His time is running out—but she makes him wish he had forever.

A stoic warrior chieftain. A wild fae huntress. A forbidden, impossible love. Dive into a standalone Celtic Romantasy set in the mist-wreathed world of Albia, where Scottish folklore comes to life.

Tadhg mac Cormac will do anything to save his daughter when she falls gravely ill. He’ll even make a bargain with the Bean Liath, a faerie who grants wishes … at a price. Unfortunately, in return he must give up his own life.

One year is all he has left.

Tadhg isn’t concerned with his own fate though. His people are in conflict with the Shee—the fae race who live to the north, and he doesn’t want to die before securing peace.

With three months left to live, he catches a Shee huntress poaching on his lands.

Fern Sablebane has chosen exile—a solitary life in the wilds, where she traps animals and sells their fur. Defiant and sharp-tongued, she is utterly unimpressed by the dour chieftain who has captured her.

And Tadhg can’t waste what little time he has left dealing with her either.

But when he discovers she once served in the Elk King’s personal guard, he offers her an exchange: if she helps him negotiate peace, she can hunt on his lands for as long as she wishes.

Reluctantly, Fern agrees to help him, and together they set off to meet with her king. However, as they travel, she finds herself warming to the doomed, selfless chieftain. But that doesn’t mean they’re friends or that she trusts Tadhg.

One thing is for certain, though—she’ll never fall for him.
