Bound by Water

She can steal anything. Even his heart…


Atreides

I’m the last merman shifter alive.

I’m also a famous painter, richer than Croesus, and not in a hurry to find a suitable mate. Someday, I’ll secure my heritage. For now, my life is perfect as it is.

And did I mention that in my spare time I help the police recover stolen art? Bringing to justice those thieves gives me a special pleasure, and I look forward to my next mission.

Ariel

I’m an art thief and exceedingly good at what I do but promised never to steal again. And if my father hadn’t accumulated huge debts with the wrong crowd, I would’ve kept my word.

So here I am at night, outside the medieval castle I intend to rob when this absolute hunk of a man emerges from the sea. And what do you know, he walks up to me and kisses me.

It’s not a regular kiss either, but the stuff of legend. I kid you not. I’m so shaken, I almost forget about the heist.

Too bad there’s a werewolf biker gang after me, and I have no time for romance…
