I broke the Fourth Law of Kanaloa. I made physical contact with a human.
On the eve of war, jazz singer Maris is running from her past when she finds refuge on a quiet island near Pearl Harbor. But paradise shatters when Japanese planes darken the sky and devastation rains down.
As chaos erupts, a mysterious figure rises from the sea to save her.
Kai is a merman prince, bound by the ancient laws of Kanaloa, the powerful Polynesian god of the ocean. The Fourth Law is absolute: no physical contact with humans.
Kai breaks it anyway.
For his defiance, he is imprisoned beneath the sea.
Maris survives the attack—but her injuries change the course of her life. Physically scarred from burns across her body, she drifts from island dreams to the streets of Boston, where she sings on street corners and clings to memories of the ocean prince who once saved her. Though years pass, she continues to dream of Kai… and of a love that feels more real than her waking world.
When Kai is finally released and rises to claim his throne, he refuses to forget the human woman he sacrificed everything for—having connected with her through the dream state for years and falling in love. Determined to find her, he journeys into her world once more.
The Fourth Law of Kanaloa is a modern fairy tale of forbidden love, sacrifice, and redemption—where mythology meets history, and one act of compassion changes two worlds forever.
