But the tragedies draw Liam and Anna even closer. They make awager on the couple’s love, testing its strength through a series of cruel obstacles. With Anna, Liam finally finds the happiness he has always been denied but, the violent, mythical Otherworlders, who inhabit the island and the sea around it, have other plans. Haunted by the wails of fantastical Bean Sidhes and labeled a demon by the villagers of Dòchas, Liam has accepted that things will never get better for him-until a wealthy heiress named Annabel Leighton arrives on the island and Liam’s fate is changed forever. ![]()
