Ariel doesn't believe in herself or her powers anymore, and she forgot everything about getting in love. She doesn't nurture any illusions that she will meet Prince Charming one day. She just goes through the motions, full of resentments, unfulfilled, and almost defeated.

She wouldn't have looked twice at Max on a regular day. On the few occasions they have been thrown together, she barely tolerated his presence. However, Max turns out to be the only one who can help her in her hour of need.

Will Ariel see him in a new light? Will Max be the one to lift the curse haunting her from birth?
