This was cute like the first one! Katee Roberts has some great characters that fall into a variety of gender categories (or none at all) and also the way she writes her characters always feels real. I think I liked the first one better, but that's more a personal preference for things not in the ocean. My favourite part involves a spoiler of the end so I'll put that at the very end of the review, fair warning that it's there.
This was great though. Loved coming back to this world and seeing how the kraken's story played out. It was certainly different than first while still having that base familiar concept. Definitely recommend, it's a quick monster romance.
**Spoilers Ahead!!**

This is a good LGBTQ+ friendly monster romance. The FMC has a lot of trauma she's overcoming and the MMC struggles with the loss of a spouse. It's not my favorite of the series, but there were parts I enjoyed. I didn't think the chemistry between the two characters was believable, and I'm not really a fan of Thane. He just rubbed me wrong and never really made up for the crap he put Lina through.

I wish it was longer so things didn’t feel rushed but I understand it is a novella for this reason.
