Summary
In Maggie’s mind, merfolk had always been stories, but she knew that they were stories that fishermen took seriously. On her first fishing boat, last year, a crewman had come yelling that he’d seen one, and the captain had taken the news to be deadly serious: they had strapped down everything they could and brought all hands on deck that night, bracing for a storm.
Maggie had thought it to be excessive. The weather radar wasn’t showing anything. There were no NOAA warnings. But here was the captain, making them suit up in life jackets with emergency ties, and sure enough, the storm that hit them was the worst that Maggie had ever experienced as a sailor, both in her two years on fishing boats and four years in the Coast Guard.
And now Maggie had seen a mermaid, too.
A contemporary fantasy story in which Alex is a mermaid, Maggie works on a fishing boat, and together they save a little bit of the world.

Summary
Alex’s tally did not count every day since Maggie and Kara’s departure. They left often, after all: it was their role to bring materials here, to the Deo Haven, from the mainland, and to deliver supplies produced here on the Haven to the crumbling mainland cities that needed them.
Alex only began the tally when it became clear that their absence was extending beyond the usual. Normally, they’d be gone five days, seven. Fourteen, twenty, if something went wrong. But boats came and went, carrying runners and builders and laborers and tacticians of all kinds, and none of them brought Maggie back to her. People would leave, and return, and leave, and return again, mission after mission, and none of them came with Kara.
Sanvers is the primary ship here. Supercorp is secondary but significant.

Summary
"Where’re you headed next?" Maggie asks.
"Omaha for a drop-off," the girl says, "then Des Moines for a pickup. Not sure where after that, just hoping to stay on the road for awhile." She hands over a visa, and Maggie takes it to the till just a couple of feet away.
Maggie cocks an eyebrow while she runs the card. "Where's home?"
"National City. Well, the suburbs."
Maggie whistles. "Long haul indeed."
The girl shrugs. "I didn't take this job because I wanted to be home."

Summary
Was it only three months ago that the story had come out in Confidential magazine? It felt like so much more time had passed. The headline was burned into Alex’s memory: ALEXIS D’ANVERS AND MAGGIE SAWYER: BOSOM BUDDIES OR BEDROOM BUDDIES?
They met in 1952, they fell in love in 1953, they fell apart in 1954.
Alex and Maggie are movie stars in the waning days of Hollywood's golden age. Against the backdrop of the House Un-American Activities Committee's anti-communist witch-hunts, the Hollywood blacklist, the rise of Technicolor cinema, the virulent early days of celebrity tabloids, and a (literally) underground gay bar, this is a story of how they find each other again in 1955.
