Summary
Anger. Betrayal. Exile. Isla always knew she would be queen. One day. But after the death of her mother, matriarch of the Southern Pacific merfolk kingdom, that day grew much closer than she was prepared for. Worse, to become a mermaid queen, she must marry. It is the only way to protect her kingdom. Forcibly betrothed to her childhood friend and father’s fiercest warrior, Isla is desperate for an escape - no matter the cost. But until she marries, her father is filled with a power his body cannot handle, and his control is steadily slipping. After an explosive fight with her father, Isla flees to the surface, only to find herself in the middle of a violent storm with two choices: Swim to safety or save the human man she sees drowning in the tumultuous waves. Her decision will change her life, as well as her kingdom, forever. A story inspired by The Little Mermaid like you’ve never seen before.

A mermaid story
Isla is being forced into an arranged marriage with her best friend, by her father, the king of the mermaids. It's been prompted by the death of her mother who had extreme magical powers. Now that her power has been transferred to her father it has become dangerously unstable, and the only way to prevent this is to marry off Isla so she can reclaim the power and become queen. However, Isla wants none of this and 'swims' away for a life elsewhere. During her escape she comes across humans. She feels no reason to not trust them, letting down her guard, only to be terribly betrayed. It's up to her to correct her mistake before it's too late.
This is a YA coming of age story. Isla comes across as a bit of a brat rebelling against her father because she hasn't considered the full picture of events and the consequences of actions. During this book she has to grow up fast, take control and rectify the very big problem she inadvertently caused. I did find there were a few inconsistencies with the story, but it was a decent read.
I received a copy of this book for free of my own choosing and am voluntarily leaving a review.
