Triton Core #2
Harbinger
She survived the unthinkable.
She doesn't want his protection.
Marine biologist, Dr. Kathrine Sorland barely survived her first marriage. Now, Jones, her dog is the only male she has time for in her life. When protester activity threatens her team’s work monitoring a quarantine zone in the Norwegian Sea, Kathrine is forced to accept the protection of the Ocean Wolves. Working with their commander is a challenge, not least because he reignites feelings in her heart she believed long dead.
Formerly in the Russian Navy, Nik Borostovlo is in command of the Wolves for the first time. Married to his job, responsibility weighs heavy on his shoulders. There’s no room in his life for a woman, but no matter how hard he tries, he can’t deny his attraction to the strong-willed scientist.
As dangerous events escalate in the water, Nik is compelled to work closely with Kathrine. Her team has discovered something deep under the ice. Something that threatens the world’s oceans and must be kept from the wrong hands, whatever the cost. Nik may be the only person Kathrine can trust and time is running out.
As Nik battles to safeguard the woman he’s falling for, desire burns incandescent between them. Soon, Nik will discover that some scars run more than skin-deep and the toughest surround Kathrine’s heart.
Harbinger is the second book in the Triton Core Series. Each book is a standalone romance, which follows an overarching story. They can be read in isolation but for maximum enjoyment are best read in sequence.

However Nik Borostovlo who now is the leader f the Wolves joins the a group of Marine Biologists tracking Orcas little does he know the quarantine is down around the virus and affecting the Orcas, jellyfish and other marine life.
Is one of the biologist working for Triton Core who wants to weaponize the virus? Can they help the scientist find a way to stop them ?
Love these books and can't wait to read the next one.

4.5 - Very fast-paced and interesting! I love the setting ( ocean ) and how suspenseful but realistic the story is, and the characters are well developed - I could not help but binge this entire series! The concept of cyanobacteria is fascinating. I did not know much about it until reading this series, and according to records, it is the oldest form of any living thing on our planet. Nik and Katherine have their own tragic pasts, yet cannot deny the pull between them despite the danger around them. While a romance, there are very few spicy scenes, but more plot and suspense.

Very intense storyline that will take you on an incredibly suspenseful journey. Nik and Katherine are a wonderful couple who fight to protect against the deadly bacteria discovered under the sea.
Suspenseful, with so much happening in a very short timeframe. Part sci-fi thriller, part romance - all the action will leave you breathless and wanting to know how it ends.
This book was provided by the author/publisher with no expectations and that in no way influenced my review.

This is my second time reading this author and what an awesome read it was. I loved everything about this book. The plot is brilliant and very well written. The characters are amazing together and have such depth to them along with crazy chemistry.

Nik and Katherine
The Ocean Wolves is a great series! This story of Nik and Katherine is just awesome. The team is back minus Ethan on his second honeymoon. The second novel in the series is a standalone novel with enough adventure and action of its own. Read this series and enjoy!

I enjoyed the first book in this series, so went ahead and got the next one (thanks to Kindle Unlimited). This is the story of Nik and Kathrine. Triton Core is up to their same tricks - underwater scientific research isn't all that happens. An interesting read with a believable finale.

Awesome series
I’m really enjoying this series. It brings a bit of intelligence to the story and I find that refreshing. In my next life, I’ve always wanted to come back as a marine biologist, however it’s a pipe dream.
