Synopsis: 5 Dark Mermaid tales brimming with forbidden romances, curious underwater worlds, and kick-ass revenge seeking sirens.

Get lost in Alexia Purdy’s imaginative world of legends where in the depths of the ocean, an ancient creature awakens with a horrendous appetite and begins to hunt in Bloodtides and Slipstreams. Seek vengeance against ancient Grecian Gods in Jessica Ozment’s account of how one siren risks it all to break an unsightly curse Poseidon casts upon her, forcing her to dredge her land-loving soul mate from one side of the sea to the other in Sapphira: The Lost Lady of the Water. In Nicole Strycharz’s tale of gods, love, the mer, and mortals, destiny might mean tragedy and myth might mean reality in She Comes With The Tide. Dealing with a mysterious illness with her friend at her side, Jane propels herself into the unknown and discovers that she was meant to live an extraordinary life unlike anything she could have imagined in Scales by Stefanie Jolicoeur. Travel to a unique aquatic realm where Liasa’s human lover, Visal, is held captive by the son of Poseidon, she has little choice but to do whatever he wishes in order to save the life of the man she loves in Marsha Black’s story Liasa’s Tail of Woe.

Can you survive these stimulating underwater chronicles of regret, reprisal, and retribution?

My Review: I love fantasy stories and when I was asked to read this anthology I said yes.
          Some of these stories were better than others and at one point I was going to skip the story I was on and start on the next one but I persevered and read them all even though that particular story did not get better.
          Each of the stories were different which is great. The stories have broken hearts, other mythical creatures, soul mates and more. There were cliff-hangers in some of the stories which does not seem right for an anthology but I do know that some of these are just glimpses into full length novels that are to follow.
