She's spent years pushing him away.

He's spent years waiting.

And in Loren Brae, fate will not be denied.



Agnes Wright has always known two things — books are her first love and Graham Kincaid is her second. The one man who never stopped showing up, no matter how many times she shut the door.



Graham Kincaid has pulled pints, kept his head down, and watched the only woman he's ever loved pretend he doesn't exist. He's not a fool. He sees the way she looks at him when she thinks no one's watching. And he's done waiting for an explanation she refuses to give.



But the Kelpies are no longer circling. They're closing in. The loch is restless, the wards are failing, and every woman who answered the call of the Order has done her part. There's only one woman left who can save Loren Brae.



To break the ancient curse and banish the Kelpies once and for all, Agnes must unlock a power she's spent a lifetime burying. But saving her village means facing the one thing that terrifies her more than any ancient evil rising from the deep — losing Graham forever.



Some fates are written in the stars.

Theirs is written in the Stone of Truth.
