Book Tour: The Lure of Shapinsay by Krista Holle



Hi everyone! Today in Coffee, Books and Me, we have tour stop of The Lure of Shapinsay tour by author Krista Holle. We have both an EXCERPT and GIVEAWAY! Hope you enjoy!

Blurbs about the book:

Ever since Kait Swanney could remember, the old crones of the village have been warning her to stay away from the selkies. They claim that like sirens of old, the seal men creep from the inky waters, shed their skins, and entice women to their deaths beneath the North Sea. But avoiding an encounter becomes impossible when Kait is spotted at the water’s edge, moments after the murder of a half-selkie infant. 

Unexpectedly, Kait is awoken by a beautiful, naked selkie man seeking revenge. After she declares her innocence, the intruder darts into the night, but not before inadvertently bewitching her with an overpowering lure. 

Kait obsesses over a reunion deep beneath the bay and risks her own life to be reunited with her selkie. But when she lands the dangerous lover, the chaos that follows leaves Kait little time to wonder—is it love setting her on fire or has she simply been lured?


EXCERPT!!!!

A hand slid over my mouth and stifled my scream before I was even fully awake.  When my eyes sprung open, I was ready to be filled with the image of a most ghastly villain, but instead it was forewarned magick that filled my eyes, and I was filled with awe.  A man in the lightest sense of the word, loomed over me with eyes so wide and feral, I thought he might howl to the moon.  His words came out rough and breathy.  “If you make a sound, I’ll snap your scrawny neck.” 


eek! that was one intense scene! Find more of the story when you read the book! :)
