Mercadia Calling

A Jersey Shore lifeguard. An immortal mermaid. An apocalypse churning beneath the waves. Jonah Whitmore wants little more than a quiet summer in the sun, until the old man he'd just saved whispers a single word. Merliens. Something inside Jonah shifts, and hours later, his legs twist into an emerald-green tail, binding him to the sea. Desperate for answers, he follows the reckless and curious mermaid, Mezzy, into Atlantis, where an entire civilization has been cut off from their home realm of Mercadia. And Mercadia is dying. The only way back is a portal that responds to one thing: Jonah and Mezzy, together. The deeper Jonah goes, the harder it is to leave. Dive deep. Get salty.
