About
Surfacing ties together the stories of Returning, Falling, and Born of Water. Follow Mira's story as she faces life as a single mother, wrestles with the constant call of the ocean to her mermaid nature, and joins an all-male salvage team who is less than thrilled to have her.
When my mother died, I ran to the ocean like a coward. Its cradle of salt puckered my memories and withered my sorrow like a grape drying in the sun. I had cheated grief and was foolish enough to think I had gotten away with it.
When Nathan died, I couldn't run away. No matter how much I flinched, bending toward the Atlantic the way ivy strains for rays of light, I could not leave. Grief was back to take what belonged to it.
I had everything I wanted a few short years ago. A beloved mate. A beautiful daughter. A home, a family. My head spins to think how everything can change so suddenly. Later, I wondered if I was the only mermaid to ever fully experience the five stages of grief. But I still had my daughter.
Targa had yet to turn, the color and shape of her fins yet to be revealed, but she would. I had been so sure of it then. Siren genes are passed from mother to daughter without fail. Young legs melded into a shimmering virgin tail in response to a salty sea. But Targa didn't turn in response to ocean water. Not the first time. Not any time after that. Something was wrong. I shoved my fear down deep into some dark corner where Targa would not see it. I comforted her with a smile that said we'd just have to keep trying.
If you love alluring shifters, strong female protagonists and a fresh take on mermaid mythology, dive into Surfacing today!
