OVERALL RATING –3.5-4 stars
RECOMMENDED FOR: those that like steam with a bit of fantasy romance story.
First my usual points:
– I do not do spoilers unless warned.
– Read the summary above; it will tell you what the book is about. I will not reiterate.
– This is a bit of a standalone but part of a series, different characters in each book, but we first get a better view of the world in book 1 so best enjoyed when read in order.
– No errors that I caught as far as editing.
– The author was pretty new to me but I read the first three books in the series and have enjoyed the fantasy
BOOK:
– Contemporary fantasy romance
– 1st person with dual POV
Other characters from the series:
— other characters from the first book make appearances with slight involvement of a supporting. nature; characters from second book are mentioned.as well
— main characters’ story mostly concluded
Star Ratings – 1 (poor) – 5(READ THIS BOOK)
· Writing Quality: 4 stars
· Story ingredient: 4 stars
· Ease of reading/Pace: 5 stars
· Plot strength: 3.5-4 stars I do feel there were some plot holes with these characters
· Steam Level: 5 stars – open door graphic scenes
Notes/Opinion (personal):
This is a 6 book series that interconnects. I would highly suggest it be read in order as some details were covered in earlier books but not in great detail in later books. As with prior books, I did enjoy the story but felt more detail could have been added to strengthen the world and give the characters more depth. There were some questions left between the main characters that I felt could have been answered to make this more complete. There definitely was steam but I felt a bit more of a connect between these characters as opposed to prior characters. I also felt there were some unanswered questions with these characters that were not addressed. The overall arc of the story is definitely indicative of continuing through the other books (which I have not read at this point). I did like the story but again, feel it left some plot holes.
The fifth book in the Lords of the Abyss series a well written story with a very good storyline that flowed smoothly across the pages. Demon, a merman shapeshifter and Victoria’s story of suspense, drama, danger,villains, and romance. The story was well worth reading.
Rescuing Love
Michelle M. Pillow’s fifth book in her ‘Lords of the Abyss’ series is swimmingly fantastic. This story has an abundance of adventure, suspense and romance. Demon and Victoria, the main characters, have a one sided chemistry at first. The reason being that Victoria didn’t know who to trust. Demon was instantly attracted to Victoria and had to work hard to earn her trust. This story was a short read but very enjoyable. Highly recommended and definitely a MUST read!
What can I say other than wow this series is amazing each book has be amazing you got lost in the story. And taken along on the characters journey can’t wait to read the next book

This book had more world building and really started to build on the Scylla. The FMC had a really sad reason why she was in the depths. A few steamy scenes. Quick read and interesting read. I love this series!

Demon is always on the lookout for any humans in distress and this is his task at present.
When he does come across a human female who has been anchored to the sea floor, he is quick to save her life.
Thinking his dreams have finally come true as he looks upon this beautiful woman, the bubble soon bursts.
She is being hunted and doesn’t trust him at all.
He makes it his mission to protect this stunning creature and hopefully win her heart and affection along the way.
Demon is sure this is his one and only but she will take some persuading.
Another fantastic book in this merman series which takes one of the lonely and spins a tale surrounding their fight for love.
I have thoroughly enjoyed each book for its own merits and this is no different.
In a way I do like that the women are hesitant and there is drama involved or the story wouldn’t be nearly as satisfying at the end.
The author knows just how to write such an addictive and soul capturing story which almost swallows you whole.
I could get lost in this watery world and be happy never to resurface.
Who needs a typical man when you can have a merman?

This story about Demon and Victoria was a little different storyline from the previous Merr books when the Merr saves a human women from drowning and claims her as a mate. Demon does come to the rescue of Victoria who is chained under the sea, but Victoria thinks she’s been sent to a watery hell after her boat crashed and Demon is a demon. Demon is patrolling with Cain around the Atlantes dome when they find Pirene a mermaid for the Olympians. They try to take her to their dome city when a giant worm arrives and eats her. Demon then hears a voice and goes to check it out and finds Victoria. Why is she chained? I did find this story a enjoyable read, the characters likable, and the storyline with the romance and action kept my interest in this Merr romance.

Two Heartfelt Rescues
This story was quick and sweet, while adding new developments To the Atlantes world. Victoria’s introduction to the Mer world was a abrupt one, but the resulting love she and Demon had was so strong. I’m really enjoying this series, and I can’t wait to see King Lucius get his happy ending.
This is a steamy/sweet merman romance.. I liked it! It is exciting and entertaining, with addictive storyline and fun characters..

4.5 stars
Those Olympians evil! Demon (so unfortunately named) has his hands full trying to win Victoria due to the acts of the Olympians. Victoria has trouble dealing with her tramatic experience at the hands of the Olympians.
Demon shows just how lonely the Merr’s existance is throughout the story (his encounter with the triplets was kind of heartbreaking). Demon is my favorite Merr and I believe this is my favorite story in the series but the author really put his mate through (H E double hockey sticks). I am so happy that we got an update on Bridget. It’s a great story and it really kept me turning pages. I do have to say this again – those Olympians are freakin’ evil.
Grab this story and enjoy.
This is a sweet, romantic tale. Demon is a merman who happens upon his formerly human mate underwater. He saves her just in time. They needed each other.
Novella length, 1/5 heat level, not very spicy, it’s a nice story all the same. No cheating, no cliffhanger and a HEA for Victoria and Demon.

Every book just keeps getting better and better! Michelle Pillow is a master and describing a scene without over doing it. She makes the entire book come alive, from the fish to the king. I can’t wait to read the rest of them, I am hooked!
I love Michelle M. Pillows take on mermaids. I love this series. Demon thought Victoria was a Scylla but realized that she was a Merr. When Victoria heard Cain call Demon’s name she thought he was an actual demon. Especially after the stories she heard of the Merr from the Olympians. I love how protective Demon became of her. The ending was a surprise with the King.

Making Waves is the fifth book in the Lords of the Abyss series by Michelle M. Pillow.
This was a fantastic surprise full of romance, adventure, and mystery.
Demon is a Merr Hunter. He was near the dome when he heard a female voice calling his name specifically cursing his name. Curious, he went towards the voice where he found a female that seemed to be turning into a scylla. A scylla are mindless creatures who did not breathe oxygen from the done.
Victoria was on vacation when her rental boat sunk. She went straight to the dark abyss of the ocean. Sea creatures called the Olympians wanted to expand their numbers so they attempted to test her by holding her prisoner and testing her chained down in the bottom of the ocean.
I adored this book! I loved the thrill and anticipation of what was happening throughout the book. There was mystery and romance combined in one. I do not normally ready stories located in the ocean, but I loved this!
