In this
sequel to Of Poseidon, Emma’s mom, Nalia, is recognized as the lost princess
of Poseidon and Emma’s boyfriend, Galen goes undersea to get his brother, who was Nalia’s
betrothed. When Nalia and Galen’s
brother find each other again, they are excited to reunite even though they
thought each other dead. When they
return Nalia under the sea, the returning princess causes all the Royals to go
on trial and the kingdoms of Triton and Poseidon are pitted against each other. When it seems as though things couldn’t get
any worse, Emma is brought before the judges as a half-breed and has to prove
her Gift of Poseidon.
This series is an
engaging version of mermaids. Emma and
her boyfriend Galen have great chemistry and the threat against the kingdom is
interesting to follow. The is a fast and
clean read that young adults will enjoy.
The ending is also satisfying.
