Tinker Tailor Soldier Sailor
Summary
Four original folktale-style stories based on the old English counting rhyme. The tinker is drawn to a mysterious pool. He half-remembers he once loved a princess. When she appears by the water, he learns they have 14 days to lift a curse or lose each other forever. The tailor has a 21st-century mindset and a 14th-century problem. Goblins have stolen his baby daughter and left a changeling. The goblin king sets three tasks to be completed by the next full moon. There’s a win-win solution if the tailor can find it. Two Vikings fleeing relentless pursuers, enter the strange garden of Mistress Gefn. They are set the task of rebuilding a wall. They wonder if they can leave. There are two exits. The sailor’s wife died in childbirth, and he is unable to love his daughter. The moor-folk steal uncared-for children. When his daughter disappears, he tracks her down to the Isle of the Sea Queen where he is presented with a life-or-death choice.

One Scottish Lass
Summary
Samhain. All Hallows Eve. The most mystical night of the year. The time when the veil between the worlds become perilously thin. And with a full moon overhead, this awesome power reaches its climactic height. Sorcha has no time for mystical nonsense - there are enough challenges in navigating the minefield of her mother's vicious temper and the most important event of her young life. For at long last, she has left Edinburgh to see the world. She and her mother are visiting the elegant city of Bath. Sorcha wears the finest dress she'd seen - and steps into a life she'd only dreamt of. But when Johnny's eyes meet hers, and jealous rivals vow revenge, that delicate layer between what is and what once was rips. It shreds like the fragile thread of one's life. One Scottish Lass is the first novella in the regency time travel romance trilogy. These stories are teen-friendly with no explicit language, violence, or intimacy.
