Books 1 & 2 I have combined into Moonlit Night Years after fleeing her hometown in the dead of night, author Abbi Petersen was happy that she settled along the shores of the lakeside village. With the scenic backdrop, her own private beach in her backyard, and nothing around but an abandoned house, it was the perfect place to become a recluse and write her days away. That is until a gorgeous, younger, mysterious man moves next door. The only thing British actor Ben Quinn is interested in after hightailing it out of Tinseltown is living a quiet, low-key life, far away from the paparazzi's lenses. He finds the house on Pearl Lake's shore, spot-on, especially after he meets Abbi, the attractive woman next door. She has no clue he's Hollywood's most sought-after leading man. Charmed by her quirkiness, Ben wants more than a neighbourly relationship with her, but there is someone lurking around who has other plans. Will he be able to prove to Abbi that age is only a number before the person in the shadows can convince her otherwise? Hey lovely people! This is Ben. I wanted to let you know that Aquila Thorne, the teller of mine and Abbi's story had so much fun writing our tale, that she couldn't stop at just one book… it took her three. I wanted to forewarn you that books 1 and 2 of Pearl Lake the series, did end in cliffhangers and so she COMBINED the two. How awesome is that? But don't worry, this one does end in a HEA, also It gives you hours of reading pleasure and saves you money. Now I must hand over the mic to Abbi as she wants to talk to you. I'll see YOU inside the pages of this book. ;) Hi guys! I wanted to send a short note and give a little back story as to why there were cliffhangers because I know Ben didn't. As he and I were telling Aquila our story, little did we know that she had roughly 50 people reading chapter by chapter as she wrote. Those readers were hooked and wanted to know more about us, so it's kinda their fault. You see, she had no intention of ever publishing any books, it was more of a lifelong dream to just write one. It was those readers that pushed her into the Indie Author world. Also, I wanted to mention there is a stalker. It is nothing too serious and nothing that Ben can't handle, or I for that matter. Don't worry though, it's a laugh-out-loud, loveable read, with a lot of twists and turns that I hope you enjoy! xoxo Abbi

An alternative cover edition for this ASIN can be found here. She just wants answers to a mystery. He thinks she’s the key to ending his exile in her world. Love was never supposed to enter the equation… It’s in her friend’s rare books shop that Briana Wright first sees Taron Hildebrand, a too-gorgeous-to-be-real twenty-something Englishman dressed for a night at the opera rather than an obscure shop in midtown. Already unnerved by his uncanny, orange-tinted eyes, her alarm skyrockets with Taron’s powerful reaction to seeing the old hand-bound book she is carrying that nearly has her racing to the exit. A find in her recently deceased grandmother’s collection, it was written in a strange alphabet that Briana is dying to decipher. No way is she going to sell it, even when Taron offers her an obscene amount of money. However, when Taron confesses that he thinks the book may be an old family heirloom he’s been trying to locate for years and professes to be able to read it, Briana never imagines losing her life could be the cost of learning its secrets. An enemy is hunting Taron for the precious item he carries, and to secure her help, Taron will have to come clean about his dragon shifter identity, his true reason for wanting her book, and his suspicions of Briana’s own heritage if he has any hope of finding his way home again in a time when his people need the item he is protecting the most. Their hearts were never supposed to be part of their deal…

But Rags could never have guessed this "relic" would actually be a fae himself—a distractingly handsome, annoyingly perfect, ancient fae prince called Shining Talon.
