I have to say I love the ocean and everything about it. This tale takes place in an island nation so I automatically took a liking to it. There is sadness at the beginning when Zhialeiana’s mother passes away, leaving the young lady to look after herself. Having no remaining family to care for her, she heads for a new island to find work.Zhialeiana is a very special girl and a loveable character. She has a special look about her, and she also has an amazing ability to communicate with sea life. She has some tense, adventurous moments that had me reading faster and faster. I couldn’t help but worry for the girl. The author managed to endear this character to me, and I loved her from the start. Her story seems far from over, and I would love to know what happens next.Anyone with an interest in island culture who enjoys dashes of fantasy and wonder will really enjoy this book.I was given a free copy in exchange for an unbiased review.
