Story4.5 out of 5 stars 37
Lucy's life by the pond has always been full. She has water and friends, laughter and the love of her adoptive mother, Lynn, who has made sure that Lucy's childhood was very different from her own. Yet it seems Lucy's future is settled already - a house, a man, children, and a water source - and anything more than life by the pond is beyond reach. When disease burns through their community, the once life-saving water of the pond might be the source of what's killing them now.

Story5 out of 5 stars 158
When a car crash sidelines Mickey just before softball season, she has to find a way to hold on to her spot as the catcher for a team expected to make a historic tournament run. Behind the plate is the only place she’s ever felt comfortable, and the painkillers she’s been prescribed can help her get there. The pills do more than take away pain; they make her feel good. But as the pressure to be Mickey Catalan heightens, her need increases, and it becomes less about pain and more about want, something that could send her spiraling out of control.

Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the kingdom of Phthia to be raised in the shadow of King Peleus and his golden son, Achilles. “The best of all the Greeks”—strong, beautiful, and the child of a goddess—Achilles is everything the shamed Patroclus is not. Yet despite their differences, the boys become steadfast companions. Their bond deepens as they grow into young men and become skilled in the arts of war and medicine—much to the displeasure and the fury of Achilles’ mother, Thetis, a cruel sea goddess with a hatred of mortals.

Publisher's Summary
Duty, fate, desire, and destiny collide in this intricately wrought tale, perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas.
Although she was born to save the kingdom by sacrificing herself to the rising sea, Khosa's marriage to King Vincent has redeemed her. As the Queen of Stille, she's untouchable. But being Queen hasn't stopped her heart from longing for the King's stepbrother, Donil. And it hasn't stopped her body from longing for the sea itself, which still calls for her.
While Khosa is made to choose between loyalty and love, Dara is on a mission for vengeance. Years ago, the Pietra slaughtered the entire Indiri race, leaving only Dara and her twin, Donil, alive. Now, spurned by King Vincent, Dara has embarked on a mission to spill the blood of Pietra's leader, Witt, and will stop at nothing to show his people the wrath of the last Indiri.
As the waves crash ever closer to Stille, secrets are revealed, hearts are won and lost, and allegiances change like the shifting sand.
Various roles as read by a cast of Narrators:
- Will Damron as Ank
- Alex McKenna as Dara
- Andrew Eiden as Donil
- Monika Felice Smith as Khosa
- Robbie Daymond as Vincent
- Sunil Malhotra as Witt
Critic Reviews
"The ending of this lyrically written sequel is even more shocking, well-executed, and, refreshingly, not entirely happy.... The distinct perspectives shine, and the harsh-yet-hopeful conclusion ensures this duology doesn’t succumb to the tired trope of happily-ever-after, making this a worthwhile read." (Kirkus Reviews)
"McGinnis crafts an exceptional story from multiple points of view, providing fully fleshed out characters fans can’t help but cheer for - even the antagonists.... A satisfying duology conclusion for romance and fantasy fans." (School Library Journal)
"With six narrators and multiple kingdoms, races, histories, and cultures, this sequel to Given to the Sea...provides a satisfying conclusion to the saga.... McGinnis as established a fascinating, frequently gory, and fully realized backstory for each narrator." (Booklist)

In awe..
I find myself staying up till 2:06 in the morning not having a tired bone in my body needing to finish this story. What a wild ride. The first book at twists and turns but this one, had me gasping. I was truly surprised at ALL the twists and only wish I had more to hear. I hope one day the author will write more. But a good end to an amazing story. 10/10. Would recommend highly! But read the first book first, for sure.
