**SECOND BOOK IN SERIES**
Nerina and her friend Ryan thought that they'd stopped all of the mermaid trouble in their lives and were ready to carry on with their lives as normal. Or, as normal as you can get as a mermaid.
However, Nerina's grandmother falls ill and they all fly to the mainland to take care of her in her little house by the lake. There, they discover that there are not only mermaids who live in places other than the ocean, but even more curses and spells that need to be untangled and diffused. With the help of some newfound friends (and enemies), Ryan and Nerina plunge back into an adventure they never thought they'd ever experience.
