Hell hath no fury like a faery scorned.
A man out of time:
Enchanted by a jealous faery, 13th century warrior and druid Faolan MacIntyre has his work cut out for him. In order to break his curse, he must entice a woman to fall in love with him. His love comes at the highest possible cost, however…for the woman.
A woman alone:
Rebuilding her life after an ugly divorce, merchandising director Colleen O’Brien lives vicariously through movies and romance novels. When the sexy bespelled Scot crash lands in her living room unannounced, her resolve to never love again is sorely tested. After admitting her love, Colleen finds herself in 14th century Ireland. Now she’s scared and alone, until Faolan finds her and they are both pursued by their jealous enemy.
Thrown together by destiny but held together by love, Faolan and Colleen must work together if they are to survive. But for two headstrong people–a man accustomed to giving orders and a woman who refuses to take them–it’s much easier said than done.

Colleen gasped, and a delicious shiver ran through her body as the heat of his nearness seeped into her skin. He must have felt it too, for his arm snaked around her waist and pulled her tightly against him. His other hand cupped her chin and tilted her face up. He slowly lowered his
lips to hers but the second before they touched, she became aware of an insistent ringing noise…
