by Devyn Quinn is the perfect read. She gives up something different with mermaids. Between desire and love there are some things that can’t stay buried, even in the deep of the ocean.Tessa the oldest of three mermaid sisters, is feisty. I loved her. She was so full of life, and was guarded because of the pain in her past. I loved that she lived on an island with a lighthouse, it adds to her being a mermaid.
As a woman with a secret, lighthouse keeper Tessa Lonike savors her solitude on the island of Little Mer, off the coast of Maine. During a violent storm, Tessa spots a man thrashing in the ice cold waters and dives in to save him, using her ability as a mermaid to easily pull him to shore.
When Kenneth Randall awakens on the beach he is alone, left with the haunting memory of his beautiful, flame-haired savior. But a year later, when Kenneth meets her again, he’s determined not to let Tessa slip away. Just as the desire between them begins to burn, Tessa’s archaeologist ex-lover comes back to town with a tantalizing clue to her murky heritage.
The trio travel to the Mediterranean in search of answers, and when Tessa inadvertently opens an underwater portal they find a lost mermaid city. But in the deep, not everything is as it seems, and Tessa must decide if she wants to take her place as the royal heir, or follow the call of her heart…
Kenneth, what can I say about him. He had a rough past, but he was a great character. He knew he loved Tessa, and went after it. He didn't let Tessa trying to push him away or her moods stop him from going after what he wanted. Ken was always able to lighten the mood, and was a perfect match to feisty Tessa.
As for the other characters in Siren's Call
... I didn't care for Jake, he just rubbed me the wrong way. First he skipped out on Tessa before their wedding, and then he choose his career over Tessa and Ken's life. He was ruthless and selfish, and deserved what he got in the end. However the sisters Gwen and Addison were great additions. I really loved Addison and look forward to her having her own story. Overall I loved Siren's Call
. I am always iffy on mermaid books, but Devyn does a wonderful job at bringing the story alive. She also has a way of keeping you on your toes, wondering what will happen next. I loved all the twists and turns in Siren's Call, it made for an amazing read. My favorite line of Siren's Call was... 'Oh Terrific. A mermaid with a learner's permit.' Siren's Call
is a wonderful read, and one that will leave you wanting Siren's Surrender
. Thankfully you won't have long to wait, Siren's Surrender comes out February 1st, review coming soon.
