Three months ago, Aymee had no idea the kraken—half-human sea dwellers—even existed. Now, the violet eyes of the kraken Arkon haunt her imagination, and she longs to know his touch.

Is her desire for Arkon worth putting both their worlds at risk?

He's the last kraken—and he's living in exile. For centuries, Bjorn has punished himself for the loss of his people in the Great Shifter Wars. He barely lives, hiding away in his nature preserve and overseeing his watery territory. But an underwater encounter with a human scientist in his bay reawakens his magic. Bjorn is determined to ignore fate, except the quirky and curious scientist won't leave him alone. When Penelope shows up at his lighthouse, his Kraken takes matters into his own hands.

When the Monster Relations Bureau tells me I've been identified as a kraken shifter's mate, my first instinct is to run. I learned the hard way what it means to be treated like someone's possession, and I'm not about to make the same mistake twice. Only, Elias is… different. Patient and careful with me, willing to wait as long as it takes for me to let him in. The more I learn to trust him, and the more he draws me under with the dark temptation of his touch, the more the defenses I've held onto for so long start to crumble.

Carol Zhang is a shark shifter who can't hide her animal side. Her eerie eyes and sharp teeth make her an outcast even among other shifters. Only her fated mate could see through her terrifying exterior to the shy, lonely woman underneath. She's been waiting to meet him her whole life. And then she does. And everything goes wrong. Moss Taylor thought the worst thing that would happen to him this week was his soul breaking into pieces as an ancient monster took over his body as its new vessel. You know, the usual. Then he laid eyes on Carol Zhang and lost his heart as well.

Looking for adventure, I followed a hunch. It got me kidnapped and taken aboard a ghost ship with a kraken for a captain. How could I have guessed magic was real? Or that I was born to wield it? Will these fated mates find their way to happily ever after? Or will secrets force them apart?
