Elizabeth LapthorneFantasy romance
Available from Triskelion Publishing

| Llewellyn is the King of the Fey. The witch Glada has
taken away his powers by throwing the Opal locket of
the title into a fire. The locket is necessary
because the woman who can open it and use it's powers
becomes his wife and Queen of the Fey. Naturally,
King Llewellyn is a little concerned about who his
future wife will be. Katie is a full figured, newly
unemployed woman on reinventing herself on an island
off the coast of Australia. Katie finds the locket on
the beach and can feel its power. Suddenly, the most
handsome man she has ever seen appears on the beach.
Llewellyn asks for his locket back, but it doesn't
seem to want to go. Apparently, the locket has chosen
her, but she isn't quite sure if she wants to be
chosen.
The word I would use to describe this story is fun. It is a short, fast moving, and well written fairytale with great characters, a great plot, snappy dialog, and hot love scenes. Great story.
