πŸ“˜ A Little Mermaid
 by Aya Ling

All Clio wants is to make her crushβ€”a fellow merman princeβ€”notice her. She isn’t interested in the people on land, much less a certain Prince Lukas, who was stupid enough to fall off a ship on his birthday. But when a bumbling fairy godfather misunderstands her, Clio finds herself in the worst situation imaginableβ€”stranded on land with her tail and voice gone. And her troubles are just beginning. Not only must Clio learn how to behave like a human, but she also needs to discover the identity of a mysterious assassin, all while guarding herself against flirtatious advances from Lukas, the very person she wants to avoid.
