Really creative SFR located on a space station on Europa that is submerged in the ocean beneath the ice. The author's imagined ocean creatures are fascinating and have a tendency to upstage the main characters from time to time. Which is not to say that Kiron (hunk alien) and Nikki (human ocean scientist) are not great characters. Nikki is pragmatic and entertaining while, Kiron in a nice riff on this trope is not an uber-alpha, but another scientist.

The story ends on a bit of the cliff-hanger with it unknown if Kiron and Nikki will get to be together.

Most of It was boring, a lot of the first half of the book could have been summarized in like two or three paragraphs. The romance felt a little forced. After spending three hours with the guy (three meetings, each during about an hour) she's in love? AND. WHY, WHY did Marlbor hate humans so much? He went way out of his way to harm them, going against orders, and even risking his life. WHY? Just because he's a bully? C'mon!! I don't think I will continue this series, I don't really care for the characters.
