Marcia is a mermaid. And before you stop reading, hear me out. She has a great life, her mom is the queen, she has friends, and three sisters. But when her mom gets in a terrible accident, her and her sisters are forced to go and live up on land. While some things are good-cute clothes, some friends, and the grade-A jerk of the school that makes her heart race too much for her own good, there are bad things- her evil bitch of a cousin, and the fact that she could pulverize them, but they can never know that. Author's note- It's a good story just read it, comment, I'll try to make it better and sorry about all the sea jokes. I couldn't resist ;)
As Claire aims to leave her oppressive stepfamily behind, she befriends Zion. Will he be her ticket to freedom or a distraction in achieving her dreams?

However, when a series of events led Claire closer to Zion, her feelings for him grew from infatuation to love. And despite fighting hard to keep her feelings contained by distancing herself from Zion, he was determined to show her that he's earned a spot in her life.
