Book Description

When a girl goes from lifeguard to princess…
Maris Sanders thinks she’s a normal high school girl. Until she starts developing underwater powers that aren’t normal at all. When a good-looking stranger, with the odd name of Cuda, comes into her life and tells her stories, she discovers a history that stuns her.
A lost princess. A lost kingdom. And two lost sisters she never knew she had.
Not knowing who to believe, Maris is determined to find the truth. About herself, her powers, and her sisters. But a scientist hired by Cuda’s father is determined to use her as a science experiment. Maris must decide whether to risk her life and her present human reality to join a battle under the sea. And if she doesn’t, will she ever find where she truly belongs?

Book Review

Maris has had the most normal life among the three princesses so far. She doesn't even know that she is adopted. She has never been allowed close to the ocean by her parents and it comes as a surprise to her that she could swim without ever having taken a single lesson. She is fast enough to win medals for her school and obviously feels that working as a life guard is a perfect summer job. Although she though she would end up at pool duty like most newbies, not at the beach.

Cuda has more than a passing interest in Maris. He thinks that she may be the lost princess, but he needs to find out if she is aware of her own special talents. Before he can test her, she ends up rescuing Dirk Devilla. The son of a scientist who is in cahoots with the separatist leaders. He's looking for the princess but really doesn't believe in the legend like his father does. Unfortunately its all true and Dirk manages to trap Maris and hand her over to his father.

Maris is just about coming to terms with the fantastic legend which both Cuda and Dirk are convinced is about her and two other lost princesses when she discovers her special ability...to heal in the ocean. There's a whole lot of story left even once the book ends. Can't wait to find out how the three united princesses and their personal body guards deal with the situation underwater and the coming war.

Book Description

When a girl on a quest gets kidnapped…
Princess Coral wants one thing. Actually two. Her lost sisters. Locked in her underwater castle by an evil regent intent on seizing control of her kingdom, Coral is determined to break free and find her siblings. When she tries to escape, she’s seized by her childhood crush, Finn. 
This wasn’t the reunion she’d expected. Finn plays a delicate game. A game of loyalty, betrayal, and honor.
Even though Finn is working for the enemy, Coral needs his help to reunite with her sisters and stop an underwater war. She must risk her heart to gain his trust. But what will happen if Finn chooses against her?

Book Review

Of the three Princesses of Atlantis, only one made it back with her regent. That was Princess Cordelia. Or Coral as her close friend Finn likes to call her. Coral has doubts about her being a genuine princess because Mollusk her regent plants them there. She hopes that by looking for her two sisters she will be able to convince him and the rest of her citizens of her claim to rule. Unfortunately she is little more than a prisoner in her own castle...

Till someone abducts her. Someone she trusted before he became a separatist. Some one who did more than stand her up for a date she was really looking forward to. Someone who broke her heart...Can she trust Finn this time round not to betray her? Can he keep her safe even as people try to murder her to do away with the legend?

The plot thickens now as we come to know that Finn is actually Pearl's step brother, but was led away from the Royalists by his father. Now he fights with his own heart's desire to keep Coral safe, and the ideology that refuses to suffer the policies that Mollusk implements. With the two of them manage to survive not just the enemies trying to kill them but also each other?!

Book Description

When a girl runs away from the circus…
For all her sixteen years, Pearl Poseidon has been a fish out of water. A freak on display for her adoptive parents’ profit. Running away from her horrible life, she craves one thing—anonymity. But when she saves a small boy from drowning she exposes herself and her mutant abilities to Chase, a budding investigative reporter.
Now, he has questions. And so do the police.
Once Pearl discovers her secret identity, she learns she’s part of a larger war between battling Atlanteans. A battle that will decide who rules the oceans. A battle raging between evil and her true family. Will she find a way to use her powers in time to save a kingdom she never knew existed?

Book Review


Pearl (that name is so appropriate for a deep sea dweller) is a teenager who has had a miserable life so far. Her ability to breathe underwater had made her into a freak to be exhibited by her adoptive parents who are part of a circus. When she finally manages to run away she's determined to keep that fact from everyone around her so no one ever gets to take advantage of her again. Then a boy falls into the water at the amusement park and she jumps in to save him.

Chase is the nephew of the amusement park owner. He notices that Pearl was down in the water way longer than humanly possible. He befriends her to learn her secret. He is an investigative journalist and he has his life all planned out. A scoop like this could make his reputation.

When Pearl learns of his treachery she decides to swim away. In the ocean she makes new friends, learns of a whole new world and is surprised to hear of a whole war going on underwater. She needs to decide if she really wants to be a part of the power struggle in the ocean, or return to the shore and try to piece her life together.

Emotional drama over Pearl's life was heart breaking. Just how much more does a teenage girl have to bear? Lot of intrigue, and hints of things to come. Looking forward to the next book in the series to see just how Pearl matures. The book had well developed primary characters, an interesting plot, and a hook to keep you wanting to come back for more!
