Book 1 of 3: A Mermaid's Curse

See all formats and editions

Arianna always felt like she didn’t belong in the world where she was born. Ever since she was little, she used to hide behind the rocks in the sea, and watch the human family who spent their summers on that island. Over the years, there was nothing she wished more than to be like them, especially so she could get close to Blake, the human boy who she saw turn into a troubled teenager and then, an unhappy man.

Once her dad grew tired of her dreams and hopes for a reality that is not her own, Arianna is thrown into an arranged marriage, and her only way out of it is to make a deal with the power-hungry man who will give her everything that she has ever dreamed of. Dreams that turn into nightmares as she watches Blake’s world fall apart, because of her and Blake’s inability to control their desires for one another.

Due to sexual content and language, this book is recommended for 17+

A Great Read!

Reviewed in the United States on 31 December 2013

Arianna is a mermaid who is the next in line to rule. She has never felt she belonged and she loved to go the island where she noticed a boy named Blake. She has always wanted to know what made him have the look in his eyes. She knew that he had a lot on her shoulders. When she is approached one day to have one of her dreams come true, she takes it.

She never knew given in to the guy she loved would cause so many problems. She knows that there is more going on then anyone is telling her. When she thinks her life is finally safe from her mermaid family she takes a chance to be on the water again. If only she could've seen the future.

I feel in love with this book and couldn't put it down. Arianna and Blake were meant to be together but it seems that other's don't want it to happen. I love this series.

This is my first mermaid story, it was recommended by a friend. So I decided to take a chance because I usually don't go for mermaid stories . Well I am glad I did. This was a very fast read for me . I started in the afternoon and was done by the time it was bed time. Arianna is a mermaid that so wants to be on the land with legs and to fall in love with the object of her desire Blake. She has wanted him since she was young , she watched him grow up and her love grew with it . But alas she has problems of her own. They are thrown together and the world falls apart around them because they can't keep their hands off of each other.

Lets just say there is so much going on in this book , you will not be disappointed. We have arranged marriage under the sea, a human almost engaged to another human. There is magic and evil. There is romance and angst of young love and the burden of family. Doing what is expected of your family instead of doing what is in your heart. It reads like a cross between the little mermaid and Romeo and Juliet . There are times that you will be laughing and other times going what the hell just happened and why did they have to go through that. Oh yeah don't forget the ocean, and it figures into the story also.

The characters are well written and honestly you want to give Arianna a good shake every now and then and say Girl you will get through this and quit being a pushover. Blake is a very broken man he has had so man bad things happen to him through his life . You just really want to hug him or shake him hard every now and then. I mean he bounced back and forth so much. One minute he was loving Arianna and the hurting her. I really just kind a wanted to slap him , but he finally realized and grew up in my opinion and realized that Arianna was the one there for him day in and out . That he wanted to be the hero in her fairy tale. The character that surprised me the most was Owen. He was totally a bad boy, and party boy. He even did the nurse in Blake's hospital bed while Blake and Arianna were at physical therapy. Which only a bad boy would do. As you read this book you each character grow and when things come to light towards the end of the book . You will finally understand why Blake and Owen acted the way they did. Especially Owen.

The author took me on a roller coaster ride with lots of twists and turns. But I will warn you though there is a big cliff hanger at the end of this book. I was frustrated cause I really want to know what the heck will happen and will they actually get their happily ever after. This book is a great afternoon read . So grab a cup of tea a snack and a cozy blanket . Settle down and be prepared to swim with the fishes . Ok I know that was bad but hey had to throw it in there. If you like mermaids with a twist . Check it out

Enjoyable but missing something

Reviewed in the United States on 20 July 2013

I have mixed feelings about this story. On one hand, I did enjoy it to a degree and I liked that it dealt with mermaids. On the other hand, everything happened so fast. There was more telling than showing, also. And quite a few grammatical errors.

It's a quick and easy read, and a nice story, but I felt there were things missing. I liked Blake and Arianna together, but their romance happened too fast for my liking. I guess a lot of people love that kind of thing, though.

I was more intrigued by the ending than anything, though, and it left me curious as to what'll happen in the next book. So overall, a solid 3 for me. Enjoyable, a nice read, but there's something missing from it for me to really enjoy it the same as everyone else.

Badly written, bad storyline.

Reviewed in the United States on 26 October 2016

So.... I really wanted to like this book. I stuck through it half way but finally just couldn't finish it. Even the whole mystery about what Owen is or why he has this power wasn't enough to keep me committed to reading.

I felt like I was being force-fed information. You know, like you ask someone for pizza but they want to tell you every ingredient and how it's made? The whole thing felt very forced and unbelievable.

Even if you take out the fact that this mermaid is thrust into the human world but somehow human items don't seem foreign to her (which was a big distraction because let's face it, she shouldn't know what a phone and closet or microwave are), the bad grammar and misspellings were too distracting to stay committed.

I'm not giving it a one star only because I don't want to be mean and because I technically didn't finish it. So it could have gotten better later on. However, the key is to keep the reader reading from the beginning and I'm afraid this book fell flat.

I think she could have a decent story if she got a good editor and revisited the whole story with the thought of being blind to the human world (what would you think a brush was for if you had never used or seen one?).

Had Me Hooked!!

Reviewed in the United States on 9 June 2017

I'm not going to to too much in depth with this because I don't want to give anything away. However, I will say that I absolutely loved this book! By the title and it's synopsis, you already know it's about a mermaid that gets legs to pursue a boy she's been watching. It's a great read; kept me guessing and on the edge of my seat. The suspense, the action, the naughtiness. Gosh, it was so much to take in!!
