they were armed (see note below). Conservatively 36,749 seamen and women were lost by enemy action in I waited soooo long to read this. the cover captured me the moment I laid my eyes on it. I was afraid & I'm glad it didn't disappoint. There’s more,” Shay said, shifting slightly. Shay was the royal house’s most stalwart soldier. She’d followed Garrett into skirmishes and squalls, protected Tal as a child, and earned a seat at the royal table with her unerring bravery. To see her unsettled twisted Tal’s stomach even more. “There is something you should come see.” Her gaze cut to Tal and she stopped short, her eyes narrowing. “You should come as well, Your Highness.” Sweet is a word that encompasses this story to a T. The characters have such heart, its truly hard not to love them. Tal’s compassion was infectious, and Athlen’s curiosity put a smile on my face from the very start. The romance was heartwarming and genuine; Tal and Athlen’s relationship is definitely what makes this book so wonderful (as well as Tal’s bond with his brothers)!

Tal didn't know what awaited them beyond this moment, but this was the chance he thought he'd missed. He wouldn't miss it again. The characters are also super disappointing! I know they're young (16) but can't we please get just an ounce of character development? I don't want to go into spoilers but the only development just felt painfully cliché and honestly, badly brought up. Ngl. The entire time I read this book I’m like “this would be so hot if it wasn’t YA” the angst between them!! I’m like. Urghhhhh. I don’t know if In Deeper Waters is intended to be the first in a series, but I’d love to see this world and these characters that Lukens created again. Athlen jumped to his feet and seized Tal’s hand in both of his own. Tal resisted the urge to jerk away, instead stilling, muscles tense as Athlen turned Tal’s palm over in inspecting it with a somber intensity. With a furrowed brow, he ran the calloused pads of his fingertips over the smooth skin between Tal’s fingers and along the underside of his wrist, his touch unusually cool. No one had touched Tal like this before, with impropriety and wonder, not even his family, and his heart pounded in his ears. Athlen lifted Tal’s hand closer, his breath warm and rhythmic on Tal’s skin, before he pressed a kiss to the palm. His eyelashes fluttered against Tal’s fingers, and Tal exhaled in staccato.I’m Tal,” he said. Not Prince Taliesin of Harth. Not Tally, youngest son of the queen. Not Tal, last mage of the royal line. “I’m going to be looking after you.” over a quarter (27%) of the total number of merchant sailors lost their lives during World War Two – a huge figure compared

overall, i was just really disappointed; the whole book just felt kinda underdeveloped. i know what the author was going for, it just didn’t hit the mark for me. I didn’t really have prior knowledge of the plot going in—I simply loved the themes hinted to in the synopsis and had major heart-eyes for that book cover. To be honest, I think a limited knowledge of the story probably worked in my favour, as I was able to be wowed and excited as the action and romance unfolded. I’m afraid it doesn’t work like that when it comes to chests of royally marked gold. Why are you bound?” Also, not a big fan of the romance. Very insta-lovey (you've known this guy for 2 days and he's the love of your life??), which is something I really hate in fiction. If you're fine with it, you'll probably enjoy the book a lot more than I did, at least. It was still sort of cute at times, I guess. I didn't hate it as much as I hated the romance in The Friend Scheme (idk if that's even possible tbh) so that's something.

I love how they just accepted Athlen in. Honestly every person in this book, including the villains, was just perfect. They had character and personality whether it be good or cruel. It just worked.

Understand?” there were things I didn't expect & I was thrilled to see it, like when I found out it had a retelling vibes. (not exactly a solid retelling tho, just having some elements, but a fresh new story) But it’s not long before Athlen turns up on dry land, very much alive, and as charming – and secretive – as ever. When Tal is kidnapped in a plot to reveal his powers and destroy his family, Athlen might be his only hope. But can Tal trust him?

Tal hated the sea. He hated this trip. He hated that his older brother would tease him endlessly if he found him retching over the side. Fine,” Garrett said, draping his arm over Tal’s shoulders. “Don’t look so sour. I understand. You’re sixteen and don’t want to be babied by your older siblings.” Lexile ® HL740L The Lexile reading levels have been certified by the Lexile developer, MetaMetrics® My brother is correct. We will not hurt you, but we’re not releasing you until we know what happened to this ship and where,” Garrett said, holding up the coin and refocusing the conversation, “this came from.” I broke the fetter. He said he’d tell us about the gold and the ship if we freed him. He told me how the ship was destroyed beforehand.” Garrett’s expression remained unchanged. “He’s been adrift for three days,” Tal continued, feeling the inexorable need to justify himself, to reassure Garrett of his decisions and his use of magic. “He needs food and water and—”

I most definitely was not having fun at the expense of those I love. I am Prince Taliesin of Harth, fourth child of Queen Carys, and you will obey my command. Is that clear?”
