This
short book starts by introducing you to a young woman named Jasmine
who's fascinated by the grotesque gargoyles of Invercreutch Castle in
Scotland. When day changes over to night, she learns that there’s more
to their history than meets the eye…
Jasmine has always been drawn to medieval castles.
She’s excited to come upon Scotland’s fabled Invercreutch Castle, hidden
deep in Argyll Forest, during a secret hike thru the woods. It's the
place she's been searching for... a castle that's pretty much a secret
as there are no photos of this castle and barely any written history.
There are three stone gargoyles atop the castle in the shapes of a dog,
a snake, and an eagle, as well as an empty base where one's missing.
All were made of different materials, yet had a strange lifelike
appearance. When darkness falls, the statues shift from their gargoyle
forms into their human shapes. Jasmine is terrified at first, but
quickly finds that passionate pleasure awaits her at Invercreutch &
that she has nothing to fear.
Through the long night that follows, Jasmine learns
that her arrival is no accident & her past is very much interwoven
with these gargoyles. Persuaded by the seductive embraces of the
gargoyles in human form, Jasmine begins to sense her true place in the
world. For the first time she doesn't feel alone and she remembers that
she is an integral part of the magical history of Invercreutch. At the
end of the story Jasmine has a choice to make—does her heart belong in
the bright daylight world of today or in the Argyll Forest?
This
short story had me captivated from the beginning. If you're
uncomfortable with sex scenes this book isn't for you, it's super
erotic, but if you enjoy hot steamy romance...give this book a try. I
loved the mystical characters & the old Scottish castle setting. And
the story-line kept me reading til the very end. I had to know the
whole story of the gargoyles & where Jasmine fit in & what was
pulling her to this mysterious place.
I rate this book 4 stars
