Called to the Deep (Haven Cove Book 1)

Killian Quinn is the captain of the fish boat, Dawn Chaser, who receives a distress call from a sailing ship in a storm. When the captain and his crew arrive, the ship is destroyed, and the only survivor is Lorelei Roth, a woman who has hypothermia. There are no other survivors or bodies found. When Lorelei and Killian meet for the first time, the attraction is instant between them. As they get to know one another, Lorelei is plagued with survivor’s guilt and strange dreams that have her sleepwalking into the ocean. What really happened to that sailing ship and who is she really?

 

“Called to the Deep” is a different twist on the mermaid tail with some added romance. The reader will be drawn into the story from the very first page as one tries to figure out the mystery about what happened on that sailing ship, Osprey, and why Lorelei Roth survived. The author has created a wonderful story in a small-town setting with well written and unique characters. The reader will love how the characters communicate with one another and stand up for one another, although one may not feel the connection and attraction between them as strongly as hoped. One will love learning Lorelei’s story as she discovers who she really is, and her struggles to control herself and remain human. This is an excellent start to a new series, but beware of the cliffhanger ending that will leave readers wanting more.
