Lydia is a Marine Biologist, a new mom, and a white witch trying her best to make Earth a better place for her girls. But that's not coming easy when the magical and mythical place that is Earth throws another curve ball when scientists discover a new breed of magical creatures. MERMAIDS. More in the generalized version, Mer people.

So far it's been a disaster since these creatures have been nothing but hostile towards them since the beginning and now have to resort with "kidnapping", study them, and take care of them in the hopes that they will finally agree with trying to build a bond between the multiple species of the land living. 

For Lydia, she's in charge of her branch of this study. It's her job to try and figure out how to help and repair the relationship. So far.... it's just going at a snails pace. Until one day... she receives a new resident. And apparently an infamous one at that.

He goes by the name of SNATCHER.

How will she cope with a hybrid soul stealing mer? Read and find out ~~~!!!! ;)
