Janet MacLeod has spent the last ten years dedicated to her clan, acting as the Lady of the castle--at the cost of her own happiness. Xander, a former Fae Warrior, sacrificed his wings and magic to live in the Human Realm and became a traitor to his people. When he finds Janet forlorn on the beach, Xander gives her a ring he's had since childhood, not realizing it'll reveal her as his fated mate.
