Description
Mermaids on the Jersey Shore? Waves of Pleasure, the first novel in this contemporary erotic romance trilogy, introduces readers to the mermaid magic of Melusine’s Daughters.
Mermaid Lyria is her people’s most powerful healer. Her life is dictated by responsibilities and requirements and has been ever since she was a teen when the bracelet with the Stone of Clarity came to her, one of three stones imbued with great power and magic by her ancestor Melusine. However, Lyria’s well ordered, if less than happy, existence has been shaken now that she and the bracelet are in danger. Fiero, a Sea Dragon – part merfolk, part Kelpie – is determined to find all three bracelets, unite them into Melusine’s Band and rule the Oceans and all who dwell there.
Needing to keep the band – and herself – safe, Lyria decides to hide where no one would think to look for a mermaid. The Jersey Shore.
Drew Crawford, at a loss for where to go with his life after the betrayal of a friend and business partner, has returned to the Jersey Shore where he grew up. It’s the last place he wants to be, but he needs to regroup and decide his next steps so helping out the man who raised him seems like a good thing to do in the meantime. But as soon as he can, he’s leaving again. This time hopefully for good.
Lyria knows not to trust humans. Drew knows not to trust anyone. When they meet, both think it’s only for pleasure and fun. Temporary. But fun becomes passion and passion becomes more, and as their connection grows stronger, trust and acceptance will change both of their futures in ways they cannot imagine.

Featured Reviews
I received a free copy from NetGalley; this is my honest review.
- One star off for editing: "his eyes were shit" vs. shot..., whole paragraph copied again elsewhere, sister vs. cousin, "wonderful" too many times.
- Lots of sex scenes for a 5-day story. Not a problem. Drew and Lyria are both considerate lovers.
- It's good to have the legend explained right at the beginning in one shot instead of bit by bit.
- Good love story, believable (outside the magic), real situations between people.
- Other than the sex scenes there were not many descriptions; we could have used more about the boardwalk, the people, the clothing, the food, etc.
- Looking forward to the next book in this series.
This book was a nice diverting read. The back story was interesting and the characters were engaging but it could have been a fantastic read with a little bit more attention to detail with the editing and spell checking. Looking forward to seeing where the story goes from here.
