REVIEW: Son of the Sea by Nancy Holder

Dear Ms. Holder,
/>I’m afraid the merfolk romance is not for me. I’ve never been enchanted by merpeople and honestly, the thought of getting up close and personal with someone who has a fishtail weirds me out. It also makes me crave sushi, which weirds me out even more. [...]
