Review: a cheap pitch to get you to buy the rest of the books

I feel ripped off! This is not a book, it's not a "novelette", its literally a fourth of a story- more like the portion of a book that you'd get as a free sample. (I realize that the book is currently available for free, however, I paid for it)The "end" is by no means an ending, it's not even a cliffhanger...the story just stops BEFORE the climax!Now besides the pathetic pitch to get readers to buy more of her work, the "book" was actually decent. A few characters felt flat, but overall the writing was good. I like the fact that it is about mermaids, a paranormal population that is not uber popular at this time. The inclusion of well known fairy tales was cute and worked without being annoying. I was also eager to watch the relationship of the "star crossed lovers" develop. But, I will not pay for bits and pieces of the same story multiple times... So I will not purchase book two and find out where things go
