I Smashed His Tank, Now the Merman Prince Claims Me is a contemporary coastal fantasy set in Moonport. Port heir Lucien breaks into an illegal sea-folk auction, smashes a giant glass tank and rescues injured, voiceless merman Nerys. Nerys, crown prince of the Deep Sea Court, loses his memory after his royal vessel is sabotaged. Explosives marked with the Marlow crest drive him to hide his identity and investigate beside Lucien. Harbor security chief Theo doubts Nerys all along. As the sea-folk trafficking ring and villain Harold’s plot unfold, a war between the deep sea and Moonport looms. Nerys reveals his royal title, builds a sea embassy in Moonport, and teams up with Lucien to shut down the Abyss Market and rescue captives. At last, he proposes to Lucien, guarding the shared coast together.
