by N.R. Walker
Fraser Gorman finds comfort in unrequited love. It’s predictable, safely distant, and forever unobtainable. Zero risk, all the feels. That’s how he’s lived for years. But then the object of his affection plucks at those feelings, pulling at threads that threaten to unravel everything, and Fray has nowhere left to turn but straight into the truth.
Tobin Tiller is broken. Has been for as long as he can remember. He keeps himself distant, building his carefully constructed walls against the rejection he knows is coming. But when he recognises the signs of the bond and who his mate is, he tries to resist. After all, rejecting the bond before Fray can reject him is what he does best.
But the threat of Lusca makes it all inevitable because that’s how fate plays the game. And the men of Tenebrae Cove are about to learn that fate will always win, regardless of their best intentions, and regardless of the rules. Changes are coming, revelations will be made, and the truth is something else entirely.
Fray and Tobin are in too deep for this to play out any other way.

and I so hope that will not be the last in this new series, but with unexpected turns within the last pages, I am very hopeful. I love how characters evolved, some mysteries were solved, Salem anybody? Only downside and that is just a personal one: I love night swims in the sea, ok Mediterranean and Baltic, after reading the books not sure if this is still a hobby. )

This book has everything I love. Great story, believable characters, and lots of action. The world building is thorough and believable but is integrated into the story so it doesn't slow the reader down. I really hope there are more books coming in this series because I want to see these characters again and again. )

Very enjoyable 2nd book of the series. Really looking forward to book 3. You can’t go wrong with Walker’s books. )

I very much enjoyed going back to Tenebrae Cove to see this lovely cast of characters. This book is quite different from the first book, as it features a number of matings in quick succession, with a large focus on Fray and Toby, likely tied to the rising of the mysterious deep ocean creature. There is mystery, plenty of action, danger, and paranormal activity. While the book ends completely and in a very good place, it leaves room for offshoots to other groups and people. I hope we get to...
