Michaela Grant travels to Scotland for a holiday, knowing this vacation is her last. A medical condition threatens her life and any chance of a future—until she meets Alan MacLachlin, a man forced to exist between two worlds.
Alan is the legendary Loch Ness Monster. Once every fifty years he returns to human form in search of his soul mate, the one woman who can break his curse. He believes he has found forever with Michaela, but to claim it he must figure out how to save her life.
Michaela and Alan vow to take what time has to offer, but another threat looms. A sinister shape shifter with a vendetta against Alan is making Loch Ness his personal hunting ground. Now he’s threatening Michaela. Alan must discover who the shifter is and stop him before it’s too late.
Update: This takes place a few paragraphs later from snippet #10. Druid Daly spares Gordana's son, but Gordana is not so lucky. He tells the clan even though the well is under water, it still needs to be protected. Druid Daly raises his staff and points it at Gordana. Lightning strikes her, releasing the magic...
*************************************************************************************************
Gordana screamed withering on the ground as bright energy encased her body, shifting it, changing it. Bones popped, elongated, and skin stretched, darkening to gray as an enormous creature with a long neck and tail emerged.
Druid Daly spoke again. “Ye have failed to guard the well in yer human state. Ye shall guard it in a more suitable skin.”
Ronson’s eyes widened in fear as he stumbled back. A woman grabbed Gordana’s child less he be trampled by the monster Gordana had become.
“Ye cannae do this,” Alan said as he pushed his way through the crowd.
*************************************************************************************************
Gordana's brother is confronting Druid Daly. Yikes! He's either stupid or very brave. Which do you think he is?
