Washed Up

Maverik Collins made a wish one humid night.

She dreams of becoming a surfer; to ride the tallest waves and to carve the longest barrel her island has to offer. Despite the countless hours spent daydreaming of herself in the waves, there's just one problem.

She's terrified of the water.

Unable to overcome her fear of the ocean, Maverik is at a crossroads. Her mother is pushing for her to tryout for the local surfing team, and unbeknownst to her, Maverik hasn't set so much as a foot into the water for years. Wanting to please her mother and fufill her dream of becoming a surfer, she makes a wish. To conquer her phobia and get on that board.

Little could Maverik predict, her wish is granted in the form of a boy, washed up on shore. A boy who's skin is peppered with scales and commands the sea. Maverik begins to learn that there is more to the local legends than she thought, and that there is much more to this mysterious boy than his hard exterior and cold green eyes.
