Descripción editorial
He’s here to save the sea turtles. She’s the local mermaid with a flair for chaos.
Together, they’re about to make waves—thanks to one wayward dog and a beach full of second chances.
Welcome to Turtle Beach, where sun-kissed days and quirky neighbors set the stage for a heartwarming enemies-to-lovers romance.
Molly Prince never imagined her job as the aquarium’s resident mermaid—or her unruly rescue dog—would land her in a standoff with a grumpy marine biologist. But Max Miller has a mission to protect sea turtles, and Molly’s unpredictable pup just disrupted his research.
But when the dog’s nose turns out to be the unexpected key to saving endangered nests and reviving the struggling aquarium, Max and Molly will have to navigate their clashing personalities…and undeniable attraction.
USA Today bestselling author Teri Wilson’s signature blend of humor, heart, and happily-ever-afters shines in this summery escape perfect for fans of Jenny Hale, Kate Angell, and Hallmark Channel romance. If you’re looking for joy, redemption, and a rescue dog with more personality than most people, you’ll find yourself utterly charmed.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Wilson (A Spot of Trouble) kicks off this delightful rom-com with workaholic marine biologist Max Miller reluctantly returning to his seaside North Carolina hometown after being passed over for a promotion at the National Aquarium. He's determined to help save his uncle's failing Turtle Beach Aquarium and Sea Turtle Hospital—and his first move is to cut costs by firing the aquarium's resident mermaid, Molly Prince, even after she saves him from drowning at the beach. Molly's devastated. She's always loved posing with aquarium goers in her mermaid costume (and her Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Ursula, looks quite fetching in a lobster costume as well). The town rallies around her, showing their support through mermaid-themed cupcakes, among other things. The more Max learns about her, the more he too joins her list of fans, which soon leads to love. But will the aquarium's financial struggles and interfering parents capsize their budding relationship? The journey to the answer is witty, smart, and tremendously fun to read. Wilson's charming supporting characters (especially Turtle Beach's animal-loving, matchmaking senior citizen crew) bolster the feeling of small-town charm—and Ursula steals every scene she's in. This is a can't fail beach pick.
