This is a little mermaid retelling and follows the main character Lira who is a siren.
In this book sirens are very dark and dangerous creatures who kill people and rip out there hearts. Lira is especially violent and sent on a mission, for which she is given legs by her mother, the queen, to retrieve the heart of prince Elian, who is a siren killer.
By the way the main character is introduced, I was excepting some bad ass, witty killer. False advertisement because deep down she was just a girl who wanted to escape her life, which I didn’t mind but she just got boring. The romance was a slow burn enemies to lovers but it served no purpose.
I think the only aspect that I appreciated was the Prince and his crew, the bond and witty banter the shared. Plus the similarities Elian and Lira shared in terms of them both wanting to escape the shackles of there lives.
The ending was very rushed and overall it was a story with a simple plot and not unlike any other ya fantasy novel.
