Well the good people of Edinburgh have been convinced by a boy who can see them and hear them. He’s being heralded as The Fairy Boy of Leith! What’s more, through him, the fairies have predicted the lottery numbers and the whole of Edinburgh seems to be playing the lucky numbers. While giddy hysteria is overtaking the city, much to The Patronii’s dismay, a vicious attack on Iona’s spirit guide means her head isn’t in the game. Livia, fearsome and fascinating in equal measure, is sent to get Edinburgh back under control and stop all this fairy nonsense once and for all, utilising Iona as her weapon. If that wasn’t enough to be contending with, Iona is torn between Henry, passionate about the rights of the supernatural, and laidback Andy, with his quiet confidence. A Halloween party leads Iona into real danger. Despite bring dressed as a Rubik’s Cube and doing the Monster Mash, she is forced to put her powers to the test and finds out that she is capable of doing far more than she even imagined. In the end, though, Iona needs to decide just whose side she’s on and it’s not just lives at stake, it’s the fate of a whole race. Naught’s so queer, as supernatural folk. less

Though their love is new, Iona knows that it’s special and she won’t let him leave without taking on his kelpie kin and fighting for him.

He must go home and choose a wife, and she can’t be human, she can’t be Iona. Though their love is new, Iona knows that it’s special and she won’t let him leave without taking on his kelpie kin and fighting for him. But first she has her own supernatural mess to deal with. A world leading Dutch research institute, The Hanegraaf, has replicated her research and found validated proof of psi abilities. They’ve invited her to come view their facilities, collaborate on their advancement of her work and present their findings at an international scientific conference. Everything quickly turns sinister, forcing Iona to neutralise the situation by mind-zapping more people than ever before and she is entirely alone, apart from Rain…and Henry. She just about makes it back into Andy’s arms, when the kelpie world is rocked by a crisis, one of them has been seen… Not just seen but actually filmed in HD. Iona must find a way to make it all disappear and win the trust of Andy’s Queen and King, so she can be his One. You'll never look at water the same way again! less

Iona is devastated when Andy leaves and struggles to hold it together, day by day, but soon realises something is very wrong indeed. She’s pregnant and that should be impossible. Reconciliation with Andy does not come easily and the Kelpies struggle to accept what’s growing inside her, even her mind turns against her as she is driven slowly mad, lashing out, hurting not only herself... moreIona is devastated when Andy leaves and struggles to hold it together, day by day, but soon realises something is very wrong indeed. She’s pregnant and that should be impossible. Reconciliation with Andy does not come easily and the Kelpies struggle to accept what’s growing inside her, even her mind turns against her as she is driven slowly mad, lashing out, hurting not only herself. With no other options left, The Enforcer is called, can he save Iona? Are his blood ties stronger than his loyalty to the Patronii, even though he is their beating heart and their greatest weapon? Just as Loch Maree works its age-old magic, devastation strikes the Kelpies as their very waters are poisoned, one by one old and young fall and uncontaminated water becomes the most precious commodity of all. Can the kelpies be saved? Will Andy wake up? As Iona’s labour approaches, will anyone be alive to help? And what exactly will be born? The fate of the whole Kelpie race lies in the hands of one man and he is vampire. less
