Overview

It’s not easy being someone’s fairy tale. Leigh Hurley is making a name for himself among thieves and criminals, even if it isn’t the life he would have chosen. Screwing over the Moretti brothers, however, might be his worst call yet. Sinking to the bottom of the river with weights on his ankles one minute, the next, Leigh finds himself on the riverbank, somehow having escaped certain death. All he remembers is a beautiful face and a soft kiss that he can't be sure he didn't hallucinate. Then Tolomeo turns up naked at Leigh’s apartment. Tolly comes from a race of killers - merfolk who drown and torment humans for fun. He alone is different, and when he sees a human in trouble, instead of letting him perish, Tolly offers a kiss, granting Leigh the ability to breathe underwater, and himself the ability to walk on land. At least until the next full moon. The ancient laws state that if Tolly is given a vow of love by the one he kissed, he will be able to keep his legs. If not, he will be put to death when he returns to the water. But love is not something Leigh offers easily, and Tolly has a secret of his own. THIS SECOND EDITION INCLUDES A NEW COVER AND RE-FORMATTED INTERIOR BUT NO SIGNIFICANT CONTENT CHANGES FROM THE ORIGINAL.
