Following the morning scuba dive...
A pod of wild dolphins cavorts around the boat and all fourteen divers eagerly re-enter the water for a wild-animal experience. One woman soon realizes she has not removed her weight belt and fights to stay afloat, reluctant to send it to the bottom of the sea. She struggles to return to the boat ladder. A last, fateful lunge places her directly beneath it, one arm upraised. The boat rises on a lazy swell and drops sharply into the trough, the lowest rung snapping her forearm, the stern striking her head. Her body is driven deep below the surface--unconscious.
She finds herself deep underwater...
Sometime later, her eyes fly open and she automatically kicks and fights to reach a surface that is now hopelessly distant. Suddenly, she realizes she is breathing comfortably and stops to consider the situation. Once again her heart beats a wild rhythm when she spots a shadow in the distance, drawing closer, and finds herself face-to-face with a beautiful mermaid. As they scrutinize each other, a second, much younger mermaid joins them.
Serena lives with the mermaids...
The two help the injured diver to a huge cavern inhabited by the Sirene--a society of mermaids, mermen, and their merkids. She is unable to recall her name and the mermaids call her Serena, inviting her to stay until her injuries heal. She falls in love with the kind and handsome Sirene doctor but a rival for his affections threatens her happiness and, indeed, her very life. Serena finds that mermaids, although graceful and beautiful, can be extremely ruthless. Serena and Nathan leave the cave and strike out on their own--a dangerous endeavor since there is safety in numbers and much risk for only two.
