I am confident in saying it now, this is my favorite book of the year. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I definately would. Lunamare is the first book in the Luna Duet by Pepper Winters. It's the coming-of-age story of Neri, who at the age of 12 "fished" 16-year-old Aslan out of the sea she loved so much. Neri was a force to be reconned with and wise beyond her years; claiming to her family that Aslan was hers and eventually would be her husband soon after they saved him. Aslan finds a home and life with Neri and her family but must live under the radar as he was running from his homeland in Turkey when the Taylor family saved him off the coast of Australia. Working side by side with them on their boat and assisting with all their research but never venturing into the sea again. Aslan was warned early on by Neri's father that he must never look at or love Neri more than a sister but as the two get older, they can not deny the pull they feel toward each other. This story will have your emotions all over the place. It will both warm your soul and then turn around and break it. The love that Aslan and Neri have for each other is earth-shattering but the way that Pepper conveys this with her words and story just makes it beyond magical. I can't even express how much her writing moved me in this story. It's (this story) just full of so much beauty I can't even begin to adequately describe it. This story is just simply the best. Luckily, we don't have to wait long for the second book and see where the story of Neri and Aslan continues
