A quick review for Erica Cope's YA novella prequel to Sea Swept, Riptide.

I've been excited to start this series and I was lucky enough to receive an ARC from the author. It is a quick read but it's filled with such a great basis for Sea Swept. I look forward to reading more and watching the story unravel. Erica Cope's stories never disappoint! Be ready to dive into another great read! (Pun totally intended).
This is one of those books you can read in one sitting and be satisfied. I will warn you though, you will want to read Sea Swept as soon as you finish. I wanted to.
