Plot:

Yara Jones doesn’t believe in sea monsters-until she becomes one. When a hurricane hits her island home and she wakes up with fins, Yara finds herself tangled up in an underwater world of mysterious merfolk and secretive selkies. Both sides believe Yara can save them by fulfilling a broken promise and opening the sealed gateway to their realm, but they are battling over how it should be done. The selkies want to take her life. The merfolk want something far more precious.

Treygan, the stormy-eyed merman who turned Yara mer, will stop at nothing and sacrifice everything to protect his people-until he falls for Yara. The tides turn as Yara fights to save herself, hundreds of sea creatures, and the merman who has her heart. She could lose her soul in the process-or she might open the gateway to a love that’s deeper than the oceans.

Tangled Tides.. WOW i never really read any Sea Monster book but it was amazing.

Every character that was in the story turned out to be engaging and deep. Each character had their own problems to think of which made the plot so exciting. Yara is the beginning made me a little angry only because she couldn’t see that Rownan was only using her and she still only wanted to go back to him.

Yara’s relationship with her “Uncle” is what every kid should have they have no secrets and you can just tell that he cares for her well-being and only wants to help. This story was engaging from beginning to end. you have no idea how hard it was to be sitting in Physics and not being able to finish this story. TORTURE!

The climax of this novel was great! from the moment i started reading about the Gate to Rathe i wanted to  know how it would open and if it would! Another amazing aspect of this book was in influence from Greek Mythology. Having Medusa and Poseidon and the Gorgon’s mentioned was a bonus for me.

I cant wait to see what happens in the Second book!

I rate this a 5/5! READ IT NOW!
