Reading Response #3: Of Poseidon

Emma and Galen are definitely not oil and water. They go hand in hand with each other! Every experience, every fight brings them closer together. When Galen flatters her, he also flatters himself because of the connection that they feel  between each other.

In love at the beach. Every half-sea creature's favorite place.

And he can't let Grom mate with the wrong person. Since Nalia left him he was not able to find another mate. So Galen, Toraf, Dr. Milligan and the rest of the crew are trying to figure out who is the unknown person the are sensing in the water. In the middle of it they suspect that Emma's dad is the one who is half Poseidon. It's not him. Turn out it's Emma's mom, Nalia. Nalia was suppose to mate with Grom, Galen's older brother, but she ran away. All of those years were lost, and to regain is technically not an option.


Grom and Nalia always liked each other, until she started pulling away all the time.
 

                                   Mrs. McIntosh gives him a quizzical look but doesn't
                                   say anything when he reaches he side. He plunges his
                                   hands into the dishwasher. And sense her immediately.
                                   The stalker. The look in her eyes, the way her mouth
                                   hangs open, the way she glances down at the trident on
                                   his stomach, is all the confirmation he needs. "You've
                                   got a lot of explaining to do, Nalia." (Page 324)

Now they are reuniting and she runs away. And that's how the book ends. Luckily, there is a sequel for all of you who would like to read it. It was an interesting book with a bit more than a sprinkle of romance in it. It included mysteries that were not solved so that annoyed me. But that is why it has two more books following the next.
