Author Lauren A.R. Masterson invites readers into a beautifully imagined underwater world in her captivating novel Love of the Sea, a romantic fantasy that flips the classic mermaid tale on its head.
Rather than dreaming of life on land, Princess Asrai has her sights set on bringing a human into her ocean realm. After years in hiding, the rightful heir to the throne devises a daring plan to save her kingdom and her people—by seeking out the perfect prince to become her partner and restore balance beneath the waves. Her target? The dashing and kind-hearted Prince Cormack, who unwittingly becomes part of a destiny far greater than he imagined.
What follows is a sweeping journey of self-discovery, magic, and love that transcends the boundary between land and sea. With vibrant world-building, richly drawn underwater kingdoms, and a heroine who is as brave as she is determined, Love of the Sea delivers everything readers could want from a fantasy romance—and more.
Masterson weaves a narrative filled with wonder, adventure, and just the right touch of royalty and rebellion. Whether you’re a fan of fairytales, romantic fantasy, or mermaid lore with a twist, this story is sure to reel you in.
Dive in and experience the magic for yourself—Love of the Sea is available now on Amazon.
