Super summer read! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Long-hidden Secrets, Lies and Betrayals *by W***Y on 9 January 2021* “When We Believed in Mermaids an emotionally-charged story that explores the complexity of relationships, forgiveness and love opens when Kit Bianci journeys to Auckland, New Zealand to find her sister Josie Bianci thought dead for fifteen years. In her search, memories of the past surface not only reawakening the trauma of her childhood; their closeness to the lost teenage boy who adopted their family; but also of the love between the sisters until an incident changed Josie. With vivid description of Santa Cruz’s beaches where the sisters learned to surf to picturesque New Zealand where after fifteen years the sisters reunite the plot ignites with an emotional mix of grief, loss and anger. Well-written and flowing from the first page to the last, the story is told from both Kit and Josie’s perspectives as they each remember their lack of parental guidance; Dylan’s love and conscience care; the aftermath of a violent earthquake; and a train explosion that changed a life. Yet intertwined with the lies, grief and sadness in the sisters’ past there is a well of love between Josie (aka Mari Edwards)and her husband Simon as well the sparks that fly with Kit’s and Javier’s romance. Bringing the story to life are compelling and complex personalities like the clever and grounded doctor, Kit Bianci; beautiful, vulnerable Josie Bianci who pretended to die to be able to live again; the caring but broken Dylan; the talented and empathetic Javier; and the wealthy, loving Simon. I thoroughly enjoyed “When We Believed in Mermaids” a novel you can’t put down until finished. ## Frequently Bought Together - When We Believed in Mermaids: A Novel - The Housemaid: An absolutely addictive psychological thriller with a jaw-dropping twist - Nightingale --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/251867939-when-we-believed-in-mermaids-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/251867939-when-we-believed-in-mermaids-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-08-13*
