Erica Peck has been terrified of the ocean and all that's in it
since she was a child, a small problem seeing as how she runs her
family's marina. On top of this paralyzing fear, Erica is unlucky
in love. Her ex-fiancé forces her to get into the ocean at gun
point to find his missing diamonds. When she doesn't move fast
enough she is shot and left for dead.
Reel Tritone (second son of the ruler of the sea and the one in his
family without a tail) comes to the rescue just as Erica is about
to be eaten by a shark. Even though it's forbidden for Mers to have
any contact with the humans, but there's something about Erica that
makes Reel break every rule. He saves her by giving her the ability
to breathe underwater. Something she might be grateful for if she
wasn't for the fact that she is told that if she ever has contact
with her world again then her life and Reel's life would be ended.
This story was filled with a lot of fun characters and some witty
dialogue. I have the other 2 books in the series and look forward
to reading them. Mostly because I want to see what Reel's brother
Rod is like.
If you are looking for a light fantasy romance filled with
beautiful imagery, then this is the book for you.
