Written almost exactly like Hans Christian Andersen’s ‘The little Mermaid’ and the Disney movie except Carolyn Turgeon’s version has two protagonists, the mermaid and a princess The Princess starts off being disguised as a nun living in a convent by the sea and is a witness as the mermaid brings a half dead prince to the shore. After that issues unfold including a love triangle. More of an adult fantasy because there is blood, pain, and sex.
Some issues: -The prince however seems to have hardly no emotion at all. -The original little mermaid was much about sacrifice and this retailing has hardy no talk of sacrifice until the end. -A lot of mentions of god, but no further exploration over the lord the reasons behind the mermaid wanting to marry in order to have an eternal human soul. ...more

The writing style was a little poor though, but still worth reading!
I never realized until half way through that this is the third book of a series. But each book is a completely different story featuring a different sister and her love so they don’t need to be read in order!
“A newspaper reporter who is close to wrapping up a story on a retirement home is sent off as a distraction to write articles about finding long lost treasure in Jamaica. Along the way, red headed Hope Sinclair falls deeply in love with ex Navy SEAL/treasure hunter Conner Reese and the rest is history!”
I loved the main plot of this story of searching for sunken treasure in the Caribbean! I did find it annoying how Hope kept denying her love for Conner when it was quite obvious she did have feelings for him! Also I didn’t quite understand Hartley house, (a retirement home that was on a property of land the villain’s in the story wanted to get a hold of). The villains in the story were also not as evil as they could have been.
Overall it was a great story! Makes me want to try out scuba diving for myself! ...more
I don’t usually get into romance novels, but this was a beautiful love story. (With some very intense sex scenes I might add!)

A story about finding true love as well as learning to love and to trust in your self!
Piper, a spoiled girl from LA gets tossed over to Westport, Washington after throwing an outrageous party and making her step father go crazy! There in Westport she comes across a young, hot fisherman, Brendan. Because of Westport being a small town, the two keep bumping into one another and soon enough they hit it off and love blossoms!
The first half starts off rather slow, but the second half really captures the readers attention with conflict between Piper and Brendan.
Good positive love story with bits of humor! It will definitely put a smile on your face!
Not enough action though in my opinion. I’m so used to novels with fight scenes and car chases. But this book will definitely warm your heart! ...more
