Synopsis

Hans Christian Andersen has spent his life hunting monsters. He never expects the most dangerous one to be a mermaid princess who steals his heart.

Princess Serena of Nautica will do anything to save her kingdom from the Enchantress’ monsters. So despite her weak fin, she embraces the siren magic and enters the deadly competition for the crown. The merfolk who hunts the most undead creatures in Neverworld and brings back their essence to protect the kingdom, wins the throne.

But when Serena comes face-to-face with Hans in battle, she discovers he’s the Enchantress’s most feared hunter and the greatest threat to everything she’s fighting for. Yet the two realize they need each other. Hans must capture Serena’s story, while Serena believes she can siren him to help her defeat the Enchantress.

Forced into an uneasy alliance, they venture through enchanted forests, haunted waters, and a sea witch’s castle, where every secret draws them closer, and every truth threatens to tear them apart.

Because if Hans fails, he’ll lose the people he swore to protect. If Serena fails, her kingdom will fall. And if they surrender to the forbidden love growing between them, both worlds may be lost.

Perfect for readers who love fairy-tale retellings, magical competitions, morally gray hunters, witty banter, no-spice chemistry, and happily-ever-afters earned through impossible choices.
