Fish Out of Water (Fred the Mermaid, Book 3) by MaryJanice Davidson

Fish Out of Water (Fred the Mermaid, Book 3) Fish Out of Water by MaryJanice Davidson


red the Mermaid has taken the bait and chosen to date Artur, Prince of the Black Sea, over human marine biologist Thomas. And just in time. The existence of the Undersea Folk is no longer a secret, and someone needs to keep them from floundering in the media spotlight. Fred has all the right skills for that job, but has a hard time when her real father surfaces and tries to overthrow Artur’s regime.



My review


rating: 5 of 5 stars
I am so sad to know that this is the last Fred the Mermaid book. I love Fred and totally enjoyed this series. In this final book Fred has to help Arthur and his father try to figure out what is happening to the Undersea Folk. Lots of them have been disappearing since their recent decision to show themselves to humans and Fred and the crew rent a mansion in Florida and begin to investigate. Add to this Fred's best friend, Jonas in the midst of his wedding plans and Fred's decision about which guy she wants to be with and you are in for a wonderful adventure. This is the MJD that I fell in love with!!

Dead Over Heels by MaryJanice Davidson

Dead Over Heels Dead Over Heels by MaryJanice Davidson


Three all-new paranormal stories of lust, laughter, and love from the New York Times bestselling author, including an original novella featuring Undead queen Betsy Taylor.

With her trademark "sassy dialogue, lusty lovemaking [and:] irreverent humor"* New York Times bestselling author MaryJanice Davidson delighted fans with her wickedly sexy and wildly funny anthology, Dead and Loving It-stories in which the worlds of the Wyndham Werewolves and Undead Queens collided. Now she returns to that sensual and irresistible after-dark realm of werewolves, vampires, and mermaids in three more original novellas--including an all-new Betsy Taylor novella.

Completely enjoyed all three stories in this book.



They were the MJD classics that I have come to know and love.



Reading about Betsy and Sinclair's honeymoon was great. I always enjoy the Wyndham Wolves and I am a huge fan of best friends falling in love. The Mermaid story was a lot of fun, especially since I just finished the two 'Fred the Mermaid' books right before reading it.



Love MJD's anthologies when I am in the mood for some fun, light reading. She always delivers.

Swimming Without a Net (Fred the Mermaid, Book 2) by MaryJanice Davidson

Swimming Without a Net (Fred the Mermaid, Book 2) Swimming Without a Net by MaryJanice Davidson


As Fred the Mermaid tries to fit in with her own kind, she finds herself hooked on both Artur, the High Prince of the undersea realm, and Thomas, a hunky marine biologist. She's also caught between two factions of merfolk: those happy with swimming under the radar-and those who want to bring their existence to the surface.

Another enjoyable Fred the Mermaid book. I do enjoy MJD's writing style. When I am in the mood for some lighthearted fun reading I can rely on her.



The ending of this book left me wanting to read the next one right away. Sadly I will have to wait till November but I will be picking it up then.

Sleeping with the Fishes (Fred the Mermaid, Book 1) by MaryJanice Davidson

Sleeping with the Fishes (Fred the Mermaid, Book 1) Sleeping with the Fishes by MaryJanice Davidson


Fred is not your ordinary mermaid. She's not blonde. She's not buxom. And she's definitely not perky. In fact, Fred can be downright cranky. And it doesn't help matters that her hair is blue.

While volunteering at the New England Aquarium, Fred learns that there are weird levels of toxins in the local seawater. A gorgeous marine biologist wants her help investigating. So does her merperson ruler, the High Prince of the Black Sea. You'd think it would be easy for a mermaid to get to the bottom of things. Think again.

This was a quick, fun, typical MJD read. Loved the characters and the storyline. Looking forward to more in the series.
