Tempi Draven, a feisty air elemental witch, and Ronin Seawald, an irritatingly charming merman, are forced to co-chair Moonlight Bay’s annual treasure hunt.
Tempi has spent three years treating Ronin as her biggest rival and keeping him at arm’s length, while he has spent those same years trying to win a chance with the stubborn witch.
Once they have to work together, the line between wanting to strangle him and wanting to kiss him grows dangerously thin.
A staged search for the legendary Crimson Heart stops feeling harmless when clues suggest the priceless ruby may actually exist.
Moonlight Bay friends join the chase, Princess Muffin Top offers plenty of unwanted commentary, and fake clues turn real on a trail from forgotten graves to hidden coastal caves.
Amid a centuries-old love story, pirate treasure, and the merman she swore she could not stand, Tempi begins to suspect the rarest find in Moonlight Bay has been beside her all along.
