She thought he was just the quiet PE teacher. Then she saw him in the water.
Evie wanted ordinary... library work, routine, peace. Then she met the man who wasn't human and who claimed she belonged with him.
One accident tore her from everything familiar. In that moment, she learned what James Sterling truly was: ancient, dangerous, hunted. Secrets surrounded her like circling sharks.
Time running out. Hunters approaching. And between them, a pull strong as the tide itself.
Some loves belong to the deep.
Deepest Blue is a modern romantic fantasy for those of us who loved Twilight and Fifty Shades of Grey, but with a more merman-centric approach. While AI tools helped refine the prose, the story, characters, and creative decisions are entirely my own. This is a fun project for me, so feel free to let me know what you do and don't like. Enjoy!

The Deep
Humanity's last hope for paradise lies submerged beneath the Atlantic Ocean: Nereilora, also known as The Deep. Advertised as a land of endless opportunity where you can be anything you desire, the government paints a perfect picture for a vision so grand you'd never want to leave. But that's precisely what they want you to think. Frederick arrived in The Deep seeking his dream: to be a celebrated pianist. What he found instead was a suffocating reality. He plays for pennies in a rundown bar, his days a monotonous cycle of poverty and despair, barely enough to survive, let alone afford a laser gun to end it all. The TV ads back on land never show the rampant poverty, the lawlessness, or the crushing darkness that truly defines life in Nereilora. And they certainly don't mention the most critical rule: once you're in The Deep, you can't leave. For Frederick, this isn't paradise; it's his personal hell, and he can't fathom why his friend thinks a pen pal program with someone from the surface could possibly make it tolerable. Meanwhile, on land, Henrietta navigates the grimy streets of New New York. Her life is a constant hum of angry customers in the diner, the frequent shouts of rioters demanding change. She tells herself it's "simple but pretty good," even as she buys canned air for her apartment and her boyfriend, who calls her "Hen" for "squawking," becomes increasingly volatile. He's sweet only when he wants to be, his drunken "rough lovemaking" and attempts to "hit some sense into her" dismissed with a self-assured thought that she can always lock the door. To Henrietta, escape is a foreign concept; her life is just fine. So why did her well-meaning friend sign her up for The Deep's mysterious pen pal program, as if she needed a way out? Two different worlds, two lives teetering on the edge. What secrets will surface when their realities collide, and can a connection across the depths offer a lifeline... or only pull them further into The Deep?
The eternality in our ephemerality
Without hesitation we fall... He saved her from dying. He saw her and hated her. He's both her savior and tormentor. But when he saw another man trying to to get close to her..... "i can't fall in love with the one girl i vowed i would hate till eternity seemed short, but if our souls diverge from each other, then why do our hearts ache to pull us closer?" This story is for the helpless romantics who know that behind hate there is a need for love, that behind a sweet smile there are thousands of tears being held back, and that behind a perfectly ornamamented family there are cracks awaiting to be ripped. @thee.officialbookComplete

And when the forgotten truths finally come to light... will they ruin her, or set her free?
