By: Val E. Lane

Narrated by: Stephanie Nemeth-Parker

Unravel the past. Break the curse. Pass midterms. And don’t fall in love with dead pirates…

Katrina Delmar has no idea that Milo, the charming guy she meets at a college party, was supposed to have died at sea 300 years ago. She only knows that she's drawn to him right away. But she’s also caught the attention of his crewmate, Bellamy, whose mysterious allure is hard to resist.

Falling for undead pirates is the least of her worries when there seems to be something sinister lurking beneath the surface. When the ruthless captain of the ship discovers Katrina may hold the key to breaking the crew’s curse, he's hellbent on taking it from her at whatever cost.

With time running out, Katrina must learn who she can trust and unlock the mysteries of the past before she and those she loves are pulled under by a curse of her own.

From Tormented Tides is a contemporary pirate fantasy with a slow burn romance. The story includes mentions of suicide, alcoholism, nightmares/hallucinations, drowning, violence and death.

Speechless…Fanstastic

I loved the entire series. Every time I listened I could just picture every little detail in my head. I can picture the characters so perfectly like I was watching it as a movie. The story line had its twist and turns which only made me more intrigued to know what is going to happen next. The mix between pirates, mermaids, time travel just tied in so perfectly. They need to make this series into a show or movie ASAP!

Quick read

I enjoyed it well enough. I love all things mermaid and mystery so this was right up my alley. Milo is a sweetheart and I enjoyed his storyline with Katrina. Satisfied with the end, and of course, the cliffhanger.

All the Pirate and Mermaid Vibes

Such a gorgeous and haunting story!! I really loved the mystery, the FL setting, and the way all the pieces connected. Such a quirky and original mermaid and pirate story - stands out among the many I read! Suspenseful, charming, magical, and full of heartbreak. Definitely looking forward to the next book!!

Loved the story line and the plot

The story and the plot kept me intrigued and wanting more can’t wait for next book

Great modern mermaid story

Great story line keeps you on your toes. It’s everything and more than we wanted out of the 13th year Disney movie . If you like mermaids, forbidden romance and defeating the odd with a twist of slight magic in the modern world this is a great listen.
