Stone of Faith by Margaret Izard

              The heart’s most extraordinary battle is the one fought for love.

About the Book:

A cursed pirate captain and an enslaved siren defy a power-hungry madman—and fate itself—to claim a love that spans centuries as they strive to save the human and Fae realms from which they come.

Haunted by a family legacy that threads magic through the ages, Captain Ewan MacDougall and his ghostly crew sail between worlds, freeing enslaved peoples. While a worthy goal, Ewan longs for what eludes him—true love. After he crosses paths with a legendary siren of the sea who is bound to a cruel, power-hungry madman, he knows he has found the woman who is destined to claim his heart.

Forced to use her voice to lure ships into the clutches of evil, the spark in Ewan MacDougall’s eye awakens hope in Lorelei’s soul—and the chance to protect her Fae family. Yet, the wicked monster who is holding her captive will stop at nothing to kill the human who touches and loves her as no one has done before.

Before they can claim a life together, Ewan and Lorelei must break the chains of dark magic and find the Stone of Faith before they become two more victims.

Our Review: Author Margaret Izard, a master at time travel romance as well as historical fiction, has done herself proud with this latest addition to the Stones of Iona series. Ewan is a true hero, brave and intrepid but with a whippy sense of humor. His honesty and courage draws loyalty in others like a magnet—and when he spies Lorelei for the first time, all bets are off. The setting, as always, is breathtaking as is the particular attention to details of the past as well as the present. Well done!

 Based on a scale of 1-5, Stone of Faith merits a 7.
