CLAIMED BY THE EXILES SEA WARRIOR

The Song Below is a dark romantic ocean-fantasy where survival becomes identity, and identity becomes destiny. Isla is living the perfect life—or the version curated for her—until her fiancé Caleb shoves her off their yacht during a glittering engagement party and leaves her for dead. As she sinks into the black, silent deep, something ancient rises to meet her. A being older than myth. A creature the ocean itself fears. Kaelen. He stops her fall, breaks every law of the deep, and gives her the forbidden Breath of Tide—binding her lungs, her pulse, and her fate to the sea… and to him. Isla wakes in a cavern where breathing water is her new reality and where predators, not people, rule. She must learn to survive on raw instinct, raw hunger, raw fear—and under the watchful, inhuman eyes of the creature who saved her. As Isla adapts, her humanity begins to blur. Her body changes. Her senses sharpen. The ocean pulls at her with a voice she can almost understand… and Kaelen watches every moment of her becoming. Not gently. Not kindly. But with a dark, unspoken claim she cannot escape. While Isla fights to reclaim herself, Caleb believes he succeeded. He has no idea that the woman he tried to erase is alive in a realm deeper and more merciless than he could imagine—and she is coming back. Not as a victim. Not as a bride. But as something reborn from the sea. A creature with a pulse that beats to the ocean’s rhythm… and a love story that was never meant for the surface.
