"I wasn't always like this. No, I am like this because of him. Triton. Triiiiiiton." Ursula's journey begins at the age of thirteen, when her small underwater town, Muriel, is destroyed by Triton and she is forced to flee with her ten year old sister Marina to safety. Through long swims, salty tears, and whispers of magic, Ursula grows up into the cruel woman we know her as. But maybe, just maybe, it wasn't her fault. Ursula's backstory, and reasons why she became who she was.

Sixteen-year-old Mara Westray has just lost her mother, and now, being shipped off to live with the father she doesn’t know is not how she imagined grieving. She’s already counting down the days until she turns eighteen and can leave the tiny island of Swans Landing. But from the moment she steps off the ferry, nothing is as ordinary as it looks. Whispers of a haunting song on the wind make her see impossible things, and she isn’t sure she can trust her judgment about what is real and what isn’t anymore. Maybe she can’t even trust her judgment about quiet Josh Canavan, whose way of speaking in riddles and half-truths only confuses her more, luring her deeper into the secrets hidden beneath the ocean’s surface. As she tries to unravel the events that led to her mom fleeing the island sixteen years ago, Mara finds that the biggest secret of all is only the beginning. SURFACING is currently available in ebook format from Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, iTunes, Smashwords, and other ebook retailers. Available in audiobook from Audible, and in print at Amazon.
