Synopsis (Goodreads):
He’ll cross oceans for her…Thoughts on The Ballast's Bride: The 2nd of the giants is up and his special lady friend is the lonely human he's been guarding. Finding out some human women might be open to a relationship with a giant opens up a world of opportunities Hinrivik hadn't even considered and he finds himself unwilling to let her travel to the colony alone. So he joins her as her protector and, well, THINGS HAPPEN.
Skarr giant Hinrivik has been in love with the human he guards for years. But when her marriage is arranged—and he’s assigned to deliver her to her groom across the sea—he loses hope that she’ll ever return his feelings.
When they arrive at their destination, she’ll step off the ship into her new life as someone else’s wife. Can Hinrivik convince her to consider him, a wildly mismatched monster, as her mate? He’ll have to do it before they reach the other shore…because breaking her marriage contract could easily start a war.
BUT WAIT. First, there's a lot of undercurrents in Mimma's arranged marriage. I mean, A LOT. The colony she's heading to has rules and cultural challenges that Mimma has never been exposed to. Having been raised by Nightborn, Mimma doesn't see the Nightborn in the same light as the colony humans and this alone causes issues. Not to mention the man who has appointed herself as her human guardian on the trip is not the best person ever. At all. So it turns out that Mimma really does need a protector and Hinri is the only person she can truly rely on as they travel.
On Hinri's end, once he decides to shoot his shot, things move forward for these two. It takes creativity and a little patience, but they get where they need to be.
A dangerous journey (in more ways than one), a family reunion, hope for the future, a giant who will do anything for his special someone (even spend an extended period of time on a cramped ship), and a human woman who loves hard and likes her male girthy. GOOD TIMES!
