For centuries, Gamekeepers have used their magical abilities to create a buffer between the creatures who dwell in the enchanted forest and the sleepy coastal town that sits in its shadow. When Gamekeeper Stan Ross’s magic begins to fail, he must find out what went wrong, then fix it before the two worlds collide. His hit or miss magic has already led to a few close calls so he journeys to the Sacred Isle searching for answers and advice. Finding a cure proves elusive—until Stan encounters a kitchen witch who captivates him body and soul. Lynnette Peters is healing from her own wounds, however, and it isn’t clear whether she’s ready to open herself to the possibility—or the peril—of love.

 

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT

 

“There’s always risk, Lynnette,” he said. “But like I told you that day in the bakery, the possibility that things won’t work out for us isn’t a reason not to try. You said that you weren’t sure how much of what’s between us is fantasy, and how much is reality, and I know you’re worried that the reality of our everyday lives won’t be enough to carry us through. That’s okay. Even people who are perfect for each other are going to have doubts and misgivings, but if they care enough, they’ll take a leap of faith. Otherwise, they’ll spend their life wondering about what might have been, if they’d had the courage to jump.”

 

“I’m beginning to realize that,” she said. “I’ve been regretting what I said to you in the bakery that day. I sent you away because I feared what might happen if I opened myself up to you, but I already care about you too much to just forget you. You’ve found your way into my heart, and I haven’t been able to dislodge you, so I’m just going to have to learn to live with it.”

 

“Does that mean you’re ready to take a leap of faith?” he asked, leaning in toward her.

 

In answer, she turned her face up to receive his kiss. His arms encircled her waist and drew her down onto the blanket beside him, and it turned out that the magic between them was real after all.
