About the Book

The price of a mermaid’s freedom is a deal that will risk her heart.

As the daughter of two worlds, Nia has always been called to return to the sea. After leaving behind her mother’s kingdom to live underwater in the city of merfolk, she never expected to return to the surface.

At least, not until she finds herself washed ashore and stranded with a pair of legs instead of a tail, and a gorgeous human man who’s determined to help. Kyan Emrik offers her food and shelter, but more importantly, he has an unexpected solution to Nia’s problem: his mother, the same sea witch who tore Nia’s family apart. If she ever wants to return to the sea, her only option is to repeat history and make a bargain with the witch.

Nia has three weeks to kill a mermaid of royal blood and break the curse that took her tail, or she’ll be stuck on land forever. And to make things worse, she’s stuck with Kyan until she fulfills her end of the bargain. He’s a distraction she can’t afford, and a temptation she can’t resist. Kyan’s touch sets Nia aflame with longing for something more than the sea, and he makes her question everything she thought she knew about the dark history their families share.

But in such treacherous waters, trust is a dangerous gamble, and even love comes at a price.

Dive into Heir of the Tide, a spicy standalone reimagining of the Little Mermaid with an enemies-to-lovers twist, perfect for fans of Elise Kova and Sarah J. Maas. The explicit content of the Villainous Heirs series is suitable for readers 18+.
