Marrine Child showed up on the steps of a tiny church, wrapped in blankets and left out in a raging storm. The nuns and Father Thompson took her in, raising her in the quiet seaside town of Port Haven. On the surface, she seemed like any other orphan—just a bit out of place, maybe. But there was more to Marrine. Her father was the King of the Deep, a powerful sea ruler set on taking her back, no matter the cost. She grew up under the watchful eyes of the church, soaking in the faith and warmth of her caretakers.

Marrine stood at a crossroads: give in to her marine blood and lose Zeke, or turn her back on everything she was and risk it all. Just when hope seemed gone, an angel appeared with the impossible—way forward, if Marrine’s faith and Zeke’s love could withstand the final test. It turns into a sweeping story about belief, sacrifice, and a love that even death can’t destroy.
