    Summary

    “After years of traveling all over the world, seeing incredible things and meeting fascinating people, Colin Bridgerton took everyone by surprise when he said he was coming home and wanted to pursue teaching.

    He reached out to Penelope first, asking for advice and a bit of help with the certification process. Penelope was glad to help him; her heart was warmed by Colin’s newfound passion for education, and slowly but surely, Colin was ready to apply for teaching positions. It wasn’t until he had secured a spot at Penelope’s school that she began to grow nervous.”

    Childhood friends Colin and Penelope teach in classrooms across the hall from one another. Penelope, in her fourth year of teaching English, shows first-year-teacher Colin the ropes of their now shared profession. As they spend more time together throughout the term, the pair come to see one another in a new light, and the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur.

    Summary

    Captain Colin Bridgerton is one of the best. His fame and fortune come from his ability to sail through a treacherous part of the Bay of Biscay unscathed multiple times, much to the confusion of his crew and to the benefit of the trading company he works for.

    Penelope is trying her best to keep her best friend (and secret love) safe from her human-hating pod of mermaids, but it's becoming more difficult under her mother's pressure to marry and increasingly watchful eye.

    They have to work to be together and fight to stay together through storms, magic, arguments, and one very, very tenacious mother.
