Description
Discover the magic that's been hiding in plain sight...
Eala Duir, a brilliant but restless college professor, has always felt drawn to the mysteries of a world just beyond reach-where folklore and reality blur. Her obsession with tales of the Fae has shaped her academic life, but it's the vivid daydreams of enchanted battles and ghostly encounters that leave her yearning for more.
When a cryptic message in her grandmother's will calls her to Ireland, Eala's world is turned upside down. There, she meets Sionnach Loho, a handsome, enigmatic expert on local folklore. Their initial clash sets the stage for an even greater revelation: a ghostly encounter at an ancient, haunted castle sends them on a quest that's been centuries in the making.
Sionnach reveals a shocking truth-Eala is connected to the Fae world in ways she never imagined. Chosen by Finnbheara, King of the Connacht Fae, she must team up with Sionnach to fulfill an age-old prophecy. But as the line between folklore and reality fades, Eala must choose: embrace the dangerous, magical world calling to her-or return to the safety of the predictable life she's always known.
The Fae are real. The quest is life-or-death. And Eala's journey is only just beginning.
