"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Title: Waterfell
Series: The Aquarathi 1
Author: Amalie Howard
Language: English
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Expected Publication: October 29, 2013
Summary:
Nerissa Marin hides among teens in her human form, waiting for the day she can claim her birthright—the undersea kingdom stolen from her the day her father was murdered. Blending in is her best weapon—until her father's betrayer confronts Nerissa and challenges her to a battle to the death on Nerissa's upcoming birthday—the day she comes of age.
Amid danger and the heartbreak of her missing mother, falling for a human boy is the last thing Nerissa should do. But Lo Seavon breaches her defenses and somehow becomes the only person she can count on to help her desperate search for her mother, a prisoner of Nerissa's mortal enemy. Is Lo the linchpin that might win Nerissa back her crown? Or will this mortal boy become the weakness that destroys her?
Why I am lurking on this: Stolen underwater kingdoms? Gosh, yes! This sounds totally magical, so it'd be perfect for one of my more girlier moments. Plus, I like the name Nerissa, and that cover is interesting, too.
They don't specifically mention mermaids in the synopsis, but that's what this has to be, right? The last mermaid book I read was a big disappointment, so I'm going to wait to hear more about Waterfell.
