I wouldn't go so far as to call it pure crap, but there was more I didn't like than what I did like.  I like shapeshifters, paranormal, aliens, alternate dimensions, menage, some bdsm and fantasy so I thought this set would be really great for me.  I really, really don't like when a supposedly strong and independent woman is turned into a mindless slave or pet at best.  It's really irritating to have the mindset switch from independent to puppet from one breath to the next because someone is a good kisser or looks hot.  Even if it is fantasy, I can't help but wonder what effect it would have on someone's psyche to be stripped, know you are losing all memory of your past identify, sequestered for years with no outside stimulus, and left alone to wait for someone to take you off the shelf to play with when they feel like it.  When any of these concerns are brought up, the really assuring comment is, "you'll learn to live with it."  I did kind of like the author thinking outside the box on selkies.  It had a different twist.  But It still was another instance of the woman giving up everything and the male nothing.
