🌊 SIREN'S TIDE ~ JJ Maybank 🌊 ~ OBX AU ~ ~ Sensitive Topics ~ ~ Trigger Warning ~ ~** Marks Mature Chapters **~ Serena Faye Sinclair looks like a literal dream, but her reality is a beautiful nightmare. Behind her sun-kissed skin and striking green eyes lies a dangerous secret-she isn't entirely human, and the coast is calling her home. The only thing keeping her wild, siren nature anchored to dry land is the delicate green sea glass necklace resting against her collarbone. She had one rule for the summer: blend in, keep her secret buried, and survive. Then came JJ. He's chaotic, dangerous, and fiercely loyal to a fault. He lives his life on the edge of the docks, chasing trouble and running on pure adrenaline. From the moment their worlds collide, the friction between them is electric-a magnetic, breathless pull that neither of them can fight. When a dark, lethal mystery washes up on the docks, Serena and JJ are dragged straight into the center of it. In a tight-knit town built on dirty secrets and fierce loyalties, their explosive chemistry becomes a liability. As the local drama heats up to a boiling point, Serena is forced to play a deadly game: protect her secret, or risk it all for the reckless boy she was never supposed to fall for. The ocean has a wicked appetite. And when this tide rolls in, it's going to drag them both under.
