The first thing I would like to do is apologize for taking so long to get this book out to you. I had intended to publish it last summer but my surgical recovery and the rest of life got in the way. I hope to do better with Book 3. I know that anticipation is supposed to create interest, but it can also frustrate, so I promise to do better.
Here’s the blurb:
Marina Fraser continues her journey of self-discovery as she returns to her place of birth, the Isle of Lewis and Harris. Now that she’s accepted that her body contains two souls, her own, born of the land, and that of Merrow, daughter of the merking and born of the sea, she inches ever closer to fulfilling her destiny as the Chosen One. All she needs to do is find true love—something that has eluded her time and time again.
At her lawyer’s urging, she takes a vacation on the way to the island, visiting London, Edinburgh, and Inverness, the cities Anna Frost mentioned when she delivered the news of her inheritance, news someone tried to prevent her from getting. An encounter at the airport in London serves as a reminder that the Dark Lord isn’t the only one after her. But she has another problem. Merrow is silent and the psychic abilities Marina was just beginning to appreciate start malfunctioning. How will she identify her enemies without the benefit of her ESP?
She arrives on the island during a vicious storm. A gorgeous man meets her at the airport and takes her to Fraser Hall. He reminds her of her phantom lover, and she’s deeply attracted to him. At the Hall, she rescues a black kitten and has another surprise, a second man appears, one who attracts her as strongly as the first. Is one of these her true love? The one she has to choose? She must choose of her own freewill to fulfill the prophecy. This isn’t the homecoming she anticipated, and when someone leaves a threatening note, Marina realizes that Fraser Hall could well be the death of her.
Jerome Morrison continues his search for his mystery woman, and heads home to the Isle of Lewis and Harris, determined to learn more about his adoption and speak to the stones—that is if they’ll speak to him. Desperate to protect the stones and his future, he will do everything he can to find his mystery woman. Discovering that she is none other than Lady Fraser comes as a shock, especially when not only does she not recognize him, she doesn’t trust him. Convincing her to do so may be harder than he expects, since he has competition for her affections.
Teine, the Dark Lord, grows stronger every day. With the vessel housing the daughter of the merking and he who should never have existed on their way to him and the Sacred Place, he awaits his liberation. This time, she will be his and no one, not even the gods, can stop him.

Mara Howard hates the cold and everything that goes with a traditional winter in Canada. When she wins a Christmas vacation to Miami, it seems too good to be true. Will this be the holiday she wants, or the holiday she needs?
For the past five years, she’s dedicated her days to mothering the sweet five-year-olds who cross the threshold into her classroom every day and her evenings to Doug Austin, the down-to-earth electrician she intended to marry. But those plans went up in flames when Doug accepted a job in the Yukon, the last place someone who abhors winter, cold, and snow as much as she does would ever consider living.
Rudy Sandcastle returned to his hometown after his wife’s death. Now, the screenwriter lives with his aunt and helps her with her small inn while she assists him in raising his precocious five-year-old daughter, Callie, a child on the hunt for a new mommy. Sadly, unless things improve, the town and the inn’s days are numbered. He needs to find a way to bring tourists to the area this Christmas season, and a contest offering a free vacation may be his chance to do just that. Who wouldn’t want to star in an online travelogue?
Determined not to spend the Christmas holidays bemoaning her fate, Mara gets online looking for an affordable vacation. What could be better than spending Christmas with sun, sand, and sea for company? An online contest for an all-expense-paid Christmas vacation in Miami is exactly what she needs to kickstart a new plan.
But when things are too good to be true, they usually are. It was all in the fine print, but who bothers to read that? A name is just a name, or is it? This Christmas vacation promises to be one she’ll never forget.
