Isla has never been normal. For as long as she can remember she's felt other people's emotions, she's an empath. Keeping people out has always been the easiest option before the emotions become too strong. But when she moves to a small coastal town with her grandma and sister, Mae, something strange surfaces. She realizes the town has a darker history than anyone is truly aware of. And she is the only one who can figure out what it is and how to help.

A New Tide Rising
[COMPLETED] After completing her task of going to ground to bring her sister back home, a mermaid - Amaya - is drawn back to the small island of Linda Cove to find a young woman with whom she had a brief encounter during her time there. She yearns to find out if the feelings she experienced for this human were real, or just a passing infatuation borne out of intrigue for an unfamiliar creature. ***** This is a companion story to What the Tide Brings, in which Amaya's sister - Kaelin - is rescued by a human boy and harbored by his unknowing family, but Kaelin has a secret that could bring danger to her newfound friend. I suggest reading What the Tide Brings first for continuity's sake, but this story can be read on its own. It's pretty much self contained, except for a few references to characters and events from What the Tide Brings. *****Complete
