About this listen
Is it love at first sight or a gamble of fate?
Captain James Harlow, third son of a viscount, expects nothing from life and yearns for adventure. He gets his wish when he’s overcome by a group of young miscreants with ties to the peerage, losing his hand in the encounter...and nearly his life. If not for a mysterious mermaid who emerges from the depths to save him.
Ione isn’t like the other Nereids. Her scales and hair aren’t as bold in color, and she has no desire to drown the mortals with whom she mates. So when a handsome mortal is left to die in the sea before her eyes, she can’t stop herself from saving him - and trading her fins for legs to follow him on land.
With only three days to determine if they belong together, the pair are caught in the midst of a sociopath’s schemes to tear James’ life asunder. But can the young marquess be stopped before he harms anyone else?

I got that line tattooed on my wrist the day I turned 21. So much symbolism in such a simple sentence. At the time, it was a nod to the future and the infinite possibilities to come, while reminding me to remember the past and to look for magic in the world.

Centuries ago, the skies turned black, and for 300 years, Londoners survived in the dank, underground tunnels of the city. Until one day, a stranger from a faraway land offered to save them. Though it wasn’t without cost...and he has come to collect. When Selene is taken to Master Blackburn’s infamous estate, she fears she and the orphans she’s sworn to protect will meet a gruesome end, like so many others before them. But the beastly landowner is not all there is to fear, and Selene soon learns nothing in Briarwood is as it seems.

When Leigh Austen's husband died in the jungles of Vietnam, her world collapsed. But two Halloweens later, she's ready to begin living her life again—starting by making amends with a longtime friend. Charming Dublin expat Michael Kelly runs the most popular Irish pub in Southie. But no crowd of high-tipping revelers has ever been as welcome a sight as that of Leigh walking through his door. Hiding his heart—and his bloodlust—from her was difficult enough when she was married. Now? It's impossible.

My college roommate is the worst. Cecile steals my food, brings guys over at all hours, and parties instead of studying. But those quirks pale in comparison to what she does next. She drugs me, and I wake up imprisoned in an alternate universe full of terrifying creatures. Now, the biggest and scariest creature of all - a fae king - believes I'm his mate. He's freed me from the dungeon but keeps me close. So close, in fact, that I'm beginning to like his wintery gaze and ice-chiseled body.

Wonderful Fantasy Historical Romance!
This was my first Rebekah Lewis's book, and won't be the last. This is the first book in the London Mythos Series. James and Ione are great opposites characters. They share a strong and instant attraction/love. Their story is so sweet, sexy, fun, and beautiful. This is a great Fantasy Tale and Historical Romance, and I enjoyed it so much! Now, I am looking forward for the next book in the Series. Megan Green did an amazing narration. I love her voice and beautiful accent.

Loved this original story
I really loved this story of finding love. Ione wishes for a different life. She looks to the mortal world of humans for her next adventure. Will she find the love she hopes for and would she give up her immortality to spend it with a human. Can’t wait to read more from this author. The narrator had to grow on me I wasn’t sure of her in the beginning but by the end I really liked her.

Rescued by a Sea Nymph
This is the first book I’ve ever listened to that was about a fantasy creature in the ocean and I absolutely LOVED it! The views is a Sea Nymph ad how they can choose to stay in the ocean or live on land if they have found love it a breathtaking listen. It is like an adult version of The Little Mermaid (which was my favorite when I was younger) so this book is just perfect.
The narration on this book is great as well. I loved the accent she had throughout this book.

Starfish Kisses, Mermaid Wishes, and a Secret
James is merely the third son of a viscount, a position where he won't inherit a title or a fortune, so he sets off to make his own. While the majority of his work as a ship's captain is legal, he has been known to smuggle a bit, something that could send him to the gallows. One night, he taken hostage by a band of men who want his ship and his beautiful sister. When he defies them, they cut off his hand and toss him into the sea.
Ione has drifted along in her underwater kingdom for years, the outcast of her flashier sisters. She wants more out of life than to breed with a human male and then send him to his grave. And when one in need of her help floats into her ocean, she can't help but go against every instinct she has, just to save his life.
Poseidon is feeling generous and gives James a hook for a hand and Ione three days on land to decide her future. But when the men that attacked James are still at large and everyone in the ton wants to know more about the mysterious beauty on his arm, three days might feel like a lifetime.
First of all, I love the gods and goddesses in London theme. They pop in and out of mortals' lives, sometimes doing good and sometimes tossing them to the Kraken. I'm really into the theme and I'm going to look into the rest of the books in the series to get my fix.
Ione is charming, funny, and practical beyond words when it comes to silly human rules like not being able to ride in a carriage with a man and not dancing the waltz too often. She is a modern woman in a mermaid world who doesn't need a man to be happy, but she wouldn't mind taking one for a spin. The whole book, I was rooting for her to get her guy, get her legs, and get everything else in the world she wanted. Sure, James is great too, but Ione is a smart mermaid with a quick wit, so she's my obvious favorite.
It's always so funny to me when a narrator goes from one extreme to the other without pause. The first work of Green's I listened to was a squeaky clean romance with a few pecks, but this book has a lot more steam than that! But I guess that's what's impressive about voice actors, they need to have a certain kind of flexibility to allow them to cover so many different kinds of works.
Overall, this book is funny, interesting, different, sexy without being erotic, and a must read...or listen. I'm really not picky, as long as you grab a copy.

Historic Fantasy Romance
Rescued by a Sea Nymph by Rebekah Lewis is a fantasy romance about a Sea Nymph that fell in love with a mortal man. I listened to this book on audio narrated by Megan Green. Megan Green did a great job narrating. I loved her accent throughout this book. This is the first book of Rebekah Lewis's that I have read and look forward to reading more of her books in the future. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes historical paranormal romances.
