Overview
Did we evolve from the sea? Thessa Wallace, a seemingly ordinary seventeen-year-old and Junior at Manatee High is about to realize that the answer to this question will directly impact her life forever. Her obsession with mermaids and hunger for knowledge begins to reveal secrets that could change the world as we know it. Will her newfound love for a boy, who is hauntingly familiar, unlock the answers she's been seeking about her complicated past? Could these answers…save us all?
Description
Book 1 of a new series entitled, MERMAID Born and raised on Anna Maria Island, Tessa Wallace is finding it increasingly more difficult to relate to anyone…even those closest to her. On homecoming night, a traumatic discovery about her childhood sweetheart, coupled with the influence of a beautiful mermaid, compels her to take her own life. But, when she throws herself from the Cortez Bridge, she does not expect to re-emerge with super human abilities. But, Tessa soon learns that even super powers can't protect her from the woes of human strife. Heartbreak, death of loved ones, and daily drama must be resolved by the cultivation of inner strength and self-love. Thankfully, her sarcastic wit and positive outlook on life helps her face her darkest fears and uplift others, magically transforming the world around her through her example. Total annihilation from many sources threatens all life on Earth: natural disaster, greed, nuclear warfare, and rivalry between land dwellers and ancient societies beneath the sea. The omnipresent threat of an apocalyptic war drives Tessa to embrace both spiritual and physical evolution as though the fate of the world depends on it...because...it does...
