About the book
Along the coast of Scotland, they tell the tale of a magical creature from the sea who can take the form of an irresistible man--and seduce a mortal woman. The legend, born in ancient times, still persists in the Victorian Age... Beautiful Meg MacNeill never thought of herself as an heiress, let alone one of the richest, most eligible women in all of Scotland. Her humble upbringing in the Western Isles, and her secret child--born of a magical night and a mysterious man--make her role in glittering Edinburgh Society as Lady Strathlin seem unlikely, even dangerous. Especially when she comes face to face with her devastatingly attractive enemy--a man who has a foot in both her worlds, and even her past--for Dougal Stewart will threaten her home, her inheritance, and most of all her heart...
