BLURB:
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.

EXCERPT
An as-you-live-and-breathe troll was her MysticMingle match
for the evening.
Troll-kin or not, she did her best to engage her date in
conversation, but her ‘date’ seemed incapable of responding with anything more
than one-word answers and occasional grunts. When the server returned to take
their order, it was almost a relief.
“I’ve heard the gumbo is good here,” Lynnette said. “But the
roasted vegetable ragout sounds delicious—root vegetables, garlic, lemongrass
and spring chives, all served with lashings of butter. I’ll go with that, I
think.”
The waitress jotted down her order and turned expectantly to
her companion.
“Svith,” he grunted.
The waitress wrinkled her nose. “I’m not sure if that is
something Chef can prepare.”
“Svith,” her companion insisted, slapping a crooked-knuckled
hand on the table.
“Okay,” she replied, holding up a hand. “I’ll ask him to
make it just for you.”
Unfamiliar with the dish, Lynnette asked her date—who had
introduced himself by slapping his chest and saying Stink Foot with a
discernable note of pride—about it while they waited for their food to arrive.
“Svith good,” he said, but didn’t elaborate.
She had to wait until a large platter was set in front of
him to understand what the fuss was about. The dish consisted of half a boiled
sheep’s head, the hair singed off, floating in a greasy broth. Watching her
date tuck into his svith was enough to turn Lynnette off her ragout, but she
struggled through a few tentative bites.
Then he scooped the eye out of its socket with a spoon and
presented it to her. “Try svith?”
