This is the prequel to Thicker than Water.
Wind and Water is a sweet novella. JL Brunell writes in that same fun way that brings you in on the first book. I really enjoyed learning more about Lea's parents and finding out how her story began.
JL Brunell also shows you that strong heroines are not just a pretty face!
I'm looking forward to the next book in the series!

I read this again because I wanted to read the whole series together since Muddy Water was just released.
Wind and Water is a beautifully written prequel to Thicker Than Water. The story of Lea’s parents provides a lot of insight into the decisions they made and why Lea grew up not knowing her family’s legacy. I immediately liked Rose and Milo! It was also fun seeing characters from the main novel sprinkled throughout the story. I love a good series and this is one with a unique plot, intriguing characters, and a great love story!

This was a short and sweet story about love at first sight. I am intrigued about this world, especially the magic! I read this before starting the series since it's a prequel, and I'm sure the series will be delightful!
