Product Description

He was born of the sea...

Selkie prince Conn ap Llyr denies his deeply sensual nature to rule over the immortal Children of the Sea. But when the Children of Fire threaten the Selkies' Sanctuary, Conn must obey his haunting visions-and seek a woman thousands of miles away...

She was born on land...

Schoolteacher Lucy Hunter knows nothing about her Selkie heritage or the prophecy that drives Conn to find her. She is content with her life on the quiet Maine island of World's End. That is, until a proud, compelling stranger appears to challenge her assumptions and awaken her desires...

Their love will tear them between two worlds...

To combat Fire, Conn needs Lucy's magic-even if this means stealing her away to Sanctuary. As the demon threat grows, so does their passion, overcoming Lucy's fears and Conn's guarded heart. But soon they face a devastating choice. Will their love be enough to save them? Or will their destinies tear them apart?

4.0 out of 5 stars Sea Lord, May 17, 2009

By	Nichole "Nikki" (MONROE, LA USA) - See all my reviews

This is an interesting book. This is my first time reading about a selkie. The legends are interesting and the story line had a good plot. It had interesting turns and twists and it kept me on my toes. I enjoyed it even though the book seemed to be a little more erotica than romance at times. I like the way Lucy came into her power steadily growing and maturing her gift with Conn's love assistance until she was strong enough to stand her own ground.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra twolipsreviews.com, July 28, 2009

By	Tina (Maine) - See all my reviews

Lucy Hunter has been content playing in her garden and being a school teacher. A child of the land, happy thinking she is mortal. Now she discovers she is apart of an ancient battle between elementals. That she is not a child of land, or a mortal, but a descendent of the children of Sea and part Selkie.

Conn, the prince of the Selkie, has come for Lucy. She is the child of the prophecy, the one that will save them all. He will do whatever it takes to bring Lucy to sanctuary and protect her from the children of fire - even kidnapping. He feels more than just passing friendship for Lucy but has learned winning the battle is not laying your heart open to love. Can Lucy convince him that he is wrong before his attitude drives her away and the future of all the children of Sea forever?

Sea Lord is the third Children of the Sea novel by Virginia Kantra. I particularly loved this one and you do not have to read the others in the series to understand this novel - it is a true stand alone. Conn has a hardened tough exterior which reminds of the coolness of the ocean - seems cold to the touch but inside it is teaming with life. Lucy is very much the sunlight to Conn's coolness. She never realized her entire family has had superpowers that she came from a line of Children from the Sea. She has no clue about this Great War. She is completely taken by surprise by Conn. His sex appeal has her enamored, but his heart keeps her around as she sees the man within the Prince. When you want love, action, adventure and mystery you want to read Sea Lord!
