Princess Kenna has one dream: adventure on the ocean to find out if mermaids are real. But her parents won’t let her anywhere near the water, AND for the good of her kingdom, she has to get married, dooming her to a boring life on land. To make matters worse, suitors from around her kingdom have been sent to the castle so she can choose one of them as her husband, but she has no desire to marry someone who only wants to be king.
There is one man, though, who seems like an attractive option, but he mysteriously disappears before she can choose him. She chases after him on a boat, and wouldn’t you know it, they end up getting shipwrecked on an island together. There, Kenna learns about herself and about a truth long hidden, and tries to figure out how she can do her duty to her people while also being true to her own desires.
