Litfuse, Thomas Nelson, and Colleen Coble are excited to announce the campaign forMermaid Moon.
Mallory's mother died fifteen years ago. But her father's last words on the phone were unmistakable: "Find . . . mother."
Shame and confusion have kept Mallory Davis from her home for the last fifteen years, but when her dad mysteriously dies on his mail boat route, she doesn't have any choice but to go back to Mermaid Point.
Mallory believes her father was murdered and childhood sweetheart Kevin O'Connor, game warden in Downeast Maine, confirms her suspicions. But Kevin is wary of helping Mallory in her search. She broke his heart---and left---without a word, years ago.
When Mallory begins receiving threats on her own life---and her beloved teenage daughter, Haylie---their search intensifies. There's a tangled web within the supposed murder, and it involves much more than what meets the eye.
As answers begin to fall into place, Mallory realizes her search is about more than finding her father's killer---it is also about finding herself again . . . and possibly about healing what was broken so long ago with Kevin. She just has to stay alive long enough to put all the pieces together.
Note: Mermaid Moon is the second in Colleen's Sunset Cove series. You can find out more about book one, The Inn at Ocean's Edge, here.

"Second chances, old flames, and startling new revelations combine to form a story filled with faith, trial, forgiveness, and redemption. Crack the cover and step in, but beware---Mermaid Point is harboring secrets that will keep you guessing."
---Lisa Wingate, bestselling author of The Sea Keeper's Daughters
"Veteran author Coble has penned another winner. Filled with mystery and romance that are unpredictable until the last page, this novel will grip readers long past when they should put their books down. Recommended to readers of contemporary mysteries."
---CBA Retailers + Resources
My thoughts: MERMAID MOON is another winner from award winning romantic suspense author, Colleen Coble. I enjoyed getting to know Mallory and Kevin. Kevin was a dear, kind man, devoted to his job, his blind daughter and Mallory. The story was fairly predictable (I figured out who the real mom was early on) but not the dad, nor the reason for the mystery until near the end. I would've liked to have seen more of Sadie in the story, too. However, that said, I did enjoy reading MERMAID MOON and while it wasn't my favorite Colleen Coble book, it wasn't my least favorite either. I enjoyed the Maine setting and Mallory's tenaciousness. I also greatly admired Kevin's devotion. A good mystery that mostly kept me guessing. 4 stars.
