The Siren by Kiera Cass

 


Love is a risk worth taking.

Years ago, Kahlen was rescued from drowning by the Ocean. To repay her debt, she has served as a Siren ever since, using her voice to lure countless strangers to their deaths. Though a single word from Kahlen can kill, she can’t resist spending her days on land, watching ordinary people and longing for the day when she will be able to speak and laugh and live freely among them again.

Kahlen is resigned to finishing her sentence in solitude…until she meets Akinli. Handsome, caring, and kind, Akinli is everything Kahlen ever dreamed of. And though she can’t talk to him, they soon forge a connection neither of them can deny…and Kahlen doesn’t want to.

Falling in love with a human breaks all the Ocean’s rules, and if the Ocean discovers Kahlen’s feelings, she’ll be forced to leave Akinli for good. But for the first time in a lifetime of following the rules, Kahlen is determined to follow her heart.
 


I had read other books by this author, so I thought this would be a quick listen while I waited for my other books to come from their holds.   I admit this one took a little more time to get into. The beginning of the story was hard to follow and trying to keep the characters straight.  But in the end it turned into a better story than I thought. It was a bit predicable in my opinion, but it would make a cute little chick flick movie if it ever got made.
