Mermaid Magic (FANTASY)

In the secluded seaside village of Lysmoor, the ocean is a lifeline and a mystery. The villagers whisper of mermaids who guard the waters, their songs said to lure sailors to their doom. For sixteen-year-old Kaelin, the legends are just stories meant to keep children from straying too far into the waves. But when an unexpected storm sweeps her into the depths, Kaelin discovers the truth is far more magical and dangerous than she ever imagined.

Saved by a mermaid named Arlia, Kaelin awakens in the glittering underwater city of Lumeris. Here, magic pulses in the coral walls, and mermaids wield elemental powers that shape the tides. But all is not as serene as it seems. Lumeris is on the brink of collapse, its magic fading due to a centuries-old curse that ties the fate of the mermaids to the world above.

As Kaelin learns of her own connection to the ocean's magic, she's faced with an impossible choice: help Arlia break the curse and risk exposing Lumeris to the surface world or let the city, and its people, fade into nothingness.

To save the mermaids and her own life, Kaelin must navigate dangerous currents both literal and political unravel ancient secrets, and embrace powers she never knew she possessed. But with enemies lurking in the shadows and time running out, will Kaelin be able to protect the world she's grown to love?

Mermaid Magic is a spellbinding tale of courage, sacrifice, and the bond between worlds, where the ocean hides wonders-and dangers-beyond imagination.
