Forbidden Waters (Mica and Lexy Book 2)

Release Date: May 22, 2015

A forbidden boat ride turns into the night from hell…

After nearly being killed by drug dealers during an April hiking trip, Lexy and Mica are now on lock down. Their parents want them to stay safe and in town…but where’s the fun in that?

Bored and frustrated by these new restrictions and the fact they can’t hang out with their new boyfriends at will, the girls decide to take a sneaky boat ride across the lake, which isn’t strictly against the rules considering they aren’t actually leaving town.

But things don’t go according to plan.

Their sneaky trip across the water is fraught with disaster when they end up with an annoying tag-along, Tracey, who fills their heads with terrifying ghost stories of the murdering hermit who lives on the other side of the lake. Easy enough to brush off, until their boat capsizes and they find themselves injured and stranded in his ghostly turf. As night sets in, the girls find themselves on the run from a series of unexplained creepies that can only mean one thing…the ghost man is alive.

Will Eli and Tom, figure out where their girlfriends are and get there in time to help them? Or will these two best friends fall into the hands of the man rumored to have murdered his family?

what I love with these series with Mica and Lexy was the fact that anyone of us can relate into them. Probably not so much as with the adventures they went through but the characters character, attitude, reactions… it’s all so familiar because at one point of our lives we’ve been in the age Mica and Lexy has been, We’ve been the impulsive, a bit immature and over confident teen agers growing into adult that they currently are. And of course, who can forget that feeling of falling in love the first time? The first relationship we’ve been that we thought we know a lot at that age only to find out that we have a lot more to learn when it comes to relationship. Forbidden Waters bring all of those emotion back home as if it was a journey back in time. Or at least that was how it felt like for me.

The suspense and mystery is not so much as the first book but I assure you that like the first one it will have your imagination running wild. I was actually hoping for a bit more of paranormal stuff but that’s just me asking for more. This book is already complete in essence as it is. Add another annoying character into the loop and you’ll surely find yourself hooked and eager to find out how it went for them.

I love best the fact how it ends… not the love story part but the friendship part. The part where the old bond gets stronger and a new one is formed. It’s heart touching and definitely brought a smile to my face.

Once again, Melissa Pearl brought me to a world so magnificent that I saw the beauty of literature collide with my own experience. And for that, I sincerely thank you for this wonderful novel.
