The buildup to Cthulhu’s reveal is monumental. I love the descriptions of the unearthed city and how the war began all those years ago. It is lush and easy to picture. And I love Cthulhu.

Story
Gabriel should have drowned twice in his life, but he survived. Casillus Nerion, his beautiful merman savior, tells him the reason for this is simple: Gabriel is a merman. Long ago, a Braven ancestor fell in love and had a child with a powerful merman. This child did not inherit the Mer gifts, but Gabriel has. Despite seeing inexplicable physical changes to his body when he gets wet and having trouble breathing when there is plenty of air, Gabriel’s head tells him that Mer, like love, do not exist.

I loved the whole book. I will be relistening to it. Shawn and Dane's love story is amazing. Their bond is strong, believable and enables them to not only stay together but help save the world. And continue protecting it.

Riveting and sensual

Almost all of Raythe Reign's series are my favorite series. The Bodyguard/The Artifact won my heart on the writer's membership site. I paid for membership, bought it from the members' store and purchased it again here on Amazon so I could have the audiobook at a cheaper price. Dane and Shawn are so sweet. Their loves builds slowly over the book and you really feel their longer and the tension. You feel for bith of them and wish they can rise above from the pain and find the love they truly deserve. Shawn is truly a man's man as he bravely fights for justice and for Dane. The villain, the Ydrath, is terrifying and insidious. I live the books and highly recommend them and the author's website.

Gabriel Braven is destined for a great love, but he does not believe it. His parents had a storybook romance… until a freak ocean storm robbed them of their lives and left him alone to be raised by his grandmother. With their deaths, Gabriel’s adoration for the sea turned to fear, and his belief in happy-ever-afters turned to dust. Gabriel vowed to never set foot in the ocean again and to never believe in love.

One of my favorite stories by one of my favorite authors narrated by one of my favorite voice actors! Dreams do come true! I've bought this story twice: on Raythe Reign's store for membership stories and here on Amazon. This story is riveting, poignant and one of my favorite love stories I've read in years. Patton truly does justice to the characters and his acting skills are superb. This truly is an amazing experience. You will love the characters and truly empathize and feel their hurt and passion.
