In the Mists of Time (19 page)

Don't miss the other titles in Marie Treanor's In… Series!

Every dream can come true…in unexpected ways.

The only time Glenn Brody acted on the waking dreams his mother called second sight, he landed in prison for a crime he didn't commit. Now he keeps himself grounded in the real world, turning a neglected Scottish mansion into a co-op that gives ex-cons a second chance.

He's almost managed to ignore the persistent, erotically charged dreams featuring a beautiful, passionate woman—until that woman accosts him in the street to ask for a job.

In hiding from her violent ex, Izzy Ross has made a peaceful life for herself and her young son in the isolated Highland village of Ardknocken. Handsome men with a criminal record aren't high on her list, but when work dries up, she's forced to ask Glenn for a menial cleaning job at the big, dusty house.

Their mutual attraction turns all their preconceived notions upside down, and stirs the mansion's legendary ghost. Attracting the kind of media attention that could force Glenn to make a perilous choice to save the woman he's grown to love.

Warning: Contains a mansion full of unlikely heroes, liberal and colorful use of Scottish slang, a medieval ghost, and enough hot sex to spice up the chilliest Highland night.

Desire beyond imagination…danger that's all too real.

A sequel to
In His Wildest Dreams

World-weary, burned-out undercover cop Aidan Grieve's latest assignment has brought him home to the Highland village he couldn't wait to leave, but something's definitely wrong in Ardknocken.

When did his parents get so frail? What is his sister thinking, befriending the chief suspects in his investigation—the ex-cons of Ardknocken House? And why can he barely control his instant attraction to the house's beautiful manager?

Her mind and body still mending from a vicious attack, ex-parole officer Chrissy Lennox isn't ready for a complication like the charming, empathetic, gorgeous Aidan, a restless adrenaline junkie for whom this sleepy village has never been big enough.

Yet as easily as the meddling selkies shed their skins, desire strips away their hesitation, and not even the cold Scottish sea can cool the fire. But as Aidan's investigation progresses, so does the danger—revealing secrets that could leave their hearts in pieces.

Warning: When our hero is good, he's very good…but when he's bad, he's delicious! Also contains lusty, mischievous selkies who'll steal your heart with one flipper while stealing your underwear with the other.
