Books like Home From the Sea (Elemental Masters #7) by Mercedes Lackey
When Mari Prothero turns sixteen, she learns the long‑standing rule of her fishing family: each generation must marry a sea‑dweller to secure the luck of the waves. Determined to control her own destiny, Mari demands that she choose her own suitor and seeks a teacher from the sea ruler’s domain to guide her. Meanwhile, two London‑based official magicians—stiff and unseasoned—send a pair of friends on a quest to find the new water mage, unaware that the journey will unite Mari with three other girls who will become lifelong friends. The story explores family expectations, the bonds between humans and animals, and the power of choosing one’s own path amid tradition.
