Tide Born

By Valerie Claussen

A widowed fisherman's life changes forever when his morning catch yields a baby girl whose skin shimmers with fish scales that dissolve to reveal human flesh. Determined to protect her and keep her far from whoever cast her into the sea, he moves them from Alaska's icy waters to sunny San Diego.
Years later, the teenage girl, Coralie, finds her courage and steps into the ocean for the first time since her rescue, revealing her mermaid form. When her adoptive father begins to fear her merpeople family is searching for her and suspects he may have stolen her from them, they return to Alaska to uncover the truth. There, Coralie learns her mother is a powerful mermaid queen, her father is human, and her identical brothers have been searching for her since the day she vanished.
Swept into a dangerous world of power, shapeshifters, and court politics, Coralie faces the queen's demand that she marry a charming merman and claim the throne. But her heart belongs to the human world and to someone who cannot follow her beneath the waves.
With the tides rising and danger closing in, Coralie must choose whether to embrace the destiny the ocean demands or fight for the life and love she has always wanted.
