**A USA Today Recommended Series!**She’ll risk it all to be with the man she loves… Don’t miss PARTING WORLDS, a fantasy romance from bestselling author Kaitlyn Davis that reimagines the classic fairy tale of The Little Mermaid.“I know humans like to start these sorts of stories with ‘once upon a time,’ but I’m worried that’s setting the stage for false hopes. Because we don’t all live, and we … stage for false hopes. Because we don’t all live, and we aren’t all happy. Not every curse can be broken, after all.”
Humans are dangerous. That’s the lesson faeries are taught as soon as their flower petals unfurl, welcoming them into the world. It’s the first thing Aerewyn remembers the priestesses telling her as a young girl. Humans are dangerous—don’t show them your magic and never cross into their lands.
Why then, when she stumbles upon a human boy in the woods, does she find him so intriguing?
His blue eyes don’t shine with malice. His smile doesn’t menace. His laughter is as warm as the sun against her cheeks. And when she later discovers he’s been knocked unconscious in a storm, injured and alone in the forest, the only thing he seems in danger of is dying.
So she saves his life—a single act that will change the fate of both their worlds…
*This is the fourth book in Once Upon a Curse, a series of interconnected stand-alone novels all set in the same fantasy universe.

Amazing read and retelling of the little mermaid. I really enjoyed this read from start to end. Great writting and storyline with unique characters. Aerewyn is told that humans are dangerous but, she saves a boy from dying. What will happen to her? Well, you have to get this amazing story to find out. I love this fairytale and so will you.
I received a free copy of this book. This is my honest and voluntarily review.
Aerewyn has been told all her life how bad humans were, how dangerous they were, never to trust to them ever but most of all never ever cross over into their world. But Aerewyn like any young girl when she is told not to do something is then very curious and must see for herself if what she has been told since she was a little girl is true or not.
Aerewyn talks her sister Nymia, against her better judgement of course into cross over into the human world to investigate things a little further on her own. Aerewyn is a very inquisitive little girl and needs answers of her own not someone else’s. So Aerewyn and Nymia cross worlds and end up the human world and while they are there Aerewyn meets a boy a human boy that is unlike other humans. He is not malicious or dangerous no he is kind and a very beautiful person inside and out.
Aerewyn and Nymia’s venture into the human world just may cause Aerewyn more than she is willing to pay or give up if they are caught. Their worlds, human and fae alike may change as they know it and it may not be the way they would want or like. Not only could it turn out to be dangerous for both humans and fae Aerewyn may end up losing more than she ever thought possible. Will Aerewyn find love? Is Erick the boy she believes him to be? Will he betray her? Can she trust him? Who is this Erick?
Parting Worlds is a fast paced read once I picked it up there was no way I could lay it down until I had read the last world. Parting Worlds is the fourth book in the Once Upon a Curse world and I have read them all and enjoyed each and every one tremendously. I have enjoyed each and every fairy tell retelling. I have loved each and every world as well as all the characters. I have loved watching them become the people they are and how they all ways want to help someone else.
I highly recommend any book in this world, the Once Upon a Curse world. What and amazing and incredible world it is.
