Lord of Horses: A Gothic Scottish Fairy Tale (Bright Spear Trilogy)

Sometimes a villain is not a villain, and first impressions have to change…When the disgraced kelpie of Loch Lomond, Murdoch, discovers a new threat to his homeland, he finds a loophole in his banishment to show up at Sorcha Darrow’s door. Despite initial misgivings about Murdoch’s plea for help, Sorcha quickly agrees to help the creature out of guilt for what she did to him two years ago in the faerie realm.Lachlan, now the King of the Seelie Court, is less than happy about the kelpie’s reappearance by Sorcha’s side. Fuelled by jealousy and possessiveness he considers once more finding out his mortal paramour’s full name in order to take her away from Murdoch forever. But trouble is brewing between the Seelie and Unseelie Courts, and Murdoch and Sorcha – now travelling down to London to deal with the threat to their home – may just be caught in the middle of it.The second book in the Bright Spear trilogy, Lord of Horses is loosely based on the Celtic fairy tale of The Kelpie Bride, and features a cameo from Scarlett and Adrian from Big, Bad Mister Wolfe (Chronicles of Curses book 1).NOTE: Lord of Horses is written in UK (British) English, not American English.Praise for Lord of Horses:"The author manages to make characters who should be classified as the villain easy to root for. Her stellar world building contributes to the overall feeling of a setting that is permeated with magic and the supernatural, where even the mirror hanging on a wall can be more than it seems. Her world of faerie is everything dark and chilling underneath the sparkling, attractive veneer one could hope for." Amazon.com reviewer"I'm such a huge fan of this series....It's just the right combination of mystical atmosphere and romance. If you had told me that the villain in the first book was going to be the hero (and love interest) in the second book I would never have believed it, but it works so well." Amazon.com reviewer"This is a brilliant read. Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start. Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believeable. Great suspense and action with wonderful world building that adds so much to the story." Amazon.co.uk reviewer
