This was a short but engaging read into the life of Madly who is one of the Mer people. She goes to school in a town called Slumber with her two best friends and it seems relatively normal. Things change when the "Lore" escape their watery prison and Atlas goes into lock-down cutting her off from her family who have been taken prisoner. Madly must find a a way to track down the prisoners and return them to Altas and save her family. Jackson provides the forbidden love interest because she is a princess and therefore cannot bond with a Sentinel although the attraction is there on both sides. She is betrothed to her best friend but it is more of a brotherly feeling that she holds for him and so she is torn between love and duty. Hard to get a real feel for the characters as it was a quick read but interesting enough and a great introduction to this series.
