HIS TREASURE AND HIS OBSESSION…Despite her longing for the sea, Macy has clung to the safety of land for half her life, devoting herself to her daily routine — until she agrees to go sailing with a childhood friend. Her fears come to fruition when a sudden storm capsizes their boat, rekindling her old terror. She awakens to a rescuer who is anything but human — and he refuses to let her go. … her go. Treated like a curiosity and a possession, she’s desperate to go home. Yet Macy is undeniably drawn to this strange creature. Can she give up her old life, her family and friends, to embrace this adventure…and Jax?
HER SAVIOR AND HER CAPTOR…
Jax the Wanderer is a hunter, an explorer, and an oddity among his kind. While other kraken are content near their dens, Jax is driven by a deep need to journey far and wide, discovering the unknown corners of the sea. Macy challenges everything he’s known; she is the most alluring creature he’s ever seen on his travels. He must possess her, though he knows it can only end in disaster. How much is he willing to forsake for the female he desires?

In a word, tentacular!
Love, love, love!
Epic story, The impossible becomes possible. Welcome to the Treasure of the Abyss
==============================================================
You need to suspend belief before reading this and as its a Science Fiction & Fantasy book its quite easy to do, that for me is the whole point of this kind of genre its makes the impossible, possible. I have read some reviews were they were so against it that they gave it one star I have no idea what you read but the reasons for a one star do not match, Yes he is a sea dweller with tentacles and your point is ? Jax is half human have octupiod the cover of the book clearly shows you that. I loved the cover incidentally.
============================================================
The tale of Macy whose love for the ocean was cut dramatically short due to tragic circumstances, Finds herself on a boat when things turn horribly wrong and she is saved by Jax The wanderer, I loved it, it was unusual and it was exciting and intriguing so much so I have got the next book waiting for me.
Tiffany Roberts has given me a tale that is different as it is normal. Acceptance for who you are, self belief and love, learning from past mistakes and moving on.
Ultimately its a love story of two very different individuals. I loved the scenario I loved the second characters especially Akron, His and Amyee’s story next promises to be very good. Over all a solid 5 star read.
I haven’t gone to much into the plot one because I hate it myself if someone puts up spoilers, but the other reason you need to read it because anything I say here will be ultimately my thoughts and not yours, some people do not like this idea of technically fish and human mating when it is far more complex and intriguing, and as this story builds I am sure it gets much more exciting.
Thank you Tiffany Roberts for once again allowing me to escape into the world of fantasy.Treasure of the Abyss (The Kraken Book 1)
New book from this fantastic fantasy romance writer duo…hopefully as the name suggests first in series!
In a futuristic time on a faraway planet resides a human colony ‘the watch’ . Everyone has their role, Macy’s is a Gardner and provides for the watch, working alongside many others to keep the colony thriving.
She feels the obligations of her life in the hardest way, from the loss of a most beloved love one and the guilt to be the prefect daughter lays heavy on her. Especially in the form of courting her friend Corbin, she has no ‘romantic feelings’ towards him but knows that he is a good man and he loves he and their ‘joining’ is much wanted by their parents.
After Corbin has planned a romantic trip at sea, Macy’s is terrifed of water, pushing her fears aside for him she decides to go. But the sea is primal thing and a terrifying storm results in her being knocked overboard.
Macy fights to stay afloat and not let the sea take her….her salvation and rescuer is jax, he is a kracken, an cephalopod/human hybrid… created by the original human settlers from earth. He and his fellow kracken live on the bottom of the ocean in a ghost filled structure made for humans by humans. He should kill her, but he doesn’t…He should hate macy, but is drawn to her and her confusing human ways.
Fantastically original is it conception and delivery, I adored this book. Macy and jax’s friendship and love developed at a wonderful pace. And holy tentacles!! There were some fantastically steam HAWT scenes in there!! ( always welcomed by me!! )
But this book is more than a ( brilliant ) fantasy romance it has an underlying message of tolerance, respect and forgiveness by not holding current generations in contempt of past crimes. If either are to survive and build any kind of future, alliances are to be made.
I was pleasantly surprised by this book. As a fan of Ruby Dixon’s barbarian series this came up as a recommended read and I can certainly see some similarities. But the premise was quite different and I liked the world-building. Both MCs were likeable and their romance was sweet. I’m looking forward to reading more in this series!
Long ago on a planet far far away a race of being was created to serve as deep water laborers.
They revolted.
They took a name to inspire fear in the surviving humans.
Kraken.
Three hundred years later Macy, humble gardener, will cross paths a kraken. The results are sexy.
Well okay! This was completely out of the norm for me and I wasn’t sure what to expect. When you think of tentacles and…sex, well you know. However, this was so much better than I thought it would be. I absolutely loved Jax and his extreme protectiveness over Macy. Add in his jealous possessive tendencies and he rocketed himself up my hero list. Gotta admit, the tentacle thing did detract a bit from it all but the further into the book I read the more I adjusted to it.
This was a very well written, very well developed story with two characters that both hungered for freedom. And well, yeah, of course the gaining of it is the big conflict. There were some rough patches for this couple to get through in order to find their happy ever after.
With a fast pace, some great secondary characters I’m sure we’ll see again, and plenty of steam, this is a great book to try if you’re a bit adventurous in your reading…which I am usually not. I’m glad I took a chance and tried it and I’m sure I’ll move on to the other books in the series as well.
Dual POV
Such a terrific book. Original hero and great chemistry between the H/h. Both sexy and sweet, too. Went on to read the whole rest of the series and have loved each and every one!
Well I finally decided to read this one after repeatedly seeing it in my recommendation. This is a distinctive storyline between a human and a kraken which I admit I have a fondness for. There is an actual plot, some resistance between the two main characters , and prejudice from both human and kraken. It is a good story which kept me interested . I like it and will continue with next book.
Love, love this book and I can’t wait for the second one to be released!
