As a child, Mairi made a deal with a young fae - a kiss in exchange for gills. Now, betrothed to a man she hardly knows, Mairi is desperate to escape her fate. When she finds that same fae at the river's edge, she's offered a proposal that makes her skin grow cold . . . and her blood run hot. Romance meets horror in this lesbian fairytale. Do you dare dive . . . Beneath the Loch?
Severity reflects intensity, not value — “central theme” means a warning is a core part of the book, not that the book is bad.
