The Knight of Wands

Book One
The Knights of Avalon

He’s a possessive Scottish lion with a dark secret; she’s a rebellious English socialite who won’t be pinned down. What’s in the cards for these star-crossed lovers?

Vanessa Bentley awakens in a Scottish inn with a hangover and a hunk—Callum Lyon, the sexy Leo the rebellious socialite came to John o’Groats to seduce. So why is she under the covers fully dressed while he’s on the couch? Did she pick a good guy for a change?

Callum has the good looks typical of his sign, but also the leonine possessiveness—the last thing the free-spirited Aquarian wants. Vanessa soon learns they are opposites in other ways, too: she’s a social butterfly, he’s a recluse; she’s an out-front activist, he stays behind the scenes; she’s vegetarian, he drinks blood; she’s mortal, he’s a Knight of Avalon, a shape-shifting dark faery who was once court astrologer to King James IV.

Callum, ready to take a mate after centuries of solitude, calls Vanessa mo dearbadan-de—“my butterfly” in Gaelic—because she flies away before any man can catch her. Vanessa claims it’s because she values liberty over romance, but deep down is afraid anyone who sees her flaws will cut and run.

To win her heart and her trust, Callum must fight his desire to pin her down—even when she lands in trouble that threatens to expose his dark secret and ruin his life.
