A lonely seer who hears the dead. A selkie bound to haunted waters. And one very opinionated chihuahua.
Ivy Deveraux has learned to live with ghosts—literally. Between tarot readings, sleepless nights, and spectral interruptions on every first date, peace is a luxury she’s never known. But when the spirits of Silver Deep Lake begin to scream, Ivy follows their cries straight to the water’s edge… and the man who quiets them with a single touch.
Ronan isn’t just a fisherman—he’s a selkie, guardian of the lake and bound by an ancient pact between sea and coven. His magic soothes the restless dead, but it’s Ivy’s warmth that makes him ache for something more.
As Halloween nears and something dark stirs beneath the lakebed, love might be the only magic strong enough to save them both.
