A Mermaid in the Desert

The extraordinary story of a girl who wants to fall in love and keep falling in love.

A surprising intimacy-building tool helps Amanda set aside her doubts about relationships and embark on a journey of curiosity and romantic bliss. As she wades through the dating scene in an unusual new café, she wrestles with the nature of love, desire, and total infatuation. Meanwhile, an elite group of pickup artists challenges their champion to seduce her. Full of cinematic imagery, charm, wit, and his trademark lush sentences, Jonathan Ashworth gives us a story of romance, friendship, and heartbreak that is vital, stirring, and utterly original.
