Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. This was a fun spin on The Little Mermaid! Here, instead of a mermaid falling for a male human prince, we have a siren falling for a female pirate captain. I really enjoyed the worldbuilding in both land and sea. I adore the concept because The Little Mermaid is one of my favorite Disney films. And it kept me reading, wanting to know what happened next. And that ending! It caught me off guard and left me curious about what would happen in the sequel. While I liked this book (and admittedly binge-read it 2/3 is the book in one sitting), sadly the general lack of characterization prevented me from loving it. I never felt that Kae and Aqeara, or the side characters were fully fleshed out and I really wanted to feel like I was on the adventure with them, instead of feeling as if I was watching them from a distance. And I was hoping for a little more from the love story - it did feel a little insta-lovey to me. In the sense that our protagonists didn’t interact much through the bulk of the book, and then fell in love rather quickly. I felt their friendship more than their love in this instance. In any case, I’ll most likely read the sequel. This was a fun spin on The Little Mermaid!

A sapphic Little Mermaid retelling perfect for fans of To Kill a Kingdom and The Shadows Between Us.Out in the open sea, it's kill or be killed. No one knows that better than Kaelyn. For the past year, Princess Kaelyn of Avalon has disguised herself as a man, Captain Kae, and led her crew into tumultuous waters to eradicate sirens on a journey fueled by revenge for the death of her brother. When they return home and experience a fatal siren attack on Avalon's harbor, Kae sets sail again to destroy the sea demons once and for all.Aqeara is a siren warrior of Meyrial, an underwater kingdom hidden from humans. When her negligence during the Avalon harbor attack causes the death of Meyrial's princess, she accepts the help of a sea witch to overturn her banishment. Aqeara is given a human body and has until the next full moon to carve out Captain Kae's heart in exchange for a spell to bring the dead princess back to life.When Kae's and Aqeara's paths cross, they fall into a whirlwind romance, complicating their respective plans. Kae must decide whether her desire for revenge against sirens overrides her feelings for the woman she's falling for, and Aqeara must choose between resurrecting the dead princess or sparing Kae's life.
