother Adam finds happiness with an Earth woman and makes Jacob realize that he has to explore further afield.
He sees Erin walking along Portobello Beach, senses her loneliness and longing to be loved, and decides that she will be his.
All Erin needs is to believe that a handsome prince wants her just as she is.
All Jacob needs to do is convince her that the Kingdom of MerLand is a better place than Earth.
