New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh dives beneath the surface of her Psy-Changeling world into a story of passionate devotion and selfless love...
Security specialist Bowen Knight has come back from the dead. But there's a ticking time bomb in his head: a chip implanted to block telepathic interference that could fail at any moment--taking his brain along with it. With no time to waste, he should be back on land helping the Human Alliance. Instead, he's at the bottom of the ocean, consumed with an enigmatic changeling...
Kaia Luna may have traded in science for being a chef, but she won't hide the facts of Bo's condition from him or herself. She's suffered too much loss in her life to fall prey to the dangerous charm of a human who is a dead man walking. And she carries a devastating secret Bo could never imagine...
But when Kaia is taken by those who mean her deadly harm, all bets are off. Bo will do anything to get her back--even if it means striking a devil's bargain and giving up his mind to the enemy...
My Thoughts:
The last thing Bowen Knight, the head of the Human Alliance,
remembers is being shot and falling into the water. Now awake he realizes he’s not dead but has
been saved by the Black Sea clan and is deep below in their habitat in the
sea. His life has been saved, but the
chip that shields his mind from Psy attacks is degrading quickly. He only has a
few weeks/months left to live if nothing is done. However, the Black Sea clan doctor has been
working on an experimental compound to neutralize the threat. The chances it’ll work are very slim, but
even if he doesn’t make it the data obtained could benefit the rest of the
humans with the same problem, and Bowen realizes he must take the risk. Bowen
doesn’t think in all this he’d find a woman who’d so completely capture his heart,
but Kaia is unique. She’s everything
warm and protective, but she has a mischievous playful side that speaks to the
serious Bowen in a way that’s too tempting to resist.
Ocean Light had
so much grabbing my attention! An
intense, but possibly doomed romance, internal threats and betrayals, and a race
fix the ticking time bomb in Bowen’s head.
Nalini’s Singh’s writing is captivating and beautiful, playful and
sensual, thrilling and exciting! Ocean
Light is the second in the Psy-Changeling Trinity series, but it’s not necessary
to read the previous book to enjoy the story. Loving this series!

Thank you for the chance!
You're welcome! Good luck! :)
I read one of her rock star romances but I didn't enjoy it. I did love her Guild Hunter series so I'll give this one a go.

I was so thrilled to finally get to meet the sea changelings in this one. Bowen's story was great.
The science fiction element sounds intriguing!
This novel and series sounds unique and fascinating.
This is another series I've been wanting to start, but my library doesn't have a copy of the first book! Do they need to be read in order, or do they stand alone within the series? I'm just going to have to buy the first one so I can finally start reading it!
Just started following you via Bloglovin'!

I think I started book 1 in this with the bears and have not had a chance to finish it, but my romance mood has been lacking lately :(
Great review Rachel :D So glad you liked this one. <3 And ohh, possibly doomed romance? RUDE. Hope it ended happily, haha :D Also, I like this cover.
