THE SIREN'S COURTSHIP

When young scholar Elara tries to teach a lonely merman how to court, she makes a fatal mistake. Her "student" is actually Lapis, an ancient, apex-predator siren. Taking her lesson as an invitation, the obsessive monster abducts his new mate, plunging them into a dangerous game of captivity and survival. Bound by a forgotten childhood promise and a lethal attraction, Elara must outsmart the ocean's most fearsome ruler—ultimately turning the tables to capture the heart of the beast.
