Back Cover: Her spell cannot be
broken… From the water… For year, Margred has gone without the touch of
another. Now, her need has driven her beyond her own world. For she is a selkie
– a legendary being of the sea, able to shape-shift into seductive human form.
Finally, she has found the one she wants… From the land… A burned-out veteran
of the big-city streets, Caleb Hunter was only too happy to take the job as
police chief on the peaceful Maine island of World’s End. Nothing ever happens
in this tiny community surrounded by the sea – until he meets a woman who’s
everything he’s ever dreamed of. And more… To each other… Their passion is
undeniable. Irresistible. But when a murderer begins targeting women in World’s
End, Caleb must face the terrible possibility that the killings are somehow
connected to the mysterious Margred – and that the power of their love may
change the fate of humankind…
This is the first book in the Children of the Sea. It is a
book that is a bit mystery, paranormal, and romance. Margred isn’t looking for
anything long term. Her heart is with the sea and she just is in her need and
Caleb is perfect for that. While Caleb doesn’t know much about Margred he feels
the need to be with her and hopefully keep her with him. The story is one that
I found to be a quick read. We get sucked into the drama that is surrounding
Caleb and his past while hoping that Margred will stay with him. It was
something that I thought is a good story with characters that you do care
about. But it didn't captivate me like I would have thought. I will see where this series will go from here
in the next book, Sea Fever.
