Melody yearns for the simple life she use to have before her father suddenly became wealthy and is now consumed with it.... to the point where he is forcing her to get married to a horrible man. Melody wants no part of it but then suddenly the Kraken of the Darksea appears and says he’s come to collect from her father who has stolen from him and what he wants is Melody. Melody is traded by her father, his life for hers and she is absolutely livid. She is then taken to the palace of the Kraken where he tells her that he wants her for a bride and that she is the most precious thing to him. Melody’s entire lie is now turned upside down, going from being neglected and unheard to suddenly being taken care of and protected by her new living situation. For the first time in her life Melody now has someone who listens to her, takes cate of her, and puts her needs before their own and now she finds that maybe this is the perfect change she needed. I love this serious period, if you like monster romances then this is the perfect book to read. Seriously its so good.
