This is a short story (novelette) but it is filled with so much story, and by the end, you will know so much about Madly, her role as a Princess; her betrothed who is actually sorta like a brother to her (uh oh); a possible crush that is not her betrothed (double ohs), whose a sentinel that can be seen as someone forbidden to even crush on. In addition, this is an introduction to the characters; we understand what they are, and how they connect to the human world. We read about a huge problem that only Madly could really fix, and boy it's not easy! This already seems like a very interesting concept filled with different types of beings: Merpeople, Sentinels, Seers...oh my! I have to say, that I have not read many stories with Mermaids, menfolk characters, but this was pretty cool! We are also given a glimpse of what the next story might be about, and it for sure sounds goood! This is my first time reading M. Leighton's work and I'm excited to be reading more!
