Natasha didn’t believe the fairy tales she read to her niece. Having given up on love, she only read them to instill a sense of hope. But when Natasha goes scuba diving in the Bermuda Triangle, suddenly the life she’s always known is changed forever. Thrust into a culture of people she’s only read about in books, she meets Raif, a shape-shifting Warrior Chief of Atlantis—and her soul mate. Their attraction is instant, powerful, and something she’s never experienced before. Now Natasha must decide what she truly wants. Can she follow her heart and accept Raif without losing herself in the process? Or will she run away and doom a hidden culture to eternal isolation?
So, the description of the book sounded really interesting, but then I started reading it..The more I read in Natasha’s POV, the less I liked her. It made it really hard to read. DNF.

So when I saw in the blurb the name Atlantis, the Bermuda Triangle and shapeshifters I knew I wanted to read this book. And sadly I think I had too high hopes, since the first 40% of the story were so not my jam. As in, did the heroine really have nothing better to do than to fling herself at every male she met? I mean honestly, that made me want to stop reading the book a couple of times, since this book is supposedly about mates and so on... To say I disliked the heroine would be a mild understatement. Just her whole personality was awful and she all blamed it on her hormones. That to me screams the usual dimwit heroine that no one likes and roots for, me included. The only redeeming characters were Raif and Ashlyn. I even felt bad for her ex slash her back on boyfriend slash the cheated on boyfriend. I mean, the whole thing is just an emotional mess. Oh, right, did I mention we don't get a good ending? Nope, well now you've been warned. Since this book is so short it felt almost like this is only the half of the story and I hope we get the other half in the second book of this series. Otherwise, what was the point in writing this one?!
It all may seem like I have nothing good to say about the characters and plot but there is still hope for this series to grow. I loved the vamps and other supernatural beings, so maybe their books will be better. I don't know, but I sure hope so...

This book is almost a fantasy within a fantasy. It is a wonderfully written account of a woman who celebrates her 30th birthday by going on a cruise and winds up in a world of wonder and mystery after a diving expedition. The characters are well written and the story does lead you into the sequel. I'm anxious to see how the other minor characters play a part in what is yet to come. Very nice read!

Choice…what would you do for love? It was a wonderful story of the trial and sacrifice two people make for love. A great mix of paranormal, mythology and modern day. Natasha loved her family (sister and niece) but decided to take a much needed trip to get away. On the trip she met up with a lost love, and discovered new adventures while seeing the sites and scuba diving. Discovering the lost city of Atlantis, her very existance was threatened until Raif showed her how far he was willing to go for love. Their sacrifice for love broike them apart but showed her how much more there was to bone deep, true love.
She discovered herself and made new friends/protectors along the way. I would definately recommend this book to anyone who loves a great love story.

Book started in the middle 46 pages could have been a good story but had to imagine what might have happened before chapter 12. Disappointed

While the story has you wanting more and closing your eyes to picture the scenes...it also has you reaching for a fan because at moments the reader might seem to get a tad warm! I love reading all types of books, and I must admit that it feels as though this one should have come out a long long time ago! The story line is genius, sexy and delightfully entertaining!!! I look forward to reading other pieces by this author as I do expect big things and possibly some movies....with sexy actors.

This novel was entertaining and fun to read. There are very graphic love scenes throughout, but the story line was great!
