About Aquamarine: Pretty Little Mermaids, Book 1 (Unabridged)

To most mermaids, salt has a capital S, but Eadie is not your average siren. "If being a siren means I’ll eventually have to leave everyone who ever meant anything to me, then I don’t want it." I’m the youngest of a set of triplets, and I share little in common with my sisters. Larimar and Lazuli don’t seem bothered by the fact that they’re destined to live their semi-immortal lives controlled by their salt cycle. But after it took Mom, I flipped the ocean a set of double-birds. The salt can’t have me. My life is mine. My voice is mine. My fins and legs are both mine—and I prefer the latter. I try to live as a normal high school senior (I'm even on the swim team) but I have my own personal bully who makes my life hell. I also have a serious crush on Seth Foster, who doesn't seem to know I exist, and a reputation as a socially awkward science whiz. So maybe this is normal? When I find a mermaid in salt-flush trapped inside a wreck, she is proof that the salt is a hateful master, with no compassion for those whose lives it ruins, whose memories and identities it erases. Can the weakest link in the Jackson chain figure out a way to free her when my hard-earned front as a normal teenager starts to unravel. Or have I picked a fight I cannot win? Return to the siren realm of A.L. Knorr with her forthcoming series Pretty Little Mermaids , which expands the lore and worlds established in Born of Water , Mermaid’s Return and The Siren’s Curse , but is set before the events of the latter. Aquamarine takes place 2.5 years after the events of Cobalt , and is a true Young Adult contemporary fantasy novel, complete with high school angst, a prom, bullies, a sweet romance, team sports drama and family drama, all intertwined with the author's beloved mermaid mythology.
