Scotland's magic has been trapped ever since the Battle of Culloden when a powerful witch bound it to keep the power from the British. It's gotten worse over the centuries, and now a stranded fae prince-turned-professor has one chance to bring the Highlands back to life. 'The Fae's Gamble' is the first book in the Office of Highland Magic series, featuring a department of academics keeping track of Scotland's magical peoples and relics. Fern McEwan has witch blood in her veins. She doesn't know that and only cares about finishing her thesis. Out of options, she has to accept a mysterious fellowship offer from an unknown Office of Highland Magic. When she realizes the invitation centers on her breaking a centuries-old curse, she'll need convincing to finish the term, no matter how cute the department head is. Dr. Calum Welsh used to go by 'Your Highness' and not 'Professor.' When he found himself on the wrong side of a magical barrier after the Battle of Culloden, he was forced to trade his sword for spectacles and spent years researching ways to get back. He might have found his last option, but it's a gamble, and a crush on Ms. McEwan isn't part of the lesson plan. After a hundred years, the curse threatens to rip the Highlands apart and banish its magical residents forever. Both Fern and Calum will have to put aside their differences and their growing attraction to try and release Scotland's magic before it's too late. Please note 'The Fae's Gamble' is an adult paranormal romance with sex scenes, graphic violence, and swearing.
