Two people, locked in a bitter battle, find their lives forever changed by the irresistible pull of an ancient legend Harriet Wheaton is out of options. Her manor house on Jovette Island is in foreclosure and, in a desperate attempt to save it, she invites Payton Dunsmore to view her home.

But when Payton arrives, it's not the house that captures his attention. He's undeniably drawn to stubborn, passionate Harriet, but still has no intention of saving the manor. Past the point of an amicable resolution, Harriet plays her last card, marooning them on the island and turning to the old Jovette legend that those who arrive as enemies will leave as lovers. But will the legend really work its magic and save her family legacy? And will Harriet be able to hold onto Payton's heart without knowing if his passion is part of a spell or the real magic of love?   This ebook features an extended biography of Mary Kay McComas.
