Synopsis:
For Keiran Saysin, protecting the fairy population from humans is more than a job. It is passion and his duty to the realm. Since Eero’s revolution failed—and the discovery of fairy power lying dormant in some of the human population, that job hasn’t been easy. Now that his sister and her husband are welcoming a set of twins, old enemies have come out of hiding, hoping the children will a serve as a key to reclaiming what has been stripped from them.
Enter Annie Valentine, the genetic researcher Daniel’s mother has employed. Keiran knows the smart thing to do is cast a spell and push the human away, but something about the way she stands toe to toe and eye to eye has him forgetting that getting involved with a human could cost him everything he values, including his power.
*Excerpt*
He let out a long, labored sigh, softening his posture and stepping toward her. As arrogant and stubborn as he’d been, he’d also been gentle and caring about the babies. His smile showed off an adorable dimple, and the cool and detached façade she desperately tried maintain melted. He eased in a step closer and let his hand brush her arm. “Annie. That’s your name, right? There are a lot of things going on here that you don’t understand.”
A sense of calm came over her, climbing her arm accompanied by a tingle and melting the stress from her shoulders. She couldn’t help but feel compassion for this Keiran. A voice, her own, rang in her head saying the children were fine. It repeated itself. “I would never forgive myself if I said nothing and something happened to the babies. Their safety should come first.”
“Everyone in this house wants the same thing.”
His touch had brought with it a wave of confidence that radiated and pulsed in her head: everything is just fine; you’re overreacting. Wouldn’t it be better to be sure? “You’re probably right. Maybe it’s the scientist in me, but I would feel better if a medical doctor looked at the children.”
He shifted his weight from one leg to the other. Her mind should be on the kids, on Daniel’s wife who’d just given birth in a remote farmhouse, but her focus was on the cut of this guy’s jeans and the way the blue T-shirt encased his beefy chest like a glove.
“It’s so refreshing to meet someone who really cares about others, especially children. But I need you to trust me.” Slowly he raised his hand, reaching out for her…cheek? No, he was going higher. To touch her hair?

“Don’t do it, Keiran.”
He tore his eyes from hers and spun his body toward his brother-in-law’s voice. “Your place is with my sister and your children, Daniel. Leave the security of everyone in this house to me.”
“I’m quite happy to leave you to your job, but Monique doesn’t want you to do this.”
What was Keiran doing besides talking to her? And why did that upset Monique?“I’m quite happy to leave you to your job, but Monique doesn’t want you to do this.”
