Shana Phillips is a moderately successful romance writer, but she has a big problem. Due to an almost crippling shyness, the only type of romance she experiences comes from the characters in her books. Wanting to write a story steeped in myth and magic, she lets her agent talk her into visiting the small village of Ballybree in County Meath, Ireland. Despite her agreement, though, the thought of all the attention she is bound to get terrifies her. She plans to spend as much time as possible alone in her rented cottage, but the residents of Ballybree have other ideas. First, there is Ronan O’Meara, the gorgeous, gray-eyed Irishman who is determined to court her. Then there is Fáelán, a magical being who treats her like a sister and swears they share a common ancestry. Finally, there are Kate and Zoe who break through her barriers to become her first friends and confidants. But even with all the extra support, will she be able to overcome her problems and find her own happy ending?
