Shot at by drug dealers and left to drown, marine biologist Heidi is rescued by the hottest boat bum she's ever seen. Tall, dark and handsome, Jake is every girl's dream. But with her best friend missing or dead and the bad guys still after her, the last thing she has time for is romance. As a merman, exiled from his colony and cursed to shapeshift with the moon, Jake can't afford to be around humans, especially a marine biologist who might discover his species. But he can't throw Heidi to the drug dealers and the possibly corrupt law enforcement. He'll fight drug lords, pirates and even the gods to protect her. More complications arise when Jake's family shows up looking for help, but the biggest problem of all is whether Jake and Heidi can resist the massive attraction that grows between them. A Romantica® paranormal erotic romance from Ellora's Cave
