BLURB:
It is time…
An ancient book, a power untouched, and a heart unloved lead Keelin O'Brien from her graduate studies in Boston to a small village on the coast of Southern Ireland. Determined to unearth the secrets lying hidden in the enchanted waters of the cove, Keelin has little time for a surly Irishman who infuriates her during the day and haunts her fantasies at night.
Inexplicably drawn to the woman who has stepped from his dreams and into his world, Flynn fights a stubborn battle against his increasing attraction for Keelin. Forces unknown have better plans for the two.
Only the secrets of the cove can show Keelin who she really is, the beauty of her mysterious power, and a love that will break the bounds of what she knows.
From New York Times Bestselling author, Tricia O'Malley, comes a new romance series set on the rocky shores of Ireland.

EXCERPT
"I suppose I should thank you," Keelin stuttered. She tried to regain her composure as she lifted her chin at him.
"Of all the…how do I end up with the woman that is stubborn as all get-out?" Flynn said to himself as he started the motor and whipped towards shore.
Keelin pulled the towel that he had handed around her and tried to get warm.
"You know, most women would have thrown themselves on me in gratitude. You know, promising anything I wanted? Offers of undying devotion? Baked goods? No. You can barely thank me." Flynn glared at her.
Keelin stared regally at him from across the boat. "I am sure I would have been fine. I just needed to cut across the current is all, and I was a bit disoriented."
"A bit? You were a quarter mile out! You were shark bait. A goner! What were you even thinking? Are you insane?" Flynn lost it as they motored quietly into the cove. His shouts echoed off the walls of the empty cove and Ronan went silent on the beach.
"Hey! You aren't the boss of me! I'll have you know that I am a trained diver. I study this. This is what I do."
"Trained? Hardly! If you were trained you would know not to go diving alone and perhaps maybe to study the waters ahead of time and know that there is a nine-knot current that runs outside the cove. Had I not been out fishing today and heard your cry for help you would have been gone in minutes!" Flynn cut the motor and raged at her.
Keelin stood up on shaky legs and yelled at him.
"I'll have you know that I am a professional!"
"A professional pain in the ass!"
They were nose to nose in the rocking boat. Keelin's breath huffed out and her chest heaved.
Flynn sighed and laid his forehead against hers, surprising her. "Just. Just don't ever do that again. Please."

DeleteWhat did you love most about the place you grew up? What about it did you love the least?
ReplyDeleteSadly, I don't think Tricia saw your question, Mai. Personally, I loved all of the pets and neighborhood animals I grew up with. Unfortunately, it wasn't a very safe area, so that I loved the least!
DeleteI really enjoyed your excerpt for this book. Thank you for this opportunity.
