Idk about this age gap...he was 24 when he fell for her and she was 16 at the time!!! This is like a grown man falling for a high schooler!!

I don't like this romance. The mmc's inner thoughts are as follows
"He's loved Locklyn all her life. First, as a little sister. Then as a friend and companion. And now as the merwoman he wants to cherish and be with all his life." Ummm... it's weird!!!

What the frick?? 💀 I don't mind age gaps as long as they're both adults.

Sorry, how I wrote that, I realize came not exactly what I meant. Just in general, I mean that I don't mind age gaps if they're both adults. But yes, that bothers me as well that he fell in love with her when she was a minor. Wait, is he the mmc in this story?

Wait! whAt?! 💀 Oh, heck no!! I'm not sure now if I want to read this book anymore. Please, tell me she knows about this!
AyeLikeBooks wrote: "Wait! whAt?! 💀 Oh, heck no!! I'm not sure now if I want to read this book anymore.

It's like both of them think their love is one sided but they both are in love with each other.
Oh. That's confusing. I don't like that she doesn't know he's loved her since she was 16. This book sounds really weird. Not the type of romance I like. I'm really glad I found this out beforehand. Thanks for letting me know all this!

Okay, I'll go check it out. Thanks again!
