For some reason I cannot find this book at any store. Target & Borders (being big ones) are the only places I havent tried. But no Walmart, or smaller stores/chaines have it.

Is she just not that popular yet?

I loved Sea witch.

Isn’t anyone else thinking the series is called “Chicken of the Sea” when they first glance at it? :-/

Seals EAT sushi. Raw fish is their primary/only diet, hence, sushi.

That said, I loved SEA WITCH, and am salivating at the opportunity of snatching up SEA FEVER when I go to town Tuesday. (Unless it is at the Target already.)

I can imagine it with animals that are majestic, regal, stealthy, or any of the macho adjectives like lions, wolves, panthers or the like. Mermen wouldn't work for me either. Just ugh.

“Sea lion” isn’t cutting it for you, even though it has “lion” in the name? *grin*

I googled images on seals because I wanted to see if I could find something attractive about them as a romance hero. Sorry to say, no can do. With their massive bodies and little flipper arms- ugh. I can’t imagine watching my beloved shapeshift from a hot hunk-a-burning love to that.

the source of inspiration for merfolk cannibal erotica

Oh wow, I’m dying over that one! I can see it in a banner ad now.

I didn't come up with this on my own (I just took it in a whole new direction, LOL!).

Great. Not only is DA known as the home of the Mean Grrls, now we’re the source of inspiration for merfolk cannibal erotica too. Why’d you have to go there, Kalen!

DS – She explains that she does get court ordered child support but that the money of the restaurant is hidden to make it seem like the owner/boss/Chef does not have alot of ready income.

Forget the selkie angle– why isn’t the Big Name Chef paying child support? And if she has chef training why isn’t she able to support herself? I’d think there was more than one restaurant opportunity in Boston, at least more opportunities in Boston than she would find in the, I guess, aptly named World’s End, Me.

I read the first book in this series and really enjoyed it. I’ll definitely get this one . .

OMG. Now I have really dirty erotica plots running though my mind. Bring on the brain bleach!!!

Don't blame that on me.

Who else is there to blame? I didn’t come up with this on my own (I just took it in a whole new direction, LOL!).

In certain cultures, they say if you eat a mermaid's tail, you'll gain immortality. Ever since I heard that legend, a part of my brain must link merfolk to food.

Wait. Now I remember why I associate merfolk with sushi!

Too bad for the mermaids.

I didn’t like this one as much as Sea Witch. I never really warmed to Dylan. I also agree that there wasn’t a resolution to the missing parental units. It kinda fizzled out. That said, I still enjoy Kantra’s writing and am looking forward to the final book.

But seals don’t have scales? And are mammals? I don’t know! I’m with Kalen. When I think of seals, I think of circuses and them balancing balls on their noses. When I think of fish, I think of sushi. Except for sharks. Then I think of Jaws and that ominous background score.

Will you be able to read Joey Hill's winter release about mermaids?

Well, since you sent the book to me, we’ll find out, won’t we? I’m already somewhat horrified at the cover, which does not live up to the covers sported by her vampire erotica books.

Because seals are more wholly fishlike than merpeople which are part human, part sea creature right?

Selkies. Once again my typing has betrayed a most unfortunate subliminal adoration for stray apostrophes. *sigh*

Why would seals remind you of sushi? I've sever seen a seal nigri on a menu. I can see the headline now: Baby seals ruthlessly bludgeoned and eaten raw.

Maybe he's dissolving into a selkie right before our eyes!

He’s wearing pants! Besides, selkie’s don’t dissolve, they remove their seal skin (and hide it, because if it’s destroyed they can never return to the sea).

I kind of liked the cover (almost wrote licked). I think the color and the positioning of the cover model plus its relevance to the story. Maybe he’s dissolving into a selkie right before our eyes!

and Jia, how can you read stories about seals and not think of sushi? I would think that would be more sushi like than merfolk??? Will you be able to read Joey Hill’s winter release about mermaids?
