Nerina has lived all her life as a mermaid, fascinated by humans and land but also repulsed by sex and unable to understand love. Her curiosity gets her captured by a human male intent on awakening her lust and turning her human. But Nerina doesn’t believe the legend is real and fears Kyros will kill her when he learns she can’t transform.
This work is a novella of 21,500 words which will take the average reader 1 to 2 hours to read, depending on personal reading speed. The work is "meant" to be short.
For those unfammiliar with Kitty's work, this story in many respects is more "tame" than some of her other work, but it is still erotica with a master/slave and kidnap element.

*NO Spoilers
Kitty Thomas is such a fantastic author! I have yet to be even a little disappointed in anything she has written. She just keeps dazzling me with every story she puts out.
Therefore, it is NO surprise to me that Awakening in the same footsteps of her previous novelas.
Awakening is definitely a tamer story by Kitty, in a away more romantic than her other works, but never compromising her style or genre while being compelling and hypnotic just the same.
I feel that if you ever wanted to read a Kitty Thomas story, this is the perfect place to start!
Danielle from ALPHA Reader says:
“(Kitty) takes what would otherwise be an uncomfortable and squirm-inducing idea and crafts it into a beautiful tale of human dynamics and lust, exploring the many facets of want and craving. Divine.” – ALPHA Reader
I could have never said it better than that and I wholeheartedly agree! What are you waiting for? Go pick up Awakening right now =)

Thank you for the recommendation on where to start with this author/series. It's so hard to track down the very first book of a series sometimes.
@Kristi
Awesome! Hope you enjoy it!
It was a pleasure =D
@Midnyte
My pleasure!
Though it's not a series... It's just that genre this author writes is not for everyone and if you wanna try something different, this book of hers is a great place to start =D
