This summer, Mika Audrey is determined to fall in love for the first time. With her sister acting as her fairy-godmother, giving her a glow-up and an invite to the hottest parties on the beach, Mika believes that this summer will be the first time she fills her diary with adventures. She has no idea how many adventures she's about to have. After falling overboard at her first yacht party and coming into contact with a sea-monster, Mika discovers she is able to transform into a mermaid and harness an ancient power long-forgotten. She ventures into the Undersea, a world of whimsy and magic as she meets several friends and learns more about the secret blue world beneath her own. The harmony of the Undersea is fragile, however, and threatened by a web of political intrigue that Mika just might be the key to solving.
