Lochbound; Rebecca Templeton | Hardcover Edition

There is no happily-ever-after . . .

Kilmara, Scotland. 1725. For fifty years, Iris has accepted the curse that blighted her
life. By night, she is a heartbroken woman, destined to walk the misty shores of
Kilmara without growing older. By day, she is Moireach, a terrifying monster imprisoned
in the murky depths of Loch Moine.

When bodies begin appearing on the shore, the villagers are convinced Moireach is
responsible. So a hunter - the rugged, ruthless Henry Carver - is summoned to slay the
monster of the loch.

Iris must break her curse before she is killed for crimes she cannot believe she has
committed. But as Kilmara's hunt for the monster becomes ever more fevered, she and
Henry are drawn together in a dangerous game of impossible attraction.
And when a figure from Iris's past suddenly reappears, she must choose what - or who
- she is willing to sacrifice to win her freedom.

. . . when you are the monster.

A glitteringly dark reimagining of The Little Mermaid set in eighteenth-century
Scotland, this enchanting and gothic historical fantasy is perfect for fans of
Rosie Andrews's The Leviathan, Georgia Leighton's Spellbound and anyone
who loved Outlander.
