Wow. I found this book on the 'Best Underrated MM Book' list for Bingo, and I am so glad I did! I don't think this is something I normally would've found on my own, and boy would I have missed out! I always have it in my head that I don't like fantasy type books, but then I get surprised when something like this comes along. lol

Ian is mourning his wife's death and escapes to his childhood summer home for summer. He figures that he will relax and work on his latest science fiction novel, but he does not expect to find two hunky twin brothers that end up being his fated mates. By and Aph are demigods who are sea centaurs. They live and work in the water, but have been waiting for their mate for years. They knew who Ian was when he was younger, they just had to wait for him. Now that he is of age and single, they are ready to be together.

The story of their relationship-building was interesting, but there was also an intriguing side story of someone trying to hurt local sea creatures and Ian. I loved the twists the story took and loved watching the guys get together. Ian grew so much in this, and I loved who he became as he grew more confident. There were some great moments where I wondered what was going on and worried about who were bad characters and who was good. I picked out the villain early although I had no idea why they were the villain, and one person I worried about because they seemed suspicious became one of my favorite characters. Such an excellent book. I have other challenge books to read, but I had to get the next book because I just can't wait.

Definitely note, for those worried about By and Aph being brothers, they are with Ian, not with each other. The three of them are definitely all together, but they are Ian's boyfriends and there is no direct contact between the twins.… (más)
