This young adult fantasy is ideal for readers who enjoy strong LGBTQ+ themes, mythological elements, and stories of forbidden love and bravery. Fans of tales featuring mermaids, Norse mythology, and complex female protagonists will find this novel compelling.

After rescuing maiden Ragna, mermaid Ersel realizes the life she wants is above the sea. But when Ersel's suitor catches them together, she must say goodbye or face brutal justice from the king. Desperate, Ersel makes a deal with Loki and is exiled as a result. To fix her mistakes and be reunited with Ragna, Ersel must outsmart the God of Lies.

Description

Having long wondered what lives beyond the ice shelf, nineteen-year-old mermaid Ersel learns of the life she wants when she rescues and befriends Ragna, a shield-maiden stranded on the merfolk's fortress.

But when Ersel's childhood friend and suitor catches them together, he gives Ersel a choice: Say goodbye to Ragna or face justice at the hands of the glacier's brutal king.

Determined to forge a different fate, Ersel seeks help from the divine Loki. But such deals are never straightforward, and the outcome sees her exiled from the only home and protection she's known.

To save herself from perishing in the barren, underwater wasteland and be reunited with the human she's come to love, Ersel must try to outsmart the God of Lies.

The Seafarer's Kiss by Julia Ember is a compelling tale of adventure, love, and defiance.
