I love mermaids and Born of Water by A L Knorr is a refreshing and novel glimpse into their life, both in and out of the sea.

I picked this up on a free day, so be sure and check for the “0”.

Born of Water (Elemental Origins, #1)

MY TEASE

‘”You’re playing with fire, Antoni. You think You’re in control here?…”

(48% on Kindle)

GOODREADS BLURB:  Everything you thought you knew about mermaids is wrong.

Life for a small-town high school kid in Saltford should be simple and straightforward – for 17-year-old Targa MacAuley, it’s anything but. Navigating life with a supernatural mother is tricky enough, but dealing with the feelings of guilt that she’s never been able to ‘change’, and confusion that she doesn’t seem to be attracted to boys (or girls for that matter), Targa feels like she’s got more demons than the average kid.

When the opportunity to salvage a mysterious wreck in the Baltic arises for her mom, a professional salvage diver by day, Targa jumps at the chance to go abroad for the summer. But it’s when she meets Antoni Baranek, and a boating accident puts them both in danger, that Targa’s world turns completely inside out in more ways than one.

I have read a lot of Anthony Renfro’s work and I love this short story, SHe.

The Living Sand is included as a bonus short.  Amazon: $1.00

MY REVIEW

Sara had expected so much more from life, as she lay in her bed, crying.

On alert, she grabbed her gun and approached the door.

The light brought her comfort…

SHe craved estrogen.

This may be morbid, especially if you read SHe, but I laughed. I was caught so off guard, never saw where this was going, and I love it.

If you are looking for something to keep you indoors, away from your door, cowering in your bed with the covers over your head, thinking you can hide from SHe, then grab this short story, open the pages and read it now.

MY REVIEW

Anthony Renfro has included another short story, The Living Sand.

I had read this when it was titled Evil Beach, but Anthony has been revamping his short stories and making new covers, so here is my review and rating.

Grandfather is sitting on the porch, entertaining the boys with stories.

As he told the true story of The Living Sand, the boys were spellbound.

Imagine, if you will, entering a portal and onto the most beautiful beach you have ever seen. Everything is so bright and vibrant, but where are the people?

I thought this would be the end, but it was only the beginning.

If you are tempted to go to the beach on the night of the full moon, you might want to think twice.

I was sucked in, misdirected and totally fooled by this wicked tale of daring or foolishness.

So, enter, if you dare and you decide.

SYNOPSIS

Goodreads Blurb:  A short story about two boys who discover a hidden beach and the evil deadly secrets that lie within its soft white grains of sand.

MY TEASE

Teagan dropped her gaze. “I keep thinking she’s out there in trouble, not far away, and crying for me to save her. If only we can figure out where.”  She raised her gaze. Misery swam in her eyes. “Why can’t I locate her, if I hear her calling me?”
