The Mermaid Scale

Broken-hearted and fed up, Nicole agrees to an impromptu beach vacation proposed by her best friend, but she has no idea what she's in for when she accepts a gift from a psychic at a pop-up stand. Somehow, she wakes up later in the body of Kyrie, a mermaid with a tangled past. Kyrie is everything Nicole isn't: determined, outspoken, gorgeous, and...missing. To return to her human realm, Nicole must solve the mystery surrounding her host's disappearance, and the only available help is Kyrie's old lover, Nereus.
Too bad he's nursing a broken heart of his own and can barely even look at her. But when it becomes apparent that somebody wanted Kyrie gone, the two must work together to retrace Kyrie's last moments...or Nicole may be next. This 20, 000 word novella contains some mature language and explicit content. Intended for readers 18 years of age and older.
