This is the story of a girl. A girl who is lost. A girl who is alone. A girl who craves love. This is the story of a girl who answered the call of the ocean...and lived to regret it.

BOOK ONE IN THE LOVE AND MYTH SERIES. ❝Trying not to love him was like fighting the ocean - like saltwater filling my lungs until it was impossible to breathe and every part of me was his.❞ There's a rumour in Tessa Woods' hometown, one that has claimed the lives of many young girls. Whispers of a monster at the bottom of the watery depths seeking a human bride, only to devour them instead. Tess doesn't believe in ghost stories made to keep children away from the ocean, but even she cannot deny the number of young girls washed ashore, lifeless. No one knows what drives them to their deaths, but Tess cannot shake a memory that she too, could have been one of those girls. Whatever the truth, she keeps a clear distance. Then a stranger walks into a bar, eyes as blue as the ocean and the scent of salt-water on his skin and Tess feels it. Feels the pull - a siren's call. The ocean wants her and this time, it is not letting her go. And then there's him. A stranger with the vast ocean in his eyes, brimming with secrets, waiting... waiting for her. Tess must find a way to break the curse, but there are forces far greater than she knows at work and time is running out.

In this Greek Myth, the story of Coral Reefs is revealed. As you learn about the story of a young girl and her family through my original myth. This story may be short but it is a good one.
