Fire: The Mermaid Legacy Book Two

In order to save the one she loves, she will have to start a war...

Just when Alexandra was getting used to the fact that she is half-mermaid, her beloved Merrick is captured by ruthless Oceanid Neith.

Neith will stop at nothing to crush Alex to his will and has only one condition of release: She must start a war against humans who are destroying the ocean so that he can become ruler of land and sea. If not, Neith promises to destroy the underwater world Alex has grown to love.

Alex is torn. She cannot fight against humans, but risks bring the fire of hell to her underwater home. Desperate and alone she roams the ocean, until she discovers that other Oceanids are prepared to fight against cruel Neith. Now Alex must become the leader she is fated to be and train an army to fight for their own freedom and that of the entire human race, before it is too late...

Natasha Hardy began writing stories when the adventure of her life had taken a gloomy twist and she discovered, that through writing she couldescape into the sun.

Her stories, are sparked by the adventures she has had in the wildly beautiful South African bush, seasoned with the adventures of the explorers who make up her ancestry, and woven through with the intrigue, and sometimes sheer madness, of living in Africa.

She now spends most of her time – happily – in a world of words, and the rest trying to keep up with her full-time doctor, part-time rock star husband and their two gorgeously mischievous little boys.

She would very much like to chat to you at natashahardybooks.com.
