When We Believed in Mermaids

I wish I could give this story at least four stars but the ending was quite disappointing. This is a story of two sisters Kit and Josie who were raised in Santa Cruz CA to parents who never really took the time to raise them. They both encounter hardships and heartbreak so much so that one sister fakes her own death to escape her past.

That alone intrigued me but once we find out the reason for the faked death the story just falls flat. There's a rushed family reunion and a love story that didn't bloom as it should have. I don't feel any closure with this story.
