Two sides of the same coin. One ambush. One love story. When the secret of the healing properties of merfolk blood come out, a massacre begins. The landfolk go for their blood. The merfolk retaliate. Lives are lost of both sides- this chapter of the history books is soaked in red. After the massacre, the two sides withdraw and live apart in relative peace. On land: A prince, a serving boy, a body guard, a handmaiden, and a princess. And from the sea: A stranded Siren, and two others set on bringing him home. Easy operation turns nightmare as sparks fly, swords clash, and pirates seize the kingdom. When home, friends, and love has been taken from you, where do you run? And how hard do you fight?

A merman living in a half-sunken Venice must decide between revealing himself to the oppressive humans to pursue the man he wants or repressing his desires to save everyone that matters to him, except himself, in The Sunken City. There isn't even a word for what Caydo is. At seventeen, he only knows that he is different. If Caydo manages to restore the magic that allowed his kind to breathe underwater, they could live free of the humans, but he would be trapped with the merpeople, who will never accept his sexuality. Attracted to a devious human from the surface, Caydo must navigate a new world of card games and vices, which could bring more trouble, instead of the romance and the refuge he craves. At fifteen, Caydo's younger sister, Sarzana, must choose either to stay a mermaid or to become a human, as it is illegal to bend after she turns sixteen. Unbeknownst to her family and friends, she has already chosen a human life designing buildings, which goes against the merpeople's goddess. The surface might not be welcoming to a mermaid, but the humans have the answer to what happened to her father in the attacks ten years ago. Told from multiple perspectives, the world of the merpeople and the ruins of Venice come to life in this engaging story of fearlessness and hope in the face of adversity. NEW CHAPTERS RELEASING EACH FRIDAY! THE COMPLETE BOOK WILL BE AVAILABLE ON NOVEMBER 19TH, 2021! Don't forget! You're magical! Mature Rating due to violence and sexual content.
