About this listen

A dapper vampire. A sullen merman. Two heirs to a great conflict—and each needs to claim a beloved to become his kindred’s champion.

High school senior Ember Goodwin never had a sister, but after her mom’s remarriage, she now has two. The eldest is no stranger to her—Ivy is a witty girl in her grade who’s almost never spoken to the shy bookworm before—but she’s surprised to find the popular girl quite amiable. Their burgeoning friendship is tested, however, when Dean Horne, a pale, besuited charmer, shows interest in them both and plans to reveal his appetite for blood to the one who’ll stand by his side.

Seventeen-year-old Ivy Sheppard is tired of splitting her time between her dad’s and her mom’s, particularly when her dad uproots their lives to move them in with his new wife and step-daughter. Used to rolling with her parents’ whims, she tries to make the best of it and befriend her nerdy new step-sister. Her hectic life grows more unwieldy when she catches the eye of junior Calder Poole, whom she swears she sees swap well-toned legs for a pair of fins during a dip in a lake. Now she’s fending off suitors left and right, all while trying to get to the bottom of the strange happenings in her town.

The first book in the Blood, Bloom, & Water series sets family against family and friend against friend as an epic, ancient war comes to a head in a supposedly sleepy suburb.

Listeners are saying this fast-paced YA paranormal romance urban fantasy will "grip you and keep you wanting more." Fans of Bella Forrest's A Shade of Vampire and Hotbloods, Amanda Hocking's Watersong series, and Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga will dive right into this modern-day fairy tale about high schoolers swept up in a world of vampires, mermaids, and fairies.

Did Not Care for Narrator

This book would have been Sooo much better with a good narrator, but with this one you couldn't tell when a different chwas speaking because it was all the same voice like someone just reading out loud. Very Disheartening

Intriguing paranormal high school romance

Can't wait to read the next book! As with most paranormal books, a decent amount of world building has to take place. It was done in an interesting way that kept me thinking. Definitely moving on to book 2 immediately.

I struggled at first with the narration, but by the end I was fine. I think that sometimes changing narrators from book to book, and with the speed that I listen to books, it does take a little while for my ears to adjust. That's nothing against the narrator, it's just my ears. That being said, I think this narrator may speak a little faster than others, which is definitely not a problem. I thought there was a good variety of voices for the different characters.

Note: clean with no implied adult activity

Note: Ends on a cliffhanger!

Too YA for me

I've read and listened to many YA Fantasy books, and this one is not even "good of kind." The characters are insipid and the is world-building chaotic. As the story line meanders along, you just cannot relate or even sympathize with any of the characters. My favorite is always the 90-year-old vampire boyfriend who talks and acts like an immature teenager...

this book would grab the interest of young readers

This book is intended for young readers with a topic they are interested in, a setting they can relate to, and language meant for them. it is not the subject matter I usually read, but a friend asked me to read it and review it. I found it interesting to read about today's teens lives and be reminded of my words, today's kids are not so different from all kids, some good, some community and family based, some respectful, and a few who who aren't. happy reading young readers. I happy to know reading for enjoyment is alive and well.
