Kelsea Glass doesn't believe in mermaids - or rather, she didn't until she finds out first-hand not only that merfolk are real, but that the bite of a merman can turn a human into a mermaid. Now she is stuck with some guy who bit her, trying to figure out what he wants and how to get back home.

"Fine," she said, upset. "You are a beast, a monster."
The merman brushed off the insult. "Be careful who you call a beast. You are about to turn into one yourself."

Beauty and the Beast with some fishy twists.

ON HIATUS - will be back soon! Thanks for your patience.
