Book Description
Tattooed warriors are climbing out of the secret depths to claim their soul mates and save their race!
Determined warlord Torun must claim Lucy, who mistook him for a shipwreck survivor and pulled his injured body from the ocean. She is his soul mate. Now she must join with him and give him a child.
Lucy can’t believe the words coming out of this dominant male. Her destiny is to become a mermaid queen? Too bad “destiny” forgot that Lucy’s a broke divorcee who can’t even have a child. It really is too bad, because Torun’s gorgeous, and his iridescent gold tattoos shimmer beneath the water as he flexes those broad, hard pectorals...
But Torun's in more danger than a bump on the head, and Lucy is the only one who can save him. Their choices will forever change the endangered race of mermen - or destroy it!
Dive in to the first novel in the bestselling Lords of Atlantis series. This complete novel with a happy ending features steamy shifter love scenes, underwater gun fights, and a giant female octopus named Mr. Huggles.
My Review
Lucy's ex divorced her because she couldn't have children. But she's determined to make a name for herself by finding opal's in the ocean. While out on the ocean in her boat, she spots Torun's body and thinks he's deceased. But she can't just leave him there knowing his family would want closure so she pulls him aboard only to find he's very much alive. But once he recovers, she finds he's a bit strange and thinks it's just because he's from a tribe far away. He is in fact from far away, under the ocean because he's a merman.
Torun knows that she's his mate right away because he can see a light coming from her and it's bright. He convinces her that he's a merman and that she'll be able to breathe under the water if he can just find an elixir that she can drink so they can go find more opal's. But his people are outraged that he's brought back a human as a mate and a long battle between he and his people start.
Torun was a little weird at first because he really doesn't know a lot about humans on the top side. So he's learning and it was fun to watch. He's very protective of Lucy and wanted her to be happy with him. The things she sees while under the water was sometimes fun like the octopus she called Mr. Huggles and sometimes scary like when Torun's people found out she was there.
Learning about the people, culture and things under the sea like their life tree was fascinating and made for a fun read.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
