Whispers of the Deep
One of the many engineers that keeps Beta, the city under the sea, running, Mira only wants to make her family proud and to prove herself worthy. She knows the mysterious city better than anyone and it's her dream to help it flourish. But then, on a solo job in an abandoned section of the city, she encounters a monster of legend.
An undine. A dangerous merman from an ancient civilization, long forgotten. Arges has fought his entire life for his people.
With deadly creatures under his control, he plans to eradicate Beta once and for all to protect his kind and their peaceful way of life. But when a human woman saves him, she unknowingly creates a bond between them, one he can't ignore. Even though her flaming red hair haunts his dreams, he needs her for information on the undine's enemies.
So he steals her. Keeps her. Feeds her.
Only to realize their bond is far deeper than captor and captive. He cannot let her go-but he cannot keep her under the sea. In a battle to determine if love can survive a war beneath the waves, it will be their decision that changes the tides.

This was a BOTM in one of my book clubs, otherwise, Im not sure I would of picked this up personally. I liked that the MFC is an engineer, her “rebreather” is a really cool concept. This was an interesting story, kept me wanting to find out how it ends, and the relationship between the MCs was really cute. I liked how they couldnt really communicate for a while, and the challenges that came with that. The little Walee droid was a cool addition and had a cute but sad backstory. Kinda sensed some plot holes with the bot, like it spent 100 years on the sea floor, but couldnt open up (outside of that) and get even a splash of water on it or it’d break? This does have a HEA but sets up another book without being too much of a cliff hanger, I appreciate that and will probably consider the next one when it releases to get his douchy brothers story. 🌶️ 3/5 This was a bit of a slow burn, but there was a lot of tension leading up to the actual spice, which was pretty much the last 20% of the book. Its always nice to get a few ch of spice when the MCs are constantly interrupted or hot and cold for a good bit of the story. This was some really unique under water spice, double heart, double lungs, and yes double 🍆🍆.
