The old place in the small town of Folk Haven is a reminder of her father’s mental decline in the last few years of his life. She’s just come to town to clear the thing out and get it ready to sell. Delta never even planned to dip a toe in the water until a prone body floating has her diving in to save the swimmer. A selkie will know their mate when they are rescued. Calder MacNamara wasn’t in need of saving, but he certainly appreciates the effort. Especially when the hands on his bare skin warm him to his core. The moment he meets the woman’s piercing stare, his gut tells him she’s his life partner. But he soon finds that if Delta feels anything toward him, it’s annoyance. Accidentally insulting her dog doesn’t help his case. With Delta’s focus on the road out of town, Calder scrambles to discover what, if anything, could make her stay. He’s willing to use all means of pleasure at his disposal to convince his mate that Folk Haven is the perfect place to call home. Especially if you’re a mythical creature. Discover the magical town of Folk Haven, where many of the townsfolk know their neighbors are creatures of legend. This 40k word novel is book 1 in the series, a standalone story perfect for fans of Molly Harper, Kresley Cole, and Gena Showalter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celtic folklore speaks of a people that are part human/part seal. They are called Selkies; sometimes they come to shore to sunbathe, removing their seal skin and leaving them prey for fisherman to steal and hide. If this happens they have to marry him and have his children. Though many Selkies are happily married they still always seem to feel drawn back to the sea and their seal families, even at the cost of leaving behind ones they love on land. After years of searching many find their hidden skin and return to the sea as a seal staying close, keeping watch over them from the great sea. The children left behind are sometimes called Darkies because of their dark eyes and hair with pale skin from the Selkie bloodline. Most descendants of the Selkie feel a very strong connection with the ocean, the call of its waves, and a kinship with the seal.
