Blurb:<\/strong>
A fated encounter. A familiar stranger. A storm of passion. Can Ondine release her fear, surrender to Marut\u2019s power, and claim her own?

Marine biologist Ondine Ambrose has always felt at home in the sea. Orphaned at birth and raised by her grandmother on the island of Martha\u2019s Vineyard, she has never really questioned her extraordinary affinity for the watery world.

When she encounters an attractive but arrogant engineer on her private beach, surveying the site for a prospective off-shore wind farm, anger is her first reaction. A casual touch, however, transforms that emotion to incomprehensible, irresistible, terrifying lust.

Ebony-skinned Marut has his own talents\u2014aside from his uncanny ability to swamp Ondine with desire. He can control the winds and summon storms. When he insists that they are both more than human, and that she is his destined mate, Ondine responds with skepticism. She tries to resist the charismatic Haitian, but ultimately she cannot deny the evidence of her senses\u2014and her heart.

Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWind is far less destructive than fossil fuels. You know that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stranger cupped his tea mug in his big hands. Marut, he called himself. His handsome face wore an earnest expression, while his body was wrapped in her old terrycloth robe, the one she planned to donate to Goodwill. Meanwhile, Ondine herself wore a loose T-shirt and sweatpants that effectively hid her curves. No sense tempting fate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She hadn\u2019t intended to bring him here, but his clothing was soaked and, like her, he had bloody abrasions on his hands and knees from their fierce encounter on the rocks. So she\u2019d led him over the dunes\u2014careful not to touch him\u2014to the weathered clapboard house she\u2019d inherited from her grandmother. After giving him antiseptic and Band Aids, she\u2019d left him alone in the downstairs bathroom to clean himself up and tend to his wounds. She certainly didn\u2019t intend to play nurse to him, that was certain. She had no idea what had possessed her out on the beach, but she didn\u2019t want to experience it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not that it hadn\u2019t felt wondrous. Indeed, every time she looked at him, she recalled the overwhelming hunger that had seized her. The memory of their frantic encounter unnerved her. The pleasure had been incredible. The loss of control, though, had been terrifying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ondine was no virgin, but she\u2019d always been careful about sex. She was normally the one who chose the time and place. And after her mother\u2019s tragic experience, she was unfailingly vigilant about contraception, all the more so because her body would tolerate neither the pill nor an IUD. As she showered off the grit, sweat and semen, she felt grateful that her interactions with Marut had not involved penetration. She didn\u2019t normally carry condoms on a walk to the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was a stranger, possibly even an enemy. There was something unnatural about the intimacy they\u2019d shared, so sudden and so potent. She would need to remain on her guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rousing herself from her musings, she sipped her own tea and nibbled at one of her ginger snaps. \u201cOf course. Oil, gas, coal\u2014they\u2019re bad news. But why not build your wind farm on dry land? You\u2019d have a much smaller ecological impact.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNobody wants a ninety meter steel tower in their backyard.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo you put it where there\u2019s no one to object!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn many cases the winds are stronger and more reliable offshore too.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnd that justifies the cost to wildlife?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGlobal warming\u2019s a bigger threat to ocean life than any wind farm.\u201d Marut\u2019s abruptness suggested annoyance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smug satisfaction warmed her, though she recognized that reaction as childish. As a scientist, she was well aware that the tradeoffs and issues were complex. There was no simple answer to the problems facing humanity. Somehow, though, she couldn\u2019t stop herself from baiting him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s a research question, I think.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLook.\u201d He flashed a conciliatory smile that lit up his strong, even features. \u201cLet\u2019s call a truce. My company is in the preliminary stages of design, just studying feasibility and cost-effectiveness for different locations. The installation might turn out to be totally impractical.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
