4.0

What an enticing and magical read! 4/5 stars!

I adored Marissa and her mythical encounter with the deep blue sea. Quite a predicament she found herself in, trying to save the boy she loved from drowning and unknowingly exchanging her freedom in the process. The lengths someone would go for the ones they loved was truly tested in this book. But at what cost?

As the story progressed, it wasn't so clear who Risa's heart belonged to after all. Lines started to blur and feelings became jumbled as she spent more time with the bad boy of the beach Caleb. Her sights were fully set on the golden boy surfer Ty, but he had clearly put her in the friend zone long ago. Torn between two incredible guys, Marissa was faced with the uncertainty of which one could actually break the curse and save her.

A modern day spin on a classic story, this young adult romance with a fantasy feel was a wonderful read! The characters were endearing. The setting was perfect for a summertime read. The story line was unique and sweet. And the ending, oh the ending! My heart was so happy!!!!! I couldn't get enough of Risa and Caleb and never wanted the book to end.
