Naiya's Wish - Pretty Bookshelf

Women’s fiction meets fantasy in this retelling of The Nixie of the Mill-pond.

A Naiad makes an impossible wish, sending a ripple of effect through the land and binding to her magic the people from the nearby mill, and the village beyond. Unexpected twists of fate tie Naiya to Hilda, the miller’s unhappy wife and, Amina, the baker’s youngest daughter.

Amina is flung into a daring adventure when Naiya’s wish ensnares the love of Amina’s life. Can she find a way to save Phillip from the watery depths? And what will she have to sacrifice to do so?

I WANT THIS

★★★★
I loved the way the story developed and how different points of view were presented to the reader. This is a HEA story, even for the nix with a surprise twist in the end. Recommended for lovers of transformation stories, coming-of-age rare fairytales and slow burn clean romance (this is more of a side-thought).
Amazon review

★★★★★
It is a well thought out story, with believable decisions made by the characters in it. The chaos following those decisions is an entertaining read.

★★★★★
I laughed, I cried, I was enchanted. Most of all, I felt that I was there, carried along with the story. How do we define good and bad? What if the thing that is ‘good’ does more harm than the thing that is ‘bad’? And what is the most important thing in the universe? Is this different for each person? This story answered its own questions for itself and the characters involved. But it left me with questions about the world in which I live every day.
