THE MERMAID DRAKSON

Marine researcher Noah Vale’s life changes when he is dragged beneath the waves by Draxen Vaal, a powerful merman who saves him with a kiss and leaves a mysterious mark on his wrist. After Draxen is captured and taken to a secret underwater laboratory, scientists discover that he responds only to Noah. As their blood, bodies, and emotions begin to connect, Noah slowly changes—and becomes part of the experiment himself. When Noah learns that Draxen will be dissected alive, he frees him and escapes into the deep sea. But Draxen is not merely a captive. He is the lost heir to an ancient underwater kingdom, and Noah’s mark may be the key to awakening it.
