From New York Times bestseller Katy Regnery comes a new twist on a beloved fairytale.
In this modern retelling of The Little Mermaid, a fisherman's daughter from an Outer Banks island untouched by time, meets the son of the North Carolina governor at a fancy party she helps to cater.
Laire, who wants more from life than her little island can offer, is swept away by wealthy, sophisticated Erik, who is, in turn, entranced by her naiveté and charm. The two spend a whirlwind summer together that ends on the knife-point of heartbreak and forces them to go their separate ways.
Years later, when fate finds them together once again, they will discover the terrifying depth of the secrets they kept from each other, and learn that shattered hearts can only be healed by a love that willfully refuses to die.
All novels Katy Regnery’s ~a modern fairytale~ collection are written as fundraisers. 10% of the e-book sales for in March and April 2017 will be donated.

Review by Gia:
I really like A Modern Fairytale series. All the books in the
series can be read as standalone. I haven't read all of them, I just
pick and choice the ones I want to read. When I saw Don't Speak was
based on The Little Mermaid, I knew I wanted to read it. I loved The
Little Mermaid and I loved Don't Speak. A funny little side note, I
was wearing my Little Mermaid pjs while reading Don't Speak and I didn't
even plan it that way. I loved Laire. She's a fisherman’s daughter and they live on a island. Live on the island is different. Her sister on focused and marriage and babies. Laire wants more in life, she wants to go to college.
Erik is the governor’s son. He's from a rich political family. His life is planned out for him, he's to attend law school and work for his father's firm. Erik has had a very different life than Laire. Their lives cross paths when Laire delivers crabs to Erik's house. The chemistry between the two is great. There worlds collide. I loved seeing Laire grow and learn that there is more to life then the island. This a great story. If your a Little Mermaid fan, you'll see little things that will bring you back to the original Little Mermaid story but it's not a retelling of that story, it has it's own story.

Author Bio
Twenty-five books later, Katy claims authorship of the multi-titled, New York Times and USA Today Blueberry Lane Series, which follows the English, Winslow, Rousseau, Story, and Ambler families of Philadelphia; the six-book, bestselling ~a modern fairytale~ series; and several other standalone novels and novellas.
Katy’s first modern fairytale romance, The Vixen and the Vet, was nominated for a RITA® in 2015 and won the 2015 Kindle Book Award for romance. Katy’s boxed set, The English Brothers Boxed Set, Books #1–4, hit the USA Today bestseller list in 2015, and her Christmas story, Marrying Mr. English, appeared on the list a week later. In May 2016, Katy’s Blueberry Lane collection, The Winslow Brothers Boxed Set, Books #1-4, became a New York Times E-book bestseller.
In 2016, Katy signed a print-only agreement with Spencerhill Press. As a result, her Blueberry Lane paperback books will now be distributed to brick and mortar bookstores all over the United States.
Katy lives in the relative wilds of northern Fairfield County, Connecticut, where her writing room looks out at the woods, and her husband, two young children, two dogs, and one Blue Tonkinese kitten create just enough cheerful chaos to remind her that the very best love stories begin at home.
