South Florida diver Briana Devon, co-owner of Two Mermaids

when she surfaces from the Gulf waters to find both her
twin sister, Daria, and their boat gone. Bree knows Daria
would never leave her stranded in the ocean, especially
with a horrific storm bearing down on them. With no other
recourse, Bree fiercely swims with the rough waves to the
nearest land she can see, until a lightning strike throws
her through the water and she blacks out.
Cole DeRoca, owner of Gulf Stream Yacht Interiors, is
fighting to get his sailboat secured on an outer island

able to revive Bree enough to get them both onboard his
sloop. Now, it will take all of his strength and willpower
to brave the storm again and find the medical help she
needs.
The aftermath of sharing this traumatic experience creates
a strong bond Cole and Bree don't fully understand, and
will not deny. Bree feels she can trust Cole with anything,
and she'll need his strength and support when she discovers
her twin's fate. As Bree sets out to investigate exactly
what happened to Daria, she becomes ever more certain it
was not an accident and that foul play was involved. Bree
also learns her twin was keeping secrets -- but was that
enough reason for someone to kill her?
Ms. Harper deftly takes readers are a suspenseful and
harrowing underwater adventure that will have you holding
your breath in anticipation of the outcome.
