Sealah Loveridge was supposed to be training to be the perfect princess and yet somehow, what should have been the best, most-validating weekend of her life ended up making her look like a train wreck and now, she's in damage control mode. Not only has she angered her parents, the residents of Seaview, her peers and the boy that was supposed to be her perfect match, but now she's somehow managed to get herself tangled up with two human boys that are nothing but trouble- the beautiful Ferris Wheel operator who stole her kisses and her heart before trying to kill her after he found out what she truly was, and the other a trouble-making street racer who's harder to shake than the withdrawals even though he has no idea what she is and what he's in for if he doesn't back off. Sealah needs to extricate both of them from her life in order to protect her people in addition to solving a murder, running a concession stand, trying to make the two new girls in town feel at home and trying to smooth over the trouble that Mariah Grey has dredged up in order to make Sealah look bad to everybody that she cares for, but when Sealah starts to suspect that all of her problems are connected somehow, she starts to understand that there is a tidal wave of drama flying her way and that if she doesn't find a way to solve all of the problems fast, it's going to crash headfirst into their perfect mermaid community and obliterate it completely. That is if her over-worked, under-appreciated inner Sea Monster doesn't lose her temper, and obliterate them all herself!
