This is a short prequel to the Mythic Kiss series. Skyla is a siren who’s lived in the ocean for thousands of years after the man she loved chose another woman. She can shift from mermaid to human at will, but she's stayed in her mermaid form for a long time. Then she’s sent to the surface by Poseidon to stop a threat that will tear the human world, and the mer world, apart.
Clay is a human detective from the US on leave in Greece. He meets Skyla, and they both feel something magical between them. They join forces to take down the bad guys and wind up with more than they bargained for.
I liked the story for the most part, but it needs a little editing. It’s predominately written in 1st POV and properly alternates between Clay and Skyla, but the author occasionally slipped into 3rd POV. There are also a few spelling errors. Other than that, it’s a good prequel for what seems like an interesting series.
