Description from Goodreads:

 

Aggie is a mythological creature on a secret mission.  Lydia is a young woman from a magical family with no real powers of her own. And Daniel is a high school boy who’s made it his duty to protect his deeply troubled older brother.  Then one fateful night, their lives collide in a terrifying accident that changes them all forever. And beneath the surface, the ripple effects of the accident will have more impact than anyone could ever guess...changing not only their future, but the fate of an entire town.

Wow. This was really short and sweet. I finally got Simon, my Nook, for Christmas and ever since then I have been buying all the novellas that go with my favorite books. I had this read within an hour. It was short.

 

But I did like it. You finally are able to see what really happened to Daniel. But it leaves me with a lot of questions. Who is Lydia? Will she show up again later in the books? And Aggie? Why did she go to Capri in the first place? It does a good job explaining the accident that left the scars on Daniel, but it did open some questions for me. Maybe it was just me who was wondering about these somewhat minor questions, but whatever. It also did give us insight on what happened to Aggie and why the sirens were looking for Gemma.

My biggest question is: Is this the reason why Daniel is not affected by the sirens?

Hmmmmmm.....I hope Lydia and Delia return.

 

I read this after I read Lullaby so I knew a few things. Reading this just made me realize how much I really want Tidal to come out. It's released sometime next year. I'm not entirely sure when, but I know it is going to be a long wait. *Sigh*

 

So you can be totally okay not reading this book and just sticking to the main ones. But if you love Watersong books as much as I do, then this would be something to curve your appetite until the next one comes out.
