Not So Stranded: MM Romance with Tentacles
While on an uninhabited Hawaiian island to document green sea turtle nesting sites, Kit Tennant finds himself stranded after a storm steals his boat. Kit isn't alone, though, because a mated pair of cecaelia—a people who appear half-human and half-squid—have chosen the island's lagoon as their new home.
Hiaka knows that Kit is just as much their mate as Zenori is, but how do you woo a human? Eventually, curiosity gets the better of all of them and they have a few days of bliss before their isolation abruptly ends. A band of fishermen found Kit's abandoned boat and intend to destroy the island in order to hide their prize from authorities. Stealing his boat back and leaving is the only option for the trio to save the island and stay together.
Their destination? Cecaelia Bay, where Hiaka was born and their whole family awaits their return. Once Kit learns that Hiaka and Zenori are his mates, he's all in on becoming a devoted spouse and father to the cutest little mersquids on the planet.
This novella features a curious scientist and two mersquids happy to help him with his “research,” finding your fated mate and letting them find your third, pretending to work when all you want to do is boink, sailing to safety around the Hawaiian islands, coming home again to start your family, and having the cutest little babies the world has ever known.

I'll keep reading these if she keeps writing them, but this family tree is getting a bit chaotic at this point. There are also secondary characters now that I've not heard of from any of the other books, so maybe there will be more? Who knows. This was cute though. I wish we got more one-on-one time with both Kit/Z and Kit/Hi. I know this isn't a plot-heavy series, but it would just help it make more sense if we saw some character development.
