This was supposed to be her year. However, after losing her job and discovering her fiancé cheating, Maggie Collins has her doubts. When her grandmother dies, she hits rock bottom. Maggie travels to her grandmother’s home in Orkney, Scotland to sort through her gran’s things, only to discover the old woman has left her a seal pelt as her inheritance. She also learns that others are after the pelt.To add to her frustration, Maggie’s dreams are filled with luscious images of a long-haired man, images that draw her to the magical beaches in Orkney. Although she’s lost her trust in men, this dream man inspires her with a lust she’s never known before. Calan Kirk has also been dreaming. Dreaming of Maggie, the mortal woman who arouses him as no other woman ever has. Meeting her in the flesh when she arrives in Orkney is nothing short of spontaneous sexual combustion. But she is a human, and not to be trusted. He needs the seal pelt, not a red-haired temptress.As a thief ransacks Maggie’s grandmother’s house, Maggie and Calan are thrust together. They must search for the animal skin, a mythical relic which once found, will either bring them together or rip them apart forever.

What a great story. You can't read this book and not feel for Maggie. Callen started off as quite the player and I was doubtful of how the book would turn out. But everything just fell together so nicely. There were no loose ends. It wasn't one of those love at first sight type of books. There aren'...

I just could not get into the whole seal shifter aspect of this book. No matter how many times the author described Calan I could not think of him as such. I pictured a flabby middle aged man who had no sex appeal. And as I continue the book it was becoming more difficult to finish. I would have lik...
I enjoyed this book - my first by this author - and devoured it in a day. The story was fast-paced. The characters were likable (the older ladies cracked me up!). The passion was steamy. The love was sweet. Perfect combination for me.
