Liquid Courage

A sea witch determined to rescue her beloved ocean creatures meets a hot dude on a rogue alien spaceship. There’s a lot he’s not telling her…

Morgan, a powerful sea witch devoted to protecting and healing all ocean creatures, defends them from any kind of exploitation. Even when the latest threat turns out to be an alien spacecraft sucking up everything it can get its tubes on. No way are she and her wily octopus friend Floog going to let them get away with it.

Tony, who isn’t exactly who he seems, hates his job helping aliens rob planets of their biological treasures, but he’s just as much a prisoner as the stolen lifeforms in the collection tanks. The arrival of a gorgeous aquatic human and her pet octopus could be the chance he needs to change his luck. He’ll have to shuffle a few truths to get her on his side.

Morgan’s trust in the smokin’ hot surfer dude shatters when she uncovers his web of lies. Now she’s trapped in a tank and isn’t speaking to him. The alien ship’s operators are on a deadline, which means Tony only has one chance to redeem himself and earn Morgan’s love.

Can Morgan, Tony, and Floog pull off the impossible escape? And can she leave sexy Tony behind to return to her beloved oceans?
