Books like Mermaid's touch by Patti Beckman


Amy Peterson is a mermaid whose performances in the vibrant Aquarena have made her a local icon. Yet when she surfaces, the weight of her family's financial burdens hangs over her. Amy's charming but chaotic brothers only add to the pressure. Scott Creighton, the charismatic executive of Creighton Housing Development, sees an opportunity in the Peterson property. He offers a marriage merger, hoping to secure the land, but his pursuit also forces Amy to confront her feelings and whether love can soften his cold business heart. In this tale of romance and financial intrigue, Amy must decide if a mermaid’s touch can win over a determined tycoon and if love can outshine the odds of debt and family obligations.
