On the edge of growing up, during a summer that is the hottest on record, Hailey and Claire are discovering that life can take an unpredictable course, friendship is forever, and magic can be found in the most unexpected places. Now, as this mythological yet very real being starts to fade in the burning August sun, a rescue is begun. There in the depths is a mysterious and beautiful creature with a sharp tongue and a broken heart: a mermaid named Aquamarine who has left her six sisters to search for love on land. Hailey and Claire are spending their last summer together when they discover something at the bottom of the murky pool at the Capri Beach Club.

A luminous tale of nostalgia and enchantment, for readers both young and old. A New York Times bestseller?now a major motion picture.
