Number one New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts
has enchanted millions of readers with her moving, intimate
tales of friendships made and hearts lost, of legends,
lovers and longing. Now, in the second book in her
bewitching Three Sisters Island trilogy, she returns to the
haunting shores of New England-and to the lives of three
passionate, powerful women....
Ripley Todd just wants to live a quiet, peaceful kind of
life. Her job as a sheriff's deputy keeps her busy and
happy, and she has no trouble finding men when she wants
them-which, lately, isn't all that often. She's perfectly
content, except for one thing: she has special powers that
both frighten and confuse her-and though she tries hard to
hide them, she can't get them under control....
Distraction soon arrives in the handsome form of

Right from the start, he knows there's something
extraordinary about Ripley Todd. It's not just her blazing
green eyes and her sultry smile. There's something else.
Something he can detect, but she'll never admit. Fascinated
by her struggle with her amazing abilities, he becomes
determined to help her accept who she is-and find the
courage to open her heart.
But before Ripley and Mac can dream of what lies in the
future, they must confront the pain of the past. For Three
Sisters shelters centuries of secrets-and a legacy of
danger that plagues them still....
