Book blurb:
Welcome to Cat’s Paw Cove, Florida—an enchanting seaside town and favorite tourist destination. But there’s something unusual about the locals, both human and feline. The popular Shipwreck Museum might just take you back in time, and the historic Sherwood House holds secrets, old and new.
Adopt a furever friend at the Cove Cat Café, treat yourself to a psychic reading at Eye of Newt metaphysical shop, pick up a special trinket from Black Cat Antiquities. And don’t be surprised if you find your heart in the magic of Cat’s Paw Cove.
In a violent storm in 1645, Colin Wilshire’s Barbados-bound ship is swept off course. He’s sure he and his pregnant bride are fated to drown when he’s tossed into the sea. He wakes in a strange land and is saved by a blue-haired angel.
Twenty-first-century witch and cat rescuer Luna Halpern has fallen for more than her share of unsuitable guys—including one with a long-distance fiancé, and another who was more interested in other dudes than in Luna. Finally, a safe, drama-free guy is interested in her, and she’s confident that she’ll muster up an attraction to him. When she stumbles upon a handsome, mysterious man who speaks oddly, seems not to know where he is, or even what century it is, her first instinct is to help him.
Certain he’s either stuck in a crazy dream or in limbo between life and death, Colin stays close to Luna. As his feelings for her grow, he’s forced to choose between his obligations in the past and his hopes for the future.
Excerpt:
Colin’s strides slowed as he took in the interior of the medic tent: a chair that was covered in thin, white parchment and looked like it could be adjusted to form a bed; a table with gauze and some odd-looking instruments that reminded him of torture devices.
A woman a little shorter than Luna turned, saw Luna, and they started talking.
Shock and unease gripped him. The woman’s corseted blouse revealed an astonishing amount of cleavage, and her dress….
He blinked. Shook his head.
Luna returned to him. “You okay?”
A muscle ticked in his jaw. He drew Luna to one side so the other woman wouldn’t hear. “What is the meaning of this?” he hissed.
Luna frowned. “I don’t—”
“You bring me to a…a….”
Her brows rose. “A?”
“A pirate wench?”
“Um….”
“A strumpet?”
Luna made a strangled snorting noise. Obviously trying not to laugh, she pressed her hand over her mouth.
“This isn’t funny,” he bit out.
“Oh, yeah, it is.”
“I am most certainly not in the mood to….” Colin waved his hand, lost for words. He’d never imagined discussing fornication with a woman he barely knew.
Luna snorted again. “Why do guys think about sex all the time?”
“Not true.” He didn’t think about it when he was asleep. He hadn’t once thought about it during the tempest. But, that raised another question. “Do your people believe coupling has healing powers? That it can mend wounds?”
Luna squeezed the bridge of her nose and groaned. “Just be quiet for a moment, okay?”
He scowled. He didn’t want to be quiet. He wanted to get his injury tended and find Evelyn. But, he couldn’t do those things without Luna’s help, so he nodded.
“First of all, she’s not a pirate wench or a strumpet. She’s an RN.”
“RN?”
“A registered nurse.”
He grunted. “Registered in torture?”
“What? No!”
“What, exactly, does she nurse?”
Luna appeared to be struggling for patience. “She’s here to treat people who get injured during the Founders’ Day festivities. She told me she just finished treating a man who’d sprained his ankle during the Pirate Pub Crawl.”
Pirate Pub Crawl? How many damned pirates were there in this area?
