Unrequited love is hard enough when you''re a normal teenage girl, but for mermaid Lily Sanderson, there''s no such thing as a simple crush.
Lily has a secret, and it''s not her huge crush on gorgeous swimming god Brody Bennett, who makes her heart beat flipper-fast. Lily''s mermaid identity is a secret that can''t get out, since she''s not just any mermaid--she''s a Thalassinian princess.
When she discovered three years ago that her mother was actually a human, Lily finally realized why she didn''t feel quite at home in Thalassinia, and she''s been going to Seaview High ever since.
Living on land has its problems--like her obnoxious biker-boy neighbor, Quince Fletcher--but it has that one major perk: Brody. The problem is, mermaids aren''t really the casual dating type--when they bond, it''s for life.
When Lily''s attempt to win Brody''s love leads to a case of mistaken identity, she finds out, quick as a tailfin flick, that happily ever after never sails quite as smoothly as you planned.
