Magically Delicious!What a awesome and fun read.  I think I smiled though most of the book while I read this story.  I love folk lore’s and myths and the author has taken the Selkie and Fin Men lore to a sizzling enticing hot level.  The author does a great job creating characters with electrifying charisma and capturing the hearts of a fantasy come true audience.  The author’s writing is smooth and visionary as it introduces more insight into the lore itself leaving the reader captivated till the last page.Mack is a beautiful male Selkie that is 593 years old and has come to a stage in his life where his biological clock is ticking and he has the uncontrollable urge to find his true mate and mayhap produce some pups (children).  Being sexually active and having a Bedding buddy “Ledia” seemed to be meaningless and lacking the emotional connection he longed for and it was time to find the love that he craved.I loved the way the author gives the explanation behind the Selkie’s demeanor and their sexual prowess.“Mating for life is typically their kinds fortae.  As a whole they weren’t always the most monogamous of creatures.  Most selkies appreciated their status as sexual genies and enjoyed the lure of new partners.”Never the less, if his parents could do it 600 years ago producing 7 sons then why couldn’t he.  2 of his brothers had already mated.  Calan and Maggie whom we were introduced to in the first book “The Selkie” along with Angus and Elsie giving birth to a baby girl pup Morgan.Beth Pedersen character has a beautiful soul within the hole in her heart.  Her story is tragic in how she lost her husband and son to the ocean.  My heart bleed for her and I could literally feel her sorrow.As the author reminds us of the Selkie Myth:“Cry seven tears into the sea, and if a woman was lucky, a selkie would answer that call and love her senseless.  If she was smart enough to steal his seal pelt, he would be hers until he stole it back.”Well cry Beth did as her soul was lost thanks to an evil Fin Men.  But as love and faith comes around the corner when we least expect it - miracles do happen.  Mack and Beth’s experience is heartwarming.  I totally melted in the book and couldn’t put it down.  Their erotic interludes were magically delicious and had me wanting to act like a froggy and jump my hubby when he came into the room.  Oh Man!  Those scenes were scorching hot! 5 flames Hot!  LOLThe plot was entertaining as the author introduces another part of lore and brings the meaning behind Mack’s purpose to fruition.  The Fin Men – you know how the grandmothers in Scotland would warn the youngsters away from the water’s edge saying“The Fin Men will get you”We might call them the bogeyman but lore has them as“dreaded shape-shifters who could live under the sea as well on land.  They love to abduct human women, ferrying them away to the magical island of Hildaland, and doing horrible things to them.”Overall, the story had the perfect ending leaving me all giddy inside and still dwelling on everything that happened in the story.  I love Scottish history and the myths behind their legends.  I recommend this awesome read to every reader who loves to be rescued by the sexy Selkie folk lore and taken away into their magical fantasy whelms.Excellent Read!
