The Seas of Time
Star-crossed lovers from different worlds. Will their love survive?
When Talia agreed to take a break from her research to spend a week at the beach, ending up a captive in the depths of the ocean with her friend Janelle was the last thing she ever expected. Janelle has a fondness for fairy tales and is sure that their abductors, with their gold-medal swimmer physiques, are sea people—mermen. Talia knows that’s ridiculous, but when one of the men, Ballard, slips her his knife and lets her in on his own purpose for being there, she starts to suspect that the truth is beyond anything even Janelle could have imagined. She can’t deny her attraction to Ballard, but also can’t fully trust this man and his extraordinary claims. To get back home, she may have no choice.
Ballard spent the past year infiltrating a rogue military group suspected of breaking the sacred and critical First Tenet of Below: Do not contact those Above. His mission is to discover the location of a secret deep sea base and destroy the rogues' ability to travel to the sea's surface. But he can't help his feelings for Talia, the beautiful, intelligent woman from Above. The deeper he falls, the more he risks his own mission—and the future of every human on Earth.
As they are drawn deeper into danger, Talia and Ballard begin to realize that their only hope for survival is each other.

This was a fast paced story that dealt with plague and genetic modifications. Thrown in is some romance and adventure to tie the story together.

Was a great story. Fiesty female lead and some cool sciencey stuff with a bit of romance made this an excellent read.

It was entertaining. The ending felt a bit too convenient, but in general it was OK.

Space opera pirates, saboteurs, medical, sea men
While sending a ship to colonize a new planet, the ships engines miss fire sending the colonizing ship to the bottom of the Mariana trench and back into the past. In order to keep from effecting the future, they have instituted a policy of no integration with the people of the surface. This is fine until a virus kills most of the women and those that do not die are sterile. One of the communities start kidnapping young woman for their eggs, and as brides for the highest bidder. Well-developed characterization and well-written plot but for adult readers due to violence and sexual content.

This book had a great pairing where I enjoyed both of them, and fantastic world building. Sexy action plus shirtless guys, who are MERMEN, but it didn't give us a satisfying ending though it was a complete one. Read my full review on my blog.
