"Breen has just returned to Talamh, this time with her friend Marco beside her. He is understandably dazzled and disoriented by this realm--a place filled with dragons and faeries and mermaids (but no Wi-Fi, to his chagrin). In Talamh, Breen is something more than the ordinary young schoolteacher he knew her as, and she has become far more powerful since leaving behind the mother who once kept her confined, timid, and unaware of her true nature. Here, he is welcomed kindly by her people, as well as by Keegan, leader of the Fey. Keegan has trained Breen as a warrior and fought by her side-and his yearning for her has grown along with his admiration of her strength and skills. But there is a member of Breen's bloodline who is not there to embrace her--far from it. Her grandfather, the outcast god Odran, plots to destroy Talamh. Now all must guard against his spies and scouts and unite to defeat his dark forces, to protect the portals that keep the ruthless enemy out of this place of peace and beauty. There will be losses and sorrows. There will be betrayal and bloodshed. But through it all, Breen Siobhan Kelly, with friends, family, and her faithful dog at her side, will take the next step on the journey to becoming all that she was born to be."-- Provided by publisher.
