Lexi is cursed with a dark secret. Each day she goes to school like a normal teenager, and each night she must swim, or the pain will be unbearable. She is a siren - a deadly mermaid destined to lure men to their watery deaths. After a terrible tragedy, Lexi shut herself off from the world, vowing to protect the ones she loves. But she soon finds herself caught between a new boy at school who may have the power to melt her icy exterior, and a handsome water spirit who says he can break Lexi's curse if she gives up everything else. Lexi is faced with the hardest decision she's ever had to make: the life she's always longed for - or the love she can't live without?
Mermaid fiction! I've yet to read any and this one sounds really, really cool. Really intense. Maybe I just like deadly sirens and the fact that she's forced into being one. Can't wait to read this...
YES!!! I'm so excited for this one too:) I haven't read too many books that deal with sirens/mermaids so I can't wait to dive (ha! I amuse myself) into this one:)
ReplyDelete@Jenny: I've seen a few mermaid PNR's out there, but I want to read those that have a great hook (no pun intended, lol) or have some hype to back them up. This one sounds saucy to me...
ReplyDeleteI'm really excited for this. I haven't read Hubbard's books but I've heard so many great things about her.
ReplyDelete@Alison: That's great! Good to know this is a promising novel.
