The lore of mermaids and mermen is real! As Gretchen McNeil, author of Possess, says, "Riveting! A cold-blooded tale of secrets, revenge, and forbidden love that will leave you terrified to go in the water."Calder White lives in the cold, clear waters of Lake Superior, the only brother in a family of murderous mermaids. To survive, Calder and his sisters prey on humans and absorb their positive energy. Usually, they select their victims at random, but this time around, the underwater clan chooses its target for a reason: revenge. They want to kill Jason Hancock, the man they blame for their mother's death.It's going to take a concerted effort to lure the aquaphobic Hancock onto the water. Calder's job is to gain Hancock's trust by getting close to his family. Relying on his irresistible good looks and charm, Calder sets out to seduce Hancock's daughter Lily. Easy enough, but Calder screws everything up by falling in love--just as Lily starts to suspect there's more to the monster-in-the-lake legends than she ever imagined, and just as the mermaids threaten to take matters into their own hands, forcing Calder to choose between them and the girl he loves.One thing's for sure: whatever Calder decides, the outcome won't be pretty.

3.0 La vendetta è una trappola, il tuo bacio la salvezza.
Purtroppo questo si sta rivelando un periodo di letture deludenti.. molti romanzi che attendevo con ansia si sono rivelati, alla fine, libri piacevoli ma di poco conto.. e Un bacio dagli abissi non fa eccezione. Ammaliata dalla splendida cover e della trama originale, mi aspettavo una storia cupa e ...

2.0 Review: Lies Beneath (Lies Beneath # 1) by Anne Greenwood Brown
When I learned there was a story about murderous mermaids living in Lake Superior, I couldn't resist checking it out. I haven't read many books that take place so close to home, so I was quite excited at the prospect of reading Lies Beneath. The North Shore is probably one of my favorite places o...

Forget about The Little Mermaid and Ingo. This isn't your favourite fairy-tale story. These merpeople are d...
