A Braunach desperate to atone for his sins 

A woman with the ability to heal lost children 

He's certain she can save his son 

But can she save him from himself? 

Patrick MacDonald, a Braunach from 19th century Ireland, surrendered to a Banshee's seduction four years ago. This resulted in a son, and the little boy is troubled and withdrawn. Patrick uses his uncle's enchanted amber to jump to the future to find some way to save his son. 

Tara Connor's work in the behavior lab at the Children's Hospital in Indianapolis challenges her to reach kids locked inside themselves. When Patrick charms her and jumps with her back to his home, she's confused and angry. But when she meets his son, she longs to bring the little boy back to his family. She can't deny her attraction to the boy's father, either. He wants her too, but he's certain his sins put her out of reach. 

Can Tara show Patrick that he's more than his past mistakes? 

Or will he let his shame destroy any future they might have?

[Watty's Shortlist & WATTPAD PICKS -- Up and Coming List 06.07.2018] Now Available on Amazon!!! His hands moved down to cradle her neck. "I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home. On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island. They even have a name for their kind: Shardless. Taly is one of the lucky humans. Taken in by a fey noble and his family, she's lived a good life, surrounded by people she loves. But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.
