FINNED SOBER

A Dark Mermaid Romance of Addiction and Survival

Deep in the shadow of moss-draped cypress trees and slow, black bayous, the swamp offers solitude—but it also keeps its secrets. By day, it feels like refuge. By night, it feels like something else entirely.

For Manny, the swamp isn’t just a refuge—it’s a last chance.

Raised in a small town on its edge, Manny returns to the rugged houseboat his father built when he was a boy. Crafted from cypress wood and worn by time, it’s a place of memories, solitude, and hard truths. He plans to spend his days fishing, fixing what he can, and facing the battle he’s been running from.

Because this time, Manny hasn’t come to escape.
He’s come to get sober—or die trying.

What he doesn’t expect is that salvation may come from the depths of the very waters he’s always known.
