closer for Jesso-Riley Development firm to buy land on
Bayberry Island for a Casino and resort with a Marina and
golf course. Mona Flynn and family are refusing to destroy
their island while most of the residents are slowly
becoming broke and want to sell. Ash arrives in his boat,
the Provenance, under the pretense of an engine breakdown
to infiltrate the residents, especially Monas daughter,
Rowan, who could be the weak link in gaining the approval
for the purchase.

the "man grab" to kiss the hand of the statue to find his
everlasting true love, however reluctantly. Ash didn't
expect Rowan to be a gorgeous and truly caring individual.

But after her investor fiancé lost what was left of her family’s fortune, Rowan reluctantly agreed to run the Safe Haven Bed-and-Breakfast, determined never again to fall for the ridiculous fantasy of the mermaid matchmaker.

But when a handsome stranger arrives at the B and B the night before the annual Mermaid Festival, Rowan’s life takes a turn for the interesting. Could it be the divine hand of the town’s patroness? Or is Rowan being set up for another disappointment?
