The last mermaid

  • 1 Want to read

531 a.d.: The tiny island of Kell is said to be enchanted, inhabited by an extraordinary creature who comforts shipwrecked sailors passing into the next world. Prince Aedan of the Isles believes in no such nonsense—until he awakens on Kell itself and meets the sensuous siren who rescued him from the sea.

1721: Ronan MacMhuirich, Earl of Kell, is the target of an unlikely assassin: Leila, a mysterious woman from an exotic land. But his irresistibly beautiful would-be slayer is in just as much danger as Ronan when she falls for this man with a magic of his own.

2004: What do you do when you inherit a Scottish island you never knew existed—and find yourself pursued by a handsome stranger who wants to buy it from you? That’s what happens to Ruri Kell when she accepts Iain MacInnes’s invitation to visit her birthright, and listens to a proposition as sinfully tempting as everything else about him.

Three seductive love stories, three passionate couples, all linked by one of the most romantic myths of all.

Excerpts

"The what?” the Scot inquired, in a softly chilled sort of way. “Siren,” Io repeated, less certain now. “Haven't you — don't you know about Kell?”

It seemed impossible that he didn't. Kell was of the ages, and so was the curse. She thought all humans knew of it. She thought—oh, God, she thought he knew.

All her life Io had imagined the lands beyond her island. She had not far to imagine their shores; on balmy nights she swam close enough to taste the smoke of the fishing villages, to hear the boasting of the men as they cleaned their catches, to peer into cottage windows and espy wives and widows and clamoring children.
