Book Summary:
Calder White lives in
the cold, clear waters of Lake Superior, the only brother in a family of
murderous mermaids. To survive, Calder and his sisters prey on humans,
killing them to absorb their energy. But this summer the underwater clan
targets Jason Hancock out of pure revenge. They blame Hancock for their
mother's death and have been waiting a long time for him to return to
his family's homestead on the lake. Hancock has a fear of water, so to
lure him in, Calder sets out to seduce Hancock's daughter, Lily. Easy
enough—especially as Calder has lots of practice using his irresistable
good looks and charm on ususpecting girls. Only this time Calder screws
everything up: he falls for Lily—just as Lily starts to suspect that
there's more to the monsters-in-the-lake legends than she ever imagined.
And just as his sisters are losing patience with him.
