This story was beautiful! I was immediately intrigued by the “dolphin” at the beginning of the story and the mysterious family Kate met on the beach. Character development was wonderful, considering Kate and Gabe were 6 years old at the beginning of the book and adults at its conclusion. Errin’s writing style is GORGEOUS, and the very last page made me cry. If you love mermaids, sirens, and mermen, GO BUY THIS BOOK! – Amazon Review
Updrift (The Mer Chronicles Book 1)
Love isn’t in the air. It’s in the water.
Since her father died, Kate Sweeting’s home life has been in the pits, her well-being on life support.
Her future looks desolate until she and her mother, Cara, make another plan: abandon their shriveled existence for more promising prospects on the coast, where Cara can play small-town librarian-bachelorette and Kate can figure out what’s up with that secretive Blake family from the beach.
Everyone is eerily captivated with Kate and her mother, and Cara is the first to figure out why when the man of her dreams arrives all dripping and devoted and closed-mouthed about what he intends. Kate is willing to go along with their subterfuge for a while, but eventually makes a charge for the water to learn what her mother is hiding. Gabe Blake is there waiting for her…and so is someone considerably less friendly.
