"Refreshing fantasy romance"
In 1863 Rebecca Lynn Mallory sees the ship sailing away
from her and thinks that she is going to drown here in the
Irish Sea without ever seeing her beloved again. She prays
for a miracle not expecting one even as she wonders how
that sudden wave washed her off the deck. Thoughts that
her unborn child would die too angers Rebecca as she begins
to sink into the sea when suddenly The Radiant One saves
her life. Poseidon informs his son Nikodemus and Rebecca
that due to his son's interference, in another time and
place her descendent must marry Nikodemus. A hundred years later, Rebecca's descendent Chelsea Porter
recovers from a disastrous relationship, vowing to put men
on hold. However, her pledge is quickly shredded when
Chelsea meets artist Nicolas Demitry. Nicolas knows he has
waited forever or since he saved Rebecca for a chance at
love, but will his beloved survive the test of his realm? POSEIDON'S KISS is an exciting refreshing fantasy romance
that is at its best when Gail Crease introduces readers to
Poseidon's under the sea world. The story line succeeds
because the fantasy realm seems authentic as if the author
had been there outside her dreams and the lead couple feels
darlingly real. Fantasy purists as well as those who
delight in a romantic undercoating will relish Ms. Crease's
creative novel and demand more trips to the undersea realm. Harriet Klausner

promise was made to the great god of the sea...

drowning. In fact, Chelsea has always loved the sea and has
never been afraid of it. But lately she can't help but feel
a strange sense of unease near the water. She tries to
ignore these feelings--tucking them neatly away like her
great-great-grandmother's diaries in the attic.
Then she meets Nicolas Demitry. Gorgeous, talented,
mysterious Nicolas. His remarkable paintings of the sea are
as intriguing as the artist himself. In his eyes, Chelsea
senses her destiny. In his arms, she feels her fears slip
away. But something about Nicolas seems haunted--haunted by
a promise made long-ago...and by the love he feels for a
mortal woman.
