I t was fantastic. Never a slow moment and you were always kept wondering. It had an expected but unexpected twist and I truly loved her work can't wait to read others :)

There was a level of complexity and depth that was missing, that made it difficult to really be pulled in to this story.

I wish I could give 1/2 stars, then I'd give this 3 1/2 stars. It's quite different from other PC Cast books, and maybe I just need to get used to this Goddess universe...

The story of The Little Mermiad. It's a lot more realistic than the Disney version, but some aspects of the story were boring.

'Goddess of the Sea' is the first book in P.C. Cast's 'Goddess Summoning' series. I have read the entire series, and every single book is excellent. They all have P.C. Cast's flare and beautiful writing style. This series, unlike her 'House of Night' series is geared toward adults. The book itself is beautiful, with rich characters and descriptions. The book is packed with mythology, magic, the paranormal, and a delicious merman. Also, bust out the tissues, this is the first romance novel that has ever made me bawl like a baby, sad but true.
The plot moves at a fast, fluid pace, and contains enough action and magic to keep you on your toes. There is some time-travel as well, which is awesome, and the heroine is an Air Force sergeant which is super cool. I hadn't read a book with a military women as a heroine before, and I love it in this book. There is also a little bit of sensuality with enough heat to make you turn on the air conditioning at full blast. It sizzles.
The characters are my favorite part in this book. CC is a strong modern women who gets thrust back in to Medieval England; dealing with Medieval men when you were born past suffrage does not go over so well. Dylan, the male protagonist, is absolutely amazing. He is literally the perfect guy, he just happens to have a tail...most of the time at least. I was head over heels in love with him, no joke, he is amazing.
This book will keep you on the edge of your seat and gripping the book like your life depends on it. The action is awesome. The deities are awesome. The characters and setting are awesome. There is not one non-amazing thing about this book. Everyone (over 18 or with parental permission) should read it.

Adding a review for this as I've rated it without a review.
I remember loving this book. I don't recall exact details of books (I read a lot) but I want to reread this. I own this on Kindle and this is one of the series I was in love with by P.C Cast.

Loved this novel! Such a good story! But I totally knew she was going to end up with Adam the moment he came into the picture.
It was filled with plot twists that I wasn't expecting, but I'm glad CC and Adam eventually end up together. I got so emotionally invested in this book, when things didn't initially work out as I'd hoped towards the end my heart just broke for CC.
I sat there and thought "the author can't leave it like this," but she doesn't and the two lovers are reunited at the end. I did think that I would have preferred if they had stayed in the mermaid world, but I am still satisfied with the ending.

3.5/5
I wish this had taken place under the sea, I was not a fan of the medieval setting the MC gets taken to. I also didn't understand why she had to ve transported back in time instead of a more fantastical medieval world. It just felt more like a court drama since there is little magic used, besides transforming into mermaid/human. I will say this is a good book for fans of light fantasy, romance books.
