Years before Lilly Ashton was recruited, Ada Hughes had already caught the eye of the demon hunters. But what led Ada, the quiet and sweet girl from Diabolus Venator, to be recruited to fight supernatural creatures?

Review
This book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Patricia Morais!
Tides is a Fantasy short story and tells the story of Ada. This short story is set in the World of Shadows series.
Tides is the first book I read by Patricia Morais, and I enjoyed reading it. The story wass interesting, I liked the different creatures (and the glossary at the end). This short story deals with family drama, Ada’s mother is dead and her father is abusive. Ada’s doing her best for her brothers, but everything changes when she sees a sea monster…
Tides was a good short story. I noticed, however, that this book was translated from Portugese. Some phrasing was a bit weird, but it didn’t bother me that much. I also think that a lot happened in this short story, and maybe a longer book would’ve been better. But besides that, I liked the short story and it’s perfect when you’re looking for a short Fantasy read.
