Then, the morning after an awful storm, Hailey and Claire discover something unusual in the murky water at the bottom of the pool. The Capri Beach Club has been the scene of so many memories for the girls, but this summer is especially bittersweet for them. I think others should read this book because it is about friends and family and shows how you can support each other.Best friends Hailey and Claire are spending their last summer together before Claire moves to Florida with her grandparents.

This story relates to my life because when my friends need help, I help them, even if I don't get a wish. My least favorite character is Hailey because she doesn't do as much as Claire. My favorite character is Aquamarine because she is a mermaid. My favorite part of the story is when Aquamarine becomes human because there are a lot of waves made from the transition. I would have changed the ending of the book because I think Hailey should have stayed and Aquamarine should stay human because it would have been a happier ending. Claire could visit Hailey sometime next summer. Hailey and Claire both don't get their wish, but they are okay with it. Insted, Hailey and Claire prove to Aquamarine's father that love exists between friends by loving Aquamarine. Raymond doesn't fall in love with Aquamarine in three days, and Aquamarine didn't prove love exists to her father. Hailey and Claire's plan is working, but Hailey starts to think if she should move because her mom has been waiting for this opportunity. At the dance, Aquamarine and Raymond start to like each other. Raymond invites Aquamarine to the Last Splash, a dance. They are going to help Raymond love Aquamarine so they can wish that Hailey won't leave. Hailey is moving, but she doesn't want to go. The problem is that Hailey and Claire like Raymond too. With the help of Haily and Claire, she can prove love really exists.Īquamarine chooses Raymond. The problem is that she only has three days.

She meets this boy named Raymond and wants him to love her so she can prove her point.

Her father lets her become human for three days to prove love really exists. Aquamarine, a mermaid, lived in the ocean with her father the king of the sea.
