Princess Lira is siren royalty, and the most lethal of them all. With the hearts of seventeen princes in her collection, she is revered and feared across the sea - until she kills the wrong person, a member of her own family. As punishment, the Sea Queen transforms her daughter into the one thing sirens despise most: a human. Robbed of her song and her power, Lira has until the winter solstice to deliver the heart of a special prince to the Sea Queen, or she will remain human forever. Prince Elian is a well-loved pirate prince who is more interested in hunting sirens than sitting on a throne.

Their journey takes them from the vibrant kingdom of Eidyllio to the tumultuous court of Midas, and along the way Lira and Elian must decide who they can truly trust - and whether the love slowly growing between them is worth losing absolutely everything for..
