There is a tale that cautions young maidens to keep from the loch's edge. They say the Kelpie tempts the unwary to climb atop it's back so that it may careen into the loch and drown them, ready to devour. 
There is a tale that cautions nighttime travellers against lonely roads. They say the Green Hound, the Faerie Dog, will paralyse you with it's eerie barking and rip out your throat. Or that the phantom hitch-hiker will haunt your vehicle, causing accidents and deaths. 
There is a tale that cautions young children to cover their faces on the night of Samhain, to confuse the Unseelie Hunt and stop them from replacing the mortals with Changeling copies. 
Just simple wives tales. 
Not if you're a member of Alba's Institute of the Supernatural. Like Alexandra Spire. 
The AIS exists to study and monitor such beings, and to keep all creatures safe from others and themselves. Spire knows better than most how dangerous this can be. You see, Spire's own mother was a Faerie. A murderous one.

One Scottish Lass A Regency Time Travel Romance Novella by lisasheaauthor
11 parts Complete
Samhain. All Hallows' Eve. The most mystical night of the year. The time when the veil between the worlds became perilously thin. And with a full moon overhead, this awesome power reaches its climactic height. Sorcha had no time for mystical nonsense - there were enough challenges in navigating the mine-field of her mother's vicious temper and the most important event of her young life. For, at long last, she had left Edinburgh to see the world. She and her mother were visiting the elegant city of Bath. Sorcha was wearing the finest dress she'd seen - and she was stepping into a life she'd only dreamt of. But when Johnny's eyes meet hers, and jealous rivals vow revenge, that delicate layer between what is and what once was rips. It shreds like the fragile thread of one's life. One Scottish Lass is the first novella in the regency time travel romance trilogy. It is 116 pages / 18,000 words. The second novella in the series is A Time Apart. The first two novellas end in cliffhangers, while the third provides a happy ending. The series then will continue in another trilogy - those will be coming out over the coming weeks. These stories are teen-friendly with no explicit language, violence, or intimacy. All proceeds benefit battered women's shelters. Note that for those who prefer reading books in all-in-one form, each trio of novellas will also be compiled as a completed box set once all three are done. It just means you have to be patient and wait for me to finish writing all of them :). For those who prefer to read along as I write, and offer suggestions for me to shape the plot, these novellas are here for your enjoyment! Either way, I'd love to hear your feedback on the storyline and characters.

But when her father is chosen to oversee the integration and safety of the human race within the new world, Davyna is forced to be in the absolute last place she ever wanted to be - and although she sees some good in these creatures, she struggles to accept being among them harmoniously, and chooses to close herself off to most. That is, until she meets a certain werewolf and vampire. As wars brew, secrets arise, and identities are discovered, will Davyna rise up and embrace her place in the supernatural world?

Which is why she was relieved when her father went missing 5 years ago. She'd finally be able to quit hunting for good, live her normal, apple pie life with her perfect boyfriend, and go to college, just like she'd dreamed of since a little girl. Just like her big brother encouraged her to. His life was ruined because of hunting, but her life doesn't have to. But that Ill-fated dream is squashed when her brother stops returning her phone calls, and 1 week later, Dean Winchester, a childhood friend who she hasn't seen for 6 years, breaks into her apartment and tells her that the disappearance of her brother and both their fathers is all somehow connected to her. Now, she's sucked right back into the life she so desperately fought to get out of.
