Book Description
When a handsome, shapeshifting fairy sets his heart on a mortal woman who is tired of her hustle-and-bustle life, it makes for a St. Patrick’s Day neither of them will ever forget.
Larkin has refused to disappear from his native Ireland, even though his kind are now only considered the stuff of legends. Lonely for companionship and the sensation of a soft, mortal maiden to share his bed, he is intrigued when, for the first time in ages, a woman is actually able to see him.
Seeking refuge from her tense corporate lifestyle, Jolene travels to a small Irish town to visit an old school chum. Secretly, she longs for more than just peace and quiet. She wants the love of a real man —- one who is not afraid to sweep a woman off her feet and possess her completely. One night she is followed home by a black, fiery-eyed steed who has the shocking ability to speak. In a deep, enchanting voice he summons her to join him.
He is the pooka. A mythic creature who somehow seems to know the deepest desires of her very soul —- and he wants nothing more than to make her his woman.
