A Fantasy Novel Of Destiny and Devotion. By Megan Cutter.
In the sprawling empire of Atlanthium, the world is a sharp divide between the shimmering capital depths and the jagged, obsidian spires that pierce the ocean's surface. Goliath is the formidable guardian of these High Spires, a gargoyle shifter with skin as hard as the reef-rock he commands. A lonely sentry who moves through the sea caves like a living ghost, he has spent lifetimes using his power over stone and darkness to hold back the predators of the abyss.
His solitary existence is shattered when he discovers Sedina and her four-year-old sister, Atlantis, seeking refuge within the hidden, sun-drenched lagoon tucked deep inside his coastal fortress. A siren shifter who wields the devastating fury of the North Wind and the crushing weight of the tides, Sedina has been a nomadic protector since a shark-frenzied massacre claimed her parents. In the treacherous currents of Atlanthium, a young siren is a prize for many, and Sedina has had to become a storm personified to keep her sister safe.
The moment their paths cross, the ancient pull of the Fated Mate bond takes hold, anchoring Goliath's shadows to Sedina's tides. As an ancient corruption begins to poison the waters and turn sea-life into monsters, Goliath claims the sisters as his own, providing the unshakable sanctuary Sedina has always prayed for.
Together, they must navigate the dangerous politics of the sunken realm and the rising darkness of the deep. In this obsidian sanctuary, Goliath steps into the role of a father and Sedina flourishes as a mother, both dedicated to raising young Atlantis to become a graceful and dignified siren who will one day help them reclaim the peace of the sunken throne.
