More Description"The Lily's Splendor" tells the story of a young woman who uncovers the secret about who she really is, her ties to the world of mermaids and faeries, and the love that blossoms between her and the Prince of the Sea.Seventeen-year-old Kyra Derketo's life takes a drastic turn after the accident that caused her mother to disappear in the ocean. As if losing her mother were not enough, her father sinks into depression and dies a year later. With both her parents gone, Kyra leaves her home in New Zealand to live with her grandmother in the U.S. But Kyra was unprepared for the disbelieving discoveries she would make that would unveil the truth about who she is; that she is far from being an ordinary human.In the island of Nantucket, Kyra meets Henry, a merman prince. Drawn by Kyra's beauty and powerful charm, Henry can see that she is neither human nor a mermaid but a Mystical Water Lily. Kyra's kind possesses potent power that lures men to them, and it is their power and beauty that has them always being hunted by the Adaros, the most malevolent mermaids of the seas.Kyra is the first Water Lily to be seen after so many years which puts her in grave danger as her enemies emerge to hunt her down and possibly even bring a second great war against the merfolk. Henry, however, will not allow any harm to happen to Kyra, vowing to protect her with his life.
