From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff, Book Two of the Mermen Trilogy He never wanted this. He only wanted her. EVERYTHING ABOUT THE EVIL ISLAND OF EL CORAZON IS WRONG. The men are ruthless warriors who call themselves mermen but don't have any fish parts, the island isn't exactly an island, and the women...well, let's just say their story isn't pretty. More like a nightmare. Which is exactly why billionaire Roen Doran will do anything to protect the woman he can't live without from that violent place. Including becoming the island's leader and giving her up forever.
