Summary
A different way to experience the Brave the Waters series. Instead of reading each story separately, chapters and scenes from different perspectives are braided together to create a continuous, chronological timeline.
Begin at the beginning with the ancient myth of the Ocean, then follow Alix and Chloe through the 1800s into the new century. Marinette's story, the only one told in first person, begins in the early 1920s and closely intertwines with those of Juleka, Rose, and, for a short time, Kagami. We speed through the decades of the 1900s and finally arrive in 2001, where Adrien emerges to cast light on Marinette's dark life. They begin an impossible, forbidden love affair that can only end in tragedy.
Come join the chaos as we explore an AU full of supernatural creatures, found family, oodles of angst, and lots and lots of pining. The series motto is No Character Left Behind. I promise the worldbuilding isn't hard to understand. This isn't the kind of fantasy story that will give you a headache - except maybe from crying, if my readers are to be believed.
Happy endings for all! Kind of. Mostly.
Based on the 2009 self-published version of Kiera Cass's The Siren.

Summary
Chloe's side story, part of the "Brave the Waters" universe.
It's utterly ridiculous that everyone has been so focused on stupid Marinette and her stupid boyfriend. You should pay attention to Chloe! She's doing important and interesting things, and she's way smarter than all the other sirens. If you don't read about her magnificent life, you're a total loser.
(Or: Chloe manages to have a redemption arc while still remaining self-centered, rude, and delusional. Also she's really into fashion? Like, obsessively.)
