Publisher's Summary

Dark and romantic young adult fantasy for fans of Sarah J Maas - about the siren with a taste for royal blood and the prince who has sworn to destroy her.

Princess Lira is siren royalty and the most lethal of them all.

With the hearts of 17 princes in her collection, she is revered across the sea. Until a twist of fate forces her to kill one of her own. To punish her daughter, the Sea Queen transforms Lira into the one thing they loathe most - a human. Robbed of her song, Lira has until the winter solstice to deliver Prince Elian's heart to the Sea Queen or remain a human forever.

The ocean is the only place Prince Elian calls home, even though he is heir to the most powerful kingdom in the world. Hunting sirens is more than an unsavoury hobby - it's his calling. When he rescues a drowning woman in the ocean, she's more than what she appears. She promises to help him find the key to destroying all of sirenkind for good.

But can he trust her? And just how many deals will Elian have to barter to eliminate mankind's greatest enemy?

Intense and Intersting

This book delivered almost everything I wanted as I eagerly (figuratively speaking) turned each page to find out more! The scenes are set with vivid, descriptive language and Christo has done well at developing the two main characters.

The only thing missing for me was a slight bit more romance. I’m a sucker for it. The ending left me wanting more of the “happy ending”. I want it spelt out for me, not left up to my imagination. All in all though, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and the performances of both narrators!

Very enjoyable

I really liked the Little Mermaid twist. The set up was great and I enjoyed the romance build up. Voice acting was very good.

Nice twist on The Little Mermaid

Enjoyed the story. and the male reader is good. The female reader EXPRESSES unnecessary words and ruins it a little. accentuating when it's not needed, but otherwise enjoyable stort

It had great promise, but didn’t quite make it for me.

When I started this book I was hooked, loved the descriptions and the story had so much promise, but the entire middle was boring and the romance was flat and undeveloped. I felt nothing for the characters, I knew everything that was going to happen, and the end was also predictable

Fantastic start, slow finish.

This story had me instantly from the blurb and opening chapter - however as the book progressed I found that there were definitely parts that seemed to drag on and become dull. Overall, entertaining and ticks the box for fantasy/adventure hence the 3 stars.
