"A wonderful selkie romance!"

Sailor David Fraser waits for death to take him. The lone survivor of a shipwreck, he's been adrift on the ocean for days in the lifeboat. With no food and little water, he knows it's only a matter of time. When a gale comes up, David knows that this is it. But he wakens next to a lovely lass who has warmed him with her body heat.

Gilly saves the handsome sailor as her people are wont to do. Although she knows that he will break her heart, she cannot fight the growing attraction between them. But she knows that they can never have a future together. Men rarely stay after learning the truth of her people.

Can David overcome Gilly's natural fears? Will David sacrifice himself to save Gilly? Is it even possible for them to have more than this brief interlude?
