MERMAIDS! Yes, we know they are fictional, or are they? While on vacation, Washington D.C. publicist, Caroline Woodard will discover the magic of Hatteras Island, North Carolina. Crossing the threshold of her family's rustic oceanfront cottage brings with it generations of tradition, love, and mystery dating back to 1939 when the mermaid sisterhood began. After an early-season hurricane brushed the coast, three sisters ventured out for shells. What they find fills them with mystery and excitement. In celebration of this find, it is passed down through generations of women who vacation at the Beach Heart Cottage. A sisterhood.
It's the current day, and who says dressing up as a mermaid and dancing around a bonfire under the full-blood moon is for the young at heart? Certainly not these awesome women. When it is 35-year-old Caroline's turn to be crowned as the newest mermaid of the sisterhood, she finds her heart opened to a new beginning. Caroline's client, Senator Colton Jameson, is not only the front runner in the upcoming presidential election, but they also had a past. That presidential candidate is her former lover, and he wants her by his side as the First Lady.
Her heart will take her on a journey much like a rogue wave when she bumps into alluring Dillan next door. Only the magic whispers in the balmy breezes of Hatteras Island can help her decide where her heart should beat.
