| *MARINA* |
Hook (pun totally intended): Take a fish-phobic girl, divide her by one hot merman, add a splash of his crazy ex-merbitch, and you get one stinky school year.
Sixteen-year-old Marina Valentine is a rule-stretcher in an
uptight Texas seaside town. She’s
hormonally challenged, curious to a fault, hates fish, and has a dating resume
that makes the queen look like a slut. It’s not that guys don’t ask her out.
They do. She just has an unfortunate reaction to dating—uncontrollable gags.
It’s not exactly a turn on.
One by one, her oddball friends start disappearing—much to
the joy of the snobby high school royals—and Marina
fears she is a walking bull’s eye. Inquiries into their disappearances lead to
startling, gag-worthy discoveries. Toss in an increasingly inconvenient attraction
to one of the royals—who holds the key to solving the mystery…in his fin—and
it’s an anti-fish girl’s worst nightmare come true. Soon, Marina
finds herself at the center of a looming underwater war that’s really going to play
games with her love life.
As time closes in—and the Merpeople officially come out of
the ocean—Marina must choose between the lives of her friends, the future of an
underwater utopia, and the life of her first love. There’s just one problem. Where
does a love-shy, fish-phobic, non-mergirl even begin…especially when her enemy
may be the one person she trusted above everyone else?
Two secret wishes. Only one will be granted. Let the Mer-Nor
Games begin.

Unlike most high school seniors, Marina Valentine isn’t
sweating college (she’s outlawed from even applying), the prom (she has her
dream date…possibly), or graduation (though surviving to rock the ill-fitting
gown is iffy). No, she’s a little preoccupied with succeeding as a walking myth
post-graduation. So, when Marina
awakens as the one and only Siren Savior, she thinks the tide is about to turn
on the merbitch’s mer-psycho family. Unfortunately, she has issues with her
flighty Savior powers, and the timing couldn’t be worse. For with the arrival
of a feared foe, comes the promise of a disastrous year…and that’s an
understatement.
For years, mythological beings have awaited the fulfillment
of a mysterious prophecy involving Merpeople, Normals, an epic clash, and a
wish that could forever change one group’s destiny. But the real trouble begins
when an assassin known as The Dealer starts sending her cryptic messages
written on potentially lethal playing cards.
The Dealer makes one thing very clear: someone Marina
loves will die. Now, she must find The Dealer before he (or she) finds his victim.
But with everyone either a suspect or a target, how will Marina
be able to uncover the truth before time runs out?
Not even the Siren Savior in all her power can prepare for
the devastating answers.
Someone wicked walks among them.

Heartbreak usually requires time to heal. For Marina Valentine, however,
time has other plans: like sticking her with a shiny, stubborn
accessory, sending her on a surprising date with someone other than Troy
Tombolo, and introducing her lips to kisses that could save or destroy
everything and everyone.
Marina and the rest of the Mer-Nor gang must find a way to push through the grief caused by The Dealer, for their next mission will take them on a dangerous, scandal-filled journey that may very well be the most significant to date: hunt down the evidence they need to prove once and for all that the tyrannical King Zale breached the water pact.
But with the shocking identity of The Dealer and overwhelming guilt weighing heavily on her, Marina struggles with frightening emotional urges and begins to question whether she is truly strong enough to succeed as the all-important Siren Savior.
Marina is in more danger than ever before—even inside the familiar study with her trusted friends—because unbeknownst to her, someone has been lurking about, waiting for the chance to undo everything the Mer-Nor gang has achieved…and with the Siren Savior’s doubt growing, that person’s chance has finally arrived.

Marina Valentine is one future time-traveling trip away from
putting the final trident in King Zale’s reign. The future, however, has a dire
message for the Savior: She is one decision away from costing everyone
everything.
Marina doesn’t
want the burden of some unknown decision, nor does she want to learn of yet
another sneaky trick by King Zale. All she wants to do is focus on her trip
with Troy to retrieve the last soul stealing stone—a trip that will not only
take them to wondrous, mysterious places, but will bring them closer than she
ever dreamed possible.
Unfortunately for Marina Valentine, burdens and Zale tricks
are part of the job description.
Only this time, the burden has never been heavier and the
trick has never been more destructive.
