"an exciting paranormal romance"
Ian Olympus, whose family has ruled the mystic isle of
Aelynn for
centuries, must be the first Olympus to leave the isle in
centuries.
Because Ian can see possible future events, he knows that
his future is
entwined with a French woman, Chantal Deveau. Ian sees
that Chantal is
in some way tied to the chalice, which is missing from his
island.
Ever since the chalice has been missing, natural disasters
have become
more prevalent on the island. Ian must restore the chalice
to its
rightful home and hunt down a renegade exile, Murdoch, who
has been
causing trouble in the outside world. MYSTIC RIDER is an exciting, paranormal romance, which
takes place
during the French Revolution and contains lots of adventure
and danger.
Ian is a very powerful ruler, who is used to being in
control and having
his orders obeyed. Then, Ian meets lovely revolutionary,
Chantal, and
gets thrown for a loop. Chantal is a little too naive and
idealistic
for my tastes, but she helps Ian realize that change is
needed in his
kingdom and really shakes things up. All in all, MYSTIC RIDER is an enjoyable paranormal
romance, which
I recommend. I'm waiting impatiently for the next story,
hopefully
Murdoch's. Murdoch will make a yummy, redeemable hero.

A Mystic Isle Novel
Ian Olympus, skilled fighter and visionary, has left the isle of Aelynn for the Outside World to retrieve a sacred chalice. He finds it in the hands of Chantal Deveau, who plans to buy her family out of prison. But her outrage at his demand that she hand it over is nothing compared to her powerful, sensual response to his presence—and the startling conviction that their lives are irrevocably entwined. And Ian will soon have to choose between duty and desire.
