Adrianne, fierce-willed and courageous, is determined to protect her sister from the mermaid, and her family from starvation. However, the mermaid continues to haunt Adrianne in her dreams and with her song.

Sounds like a fun book. Make you wonder what the mermaid is up to.
Isn't that the most amazing cover?! I think it's absolutely breathtaking. The story inside is wonderful too. The writing is clear and descriptive. You feel like you're there experiencing life right along with Adrianne. Your heart breaks for her, but you can't help but be inspired by her strength and courage.
Beautiful writing. A strong girl with a tragic past and an uncertain future, but the guts and strength to rise above it. A completely unique and imaginative mermaid world. Sweet romance. I LOVED this book. How could you not?
