First off,
I’d like to thank my sister. Without her encouragement, I never would have
started writing. I’d also like to thank Secret Cravings Publishing/Sweet
Cravings Publishing for believing in my work and giving me the opportunity to
become a published author. And finally, I’d like to thank Kyle Lewis, my
awesome editor who makes me grow as a writer every time I work with him.

When a fey
princess is abducted by one of the Blue Men of the Minch, she must look beyond
his blue skin to the man inside.
An excerpt
from your book.
The H.M.S.
Fairweather glided peacefully through the Minch, heading due north between the
island of Lewis and mainland Scotland. Caeden slowly moved his tail to keep
himself steady in the icy waters as he kept a close watch on the ship, hoping
for a glimpse of the young woman on board. He and his companions followed at a
safe distance. If they were spotted too soon, it could spell disaster for
Caeden and subject him to even more ridicule from his compatriots.
“Mighty fine
ship,” Fergus muttered, a mischievous gleam in his eye. “Sure wish we could
sink her.”
“We’re only
allowed the girl,” Duirkin said. The chosen leader for this rambunctious group
of Blue Men, Duirkin was an older man everyone respected.
Everyone,
that is, except Fergus, who respected no one but the chieftain, and him only
grudgingly. “Can’t we at least play with the sailors? Teach them to fear the
Minch?”
Caeden
missed Duirkin’s response, for over the rail of the ship appeared the face he
had longed to see. Framed by flowing, golden hair, the delicate features and
sparkling blue eyes gazing into the deep stole the oxygen from his gills. An
emerald green dress of shimmering fabric draped her slender body—a body which
had grown into that of a woman since he last saw her.
Although
years had passed since he had been taken by the sea witch and cursed to live as
a Blue Man, there was no mistaking Tara, his best friend and childhood crush.
Her memory had kept him going through many long, lonely nights and given him
hope that he might one day walk with her again along the shores of Garbh
Eilean. So much depended on her acceptance of him now, much more than his companions
knew—his very future was at stake.
