After drowning in her own world, Nerine wakes inside a fantasy novel as a silver-tailed siren destined to die—and drive three monsters mad with grief. There is Kael, the savage abyssal merman who hunts her across the sea. Morcant, the tentacled witch who locks her inside a house with no escape. And Aurelius, the cursed prince whose gentle smile hides a second, murderous soul. All three remember the woman who once wore Nerine’s face. All three believe she belongs to them. But Nerine refuses to become their dead lover, their captive, or another sacrifice to the story. If these monsters want her, they must learn the difference between possession and devotion—because this time, the doomed siren intends to survive. One siren. Three obsessed monsters. And a tragic ending she refuses to obey.
