Seventeen-year-old Emma Harris is drowning on dry land.
No one knows what’s happening to her, and she’d like to keep her evolution from human to mermaid a secret, but the truth is getting harder and harder to hide. From her adoptive family, from her friends, and especially from the irresistible James Phelps.
Her time in the ocean is spent dodging a possessive merman, while her time on land is split between caring for her special-needs brother and squeezing in every last possible moment of human life. She soon realizes falling for James is unavoidable when he constantly comes to Emma’s rescue and somehow manages to see through her carefully constructed icy facade to the vulnerability she lives with every day. Everything about James makes Emma yearn for a life on land she just can't have.
When Emma’s brother disappears on her watch, James is the only person she trusts to help her save him. But even if they can save her brother, nothing can prevent her return to the sea. Whether she likes it or not, Emma is changing—unable to breathe without yielding to the tide—and it's only a matter of time before she's forced to surrender forever.

For readers of A Game of Thrones and The Hunger Games comes an epic new series.
The night Quin Kincaid takes her Oath, she will become what she has trained to be her entire life. She will become a Seeker. This is her legacy, and it is an honor. As a Seeker, Quin will fight beside her two closest companions, Shinobu and John, to protect the weak and the wronged. Together they will stand for light in a shadowy world. And she'll be with the boy she loves--who's also her best friend.
But the night Quin takes her Oath, everything changes. Being a Seeker is not what she thought. Her family is not what she thought. Even the boy she loves is not who she thought.
And now it's too late to walk away.

What did you guys get this week? Let me know in the comments.
I'm reading Seeker as well, and I'm kind of impressed by how good it is! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on the series by A.G. Howard. I've been wanting to pick that series up, but I never knew if it was really for me.

I feel like A.G. Howard's book are for everyone, but I guess everyone has their own style. And I just started Seeker and so far I'm in love with it! :)
DeleteThanks so much for stopping by.
I got Splintered from Netgalley more than a year ago, but (so ashamed) never read it ! I think I will have to keep the pace with this series because I've heard so many good things about it !
ReplyDeleteHope you'll enjoy all your books and have a great weekend!
My Haul @ Sara In Bookland
AAAH! You're going to drive me crazy until you read it. Go do it right now! The series is absolutely amazing and I know you will love it.
DeleteThank you so much for stopping by :)
I've seen Unhinged and Ensnared everyone recently! Interested to hear what you think of it. Happy reading! My STS haul
ReplyDeleteThanks Shanny, and yeah its been pretty popular ever since Ensnared came out. I'll definitely keep you posted, thanks for stopping by.
DeleteOOoh very nice! I need to read Ensnared this week! And I still need to read The Madness Underneath! Was holding out on that one until I had the third book because it apparently had a whopper of a cliffhanger! And there was a multi-year delay from the third one's release, so I say that was a good call on my part! LOL!
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
My STS will be up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by then!
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
Really? I had no clue about the ending of The Madness Underneath, I guess its a good thing I decided to wait. Thanks so much for the heads up, and thanks for stopping by :)
DeleteUnhinged and Ensnared have beautiful covers. I hope you love all your new books.
