    Summary

    **COMPLETE **
    Amani is a chronic overachiever who’s spent her life checking off every box that society (and her family) said she should. She continues the cycle when she moves to Coral Island and completes every task asked of her in spite of the growing loneliness that she feels.

    Her checklist lifestyle is upended when she has her first encounter with the Merfolk Kingdom’s Captain of the Royal Guard while exploring the waters surrounding the island. As she gradually gets closer to him, something awakens in her that she doesn’t know how to tame, or if she even wants to.

    It isn’t long before she’s thrust in the middle of a decade-long conflict, as a result, all while attempting to manage her body’s new needs and balance the weight of the hearts she’s attracted and the attention she’s garnered, for better or worse.

    —————————————-
    This started off as a simple one-off that grew into a 15-chapter deep dive into this game, its mechanics, and some of its characters. The story is complete, but I’ll be uploading a couple chapters every few days while I edit the later chapters.

    Summary

    This work is complete!

    Semeru and Viv's idyllic marriage is broken apart by strange magical forces. War is looming between the Kingdom of Merikiha and the mysterious Kingdom of Altai, and the shark merfolk and his wife must fight against their greatest foe: each other.
    Princess Miranjani is the only one who can negotiate the peace.

    This is an action-adventure fantasy story featuring magic, diplomacy, spies, mind control, and Semeru's truly, truly terrible ex-girlfriend.

    And yes, there's some spice and romance too.

    I hope you enjoy!

    Summary

    "You don’t have to leave tonight," Viv said. Stay here with me. Because I need you to personally ensure my safety.”
    “It would be my pleasure,” Semeru replied. His voice was low and velvet. “In so many ways.”
    “You’re quite seductive when you want to be, Captain,” she smiled, lightly touching the inside of his wrist.

    What would you do if you fell in love with a man from another species? Coral Island farmer Viv is discovering what it's like to build a relationship with Semeru. Some things are the same — figuring out how their lives fit together, trying to make a long-distance relationship succeed around work and obligations, that beautiful new relationship energy — and some things are different. Very, very different.

    In this story, Semeru and Viv discover a terrible secret, fight an evil corporation, build a relationship together, and change the world. There's some angst, some conflict, some whump, some slice-of-life, some spice, some merfolk lore, and some straight up romance.

    Summary

    "Because," Scott continued, his voice all but a saccharine murmur, "If you had showed up to meet me looking like this, I'd..."
    He trailed off. His hand reached forward to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, but it lingered against her cheek. Her breath caught in her throat at the graze of his thumb against her face, and she dared to peer up at him. Her eyes flickered between his, desperately trying to gauge just how much of this was only him teasing her yet again—all while a smug grin crept across his face.
    "Well, I'd have to ask for your forgiveness."
    "Forgiveness?" She breathed, unable to stop her eyes from dropping to his lips, "For what?"
    "For this."

    It had been a full year since Rosette fled her old life and started anew on Coral Island. Newfound freedom, good friends, and a touch of magic was more than she could've ever hoped for; she was content with that. That is, until the antics of some mischievous giants got her the attention of some hot singles in her area. After what she'd endured before coming to the island, she figured that love was never going to be in the cards for her... but maybe having some fun in the meantime couldn't hurt.
