"I was smoking on Shellfish Bridge, thinking about how I had completely screwed up my life, when an idea occurred to me; what if I jumped?" What happens when you make a suicidal jump off a bridge and everything goes completely wrong? Ask Tarabelle Johansson, an 18 year old girl that wanted to end her life, even though it had barely begun. Despite having to leave behind her older brother Ridge, Tara saw no good reason to stay alive much longer. Her mother has been deceased since she was nine and her father was a jobless drunk that had fun abusing Tara in every single way. The day Tara finally "quits" her job, she also decides to quit her life the easy way, by jumping off a bridge. But when she jumps off, nothing happens. She was supposed to die...only she didn't. The young woman was saved by the most unlikely creature possible, a mermaid. Instead of swimming Tara back to the surface to live on her life, the sea-girl decides to turn Tarabelle into a mermaid. Now, not only is Tara forced to live in an underwater kingdom full of human fish and has no idea how to adapt, but she also falls for the prince (soon to be king) Taiven. But the mermen is already engaged, and Tara finds out that his bride to be Adara is not what she appears. While all of this happens under sea, back on land Tarabelle's older brother Ridge, attempts to find out what exactly happened to her. He is convinced that his little sister would not commit suicide...or would she? This is the dazzling story about a girl who's life got turned upside down the day she wanted to die. This is the beginning of A Mermaid Tale.

Well, things have certainly gone wrong for Tarabelle Johansson. Taiven is missing, she needs to rule an entire merkingdom on her own, the Upper Kingdom could be invaded at any moment and to top it all off, she's pregnant. Yes, the young woman certainly has her work cut out for her. In this dramatic sequel, many new characters appear including Gabrielle Caslynn, a half-mermaid...of the Deep. She is part of a secret plan to build an army of half-breeds that dark merman Auron has to destroy the Upper Kingdom. But sadly, Gabrielle finds her way into the ocean too early and unexplainable changes happen to her. Yes, she turns into a mermaid, but unlike Tara, she is on her own during her transformation. Not only is it incredibly painful, but after she has no idea where to go, what to do and who to trust. When Gabrielle is taken prisoner by the Upper Kingdom along with her brother Greg, Tara quickly sees that the young boy and the young girl may just be the help she needs to rescue Taiven before an even bigger war breaks between both merkinds.
