Star-crossed lovers from different worlds. Will their love survive?
When Talia agreed to take a break from her research to spend a week at the beach, ending up a captive in the depths of the ocean was the last thing she ever expected. Her best friend and travel companion Janelle has a fondness for fairy tales and is sure that their abductors, with their gold-medal swimmer physiques, are sea people—mermen. Talia knows that’s ridiculous, but when one of the men, Ballard, slips her his knife and lets her in on his own purpose for being there, she starts to suspect that the truth is beyond anything even Janelle could have imagined. She can’t deny her attraction to Ballard, but also can’t fully trust this man and his extraordinary claims. To get back home, she may have no choice.
Ballard spent the past year infiltrating a rogue military group suspected of breaking the sacred and critical First Tenet of Below: Do not contact those Above. His mission is to discover the location of a secret deep sea base and destroy the rogues' ability to travel to the sea's surface. But he can't help his feelings for Talia, the beautiful, intelligent woman from Above. The deeper he falls, the more he risks his own mission—and the future of every human on Earth.
As they are drawn deeper into danger, Talia and Ballard begin to realize that their only hope for survival is each other.
