A dapper vampire. A sullen merman. Two heirs to a great conflict—and each needs to claim a beloved to become his kindred’s champion.

High school senior Ember Goodwin never had a sister, but after her mom’s remarriage, she now has two. The eldest is no stranger to her—Ivy is a witty girl in her grade who’s almost never spoken to the shy bookworm before—but she’s surprised to find the popular girl quite amiable. Their burgeoning friendship is tested, however, when Dean Horne, a pale, besuited charmer, shows interest in them both and plans to reveal his appetite for blood to the one who’ll stand by his side.

Seventeen-year-old Ivy Sheppard is tired of splitting her time between her dad’s and her mom’s, particularly when her dad uproots their lives to move them in with his new wife and step-daughter. Used to rolling with her parents’ whims, she tries to make the best of it and befriend her nerdy new step-sister. Her hectic life grows more unwieldy when she catches the eye of junior Calder Poole, whom she swears she sees swap well-toned legs for a pair of fins during a dip in a lake. Now she’s fending off suitors left and right, all while trying to get to the bottom of the strange happenings in her town.

The first book in the Blood, Bloom, & Water series sets family against family and friend against friend as an epic, ancient war comes to a head in a supposedly sleepy suburb.

My Rating: 5 Stars

My Recommendation: High

What a book! From the first words I was captured and dragged into this unique magical story. The writing is well crafted and easy to follow, at no point did I fell lost or confused. It's told in dual POV, so we get both sides to this conflict, and it made the story all the more engaging and special.

This is going to be a series to look out for, and I highly recommend you get your hands on this book. It's a bark away form the normal YA formula, it's fast pace action, interning drama and of course the struggle both girls have to try and do what they believe is right, without taring the family apart.

Take my high recommendation that you will fell for this book, and have it on your obsession list.

Happy Reading
