Secret magics, myths from the sea, kidnapped princes, oh my! This was a fun read, though nothing was particularly surprising about it. I loved the characters and was engaged by their plight at every stage. I didn't realize how many sisters were discussed in the book, which lead me to drawing the worst conclusions about what was coming! Overall, I would recommend this read if you love mermaids, fairytale love stories, or adventure.

Athlen laughed and kissed him again. Tal sank into it—happy, loved, and unafraid.

There is something so special to be found in fantasy worlds that wholly embrace differences that our own world does not accept.

In Deeper Waters is a chaotic, life-threatening adventure of trials, tribulations, and thrills galore. We see magic, pirate, mermaids, shapeshifters, death and murder and burning ships. And the two main characters just so happen to be two boys falling in love, with complete and utter acceptance from everyone around them, because there are no standards to attraction.

It was so refreshing to read such a riveting tale from Lukens, and find solace in the strongly highlighted romantic relationship between Tal and Athlen in the same manner cishet people are afforded by most books. I adored every moment.
