Book 2... had "plague" scenes that hit a little too close to what covid was like when it first went global. So people need to be warned about that. I thoroughly enjoy the idea of a mer-shifter whose current default is living in a casino-sized aquarium and comes out of the aquarium to hang out with land-dwellers. So many romances are of mer-shifters who live on land and merely swim through the sea.

I loved nearly everything about book 1!!! There were a few pages here and there that dragged and confusingly meandered a bit across multiple book genres and POVs. But there was angst, politicking, men in skirts, a battle, and a sprinkle of bdsm! Despite some flaws, it hit the spot.
