For the past five years, all Erin has known is pain. But no longer.
With the help of Grym Hollow’s strange protector, The Guardian, Erin can finally escape her prison. Hastily, she signs his contract to start a new life in a faraway land and marry the Kraken King.
The nightmare is over. But is this monster any different?
Allarick can’t afford to trust anyone above the surface…until he must take a human wife to protect his underwater kingdom. What he doesn’t expect is the broken, battered woman who shows up on his shore. Or her selflessness and tenacity in the face of danger.
While their enemies move on land, a new threat emerges in the depths—the Leviathan, a creature that attracts people to their doom with its haunting song. If the sea falls, the whole world will go with it. Except, their love has the power to seal it away forever—if only they can embrace it.
Book three in the Grym Hollow series. Each book follows one couple and ends in a happily-ever-after. The books can be read in any order, but reading in numerical order is best.

THE KRAKEN'S QUEEN is the third full-length novel in the Grym Hollow series and I loved every word!
Erin has been through hell at the hands of someone who claimed they loved her, leaving her half dead - literally. Allarick has his queen but will she be able to cope?
You know what? I adored Allarick! He never doubted Erin personally and was in awe of her strength, even when she thought she had none. He supported and encouraged her from day one, respecting her boundaries and letting her set the pace. And Erin herself? She broke my heart! I was egging her on every step of the way, her small steps being celebrated by me just as much as Allarick! When she finally broke free of the chains of her past, it was amazing to see, as well as being spicy! 😁 The safety she found in Allarick and his tentacles was so well-written. After all, it wasn't tentacles that had hurt her!!!
You would think after seeing his two fellow kings and their brides, Allarick would have realised that trying to keep his new bride safe and protected just wasn't going to work. I mean, come on, dude! BUT it was for the right reasons, so I'll let him off!
As with every book by this author, it was well-written, well-paced, with amazing world- and character-building. Hot and spicy, tender and caring, it's all here. I know once I pick up a book by this author, I'm going nowhere until I've finished it! And what an ending! Did I have a satisfied smile on my face when I read the epilogue and found out what happened to James? Why, yes I did! And bring on the next book!!! I can't wait.
In case you haven't realised yet, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book and the series! It would be better to read them in order but you could read them as standalone IF you wanted to miss out on the fabulousness of the others.
