college lab marine mermaid merman ocean research science sea testing

Arizona's fresh out of college, and has just landed a job, of sorts, at the local marine research center. She's content with all that's going on; there's always something to learn at the lab, and the experiments are also fun. One day, the lab researchers discover something more than just a little interesting in the sea, and the creatures they've brought with them aren't too happy. She meets Kinte and Rikon, two mermen caught just off the coasts. As she learns more about them, Arizona realizes there's more to them, herself, and the lab than she anticipated. Secrets and stories are hidden in every corner of the white washed buildings, and Arizona's no longer sure of those around her, and especially not of herself. And when an accidental slip of the tongue lets out a secret, the world around her shatters.All Rights Reserved

Species Unknown [Book 2: Pisces) by fantasynote

*MERMAN ROMANCE* Moving from the warm beaches of Oahu to the rocky shores of Monterey, California was supposed to be a fresh start for college graduate Leilani Ono. However, as she starts working for the esteemed genetics laboratory hidden along the chilly California coast, she realizes that her attempt at escaping her past has actually thrown her deep into a web of convoluted lies, mad scientists, and the horrors of human experimentation. ~*~ Gripped with panic, I turned away only to come face to face with the very thing I tried to run from. I gasped, stumbling back. Its face was shadowed, but I could still see the outline of its features. Illuminated by the reflection of the stars, I could see the sharp jawline and steely eyes that regarded me. A face that, even in the dark of night, was distinctly masculine. "Why are you here." A chilling voice seethed from the shadows. It was as cold as the night around us, with a slight hiss that was threatening enough to send my heart racing even faster. ~*~ #1 in EXPERIMENT #1 in MERPEOPLE #1 in BEAUTY AND THE BEAST #1 in OCEAN The second book in the Species Unknown series. Can easily be read as a stand-alone novel but I recommend reading Book 1: Aves first for more context. *COMPLETED*
