Fulfill a deathbed vow by shielding a clueless shipping heir for five years.
Centuries after saving shipping magnate Marius Sterling, sea goddess Thetis accepts his dying request to guard grandson Julian. She binds herself to him in marriage, concealing her dominion over oceans. For five years Julian dismisses her as a decorative spouse, attributing every calm passage and locked-in alliance to his own instincts and his returned ex-fiancée Vivian. Unseen, Thetis stills hurricanes, rewrites currents, and neutralizes rogue waves that would have bankrupted the Sterling line. When the vow expires, she signs the divorce papers and reclaims her true form. At the Thalassa Circle gathering, the world's shipping elite kneel before the tide sovereign, and Julian finally recognizes the deity he prayed to daily was the woman he underestimated.
