When Morgan Patterson came to Northern Ireland for a college year abroad, she didn't expect to meet the man of her dreams, Tiernan Doherty. Except Tiernan wasn't a man at all. He was the hereditary lord of an ancient faerie kingdom, who had an enduring chain of duty to the wicked faerie queen, Em. Even more burdensome is Tiernan's debt to the morally ambiguous Connor Doyle--the man who has threatened everything Morgan loves and Tiernan wants. Now Morgan is married to Connor, not Tiernan. And Tiernan, he's doing something he said he never would. He's marrying the evil Em. Both marriages were meant to secure peace in the faerie kingdoms of the North but after Tiernan's marriage, something terrible occurs. It's a crime no one would have dared imagine and because of it, any hope of peace is threatened. In a surprising move, Morgan is tasked with solving the crime, but it soon becomes apparent much more is at stake than simply bringing the culprits to justice. Will Morgan learn what the true motive for the crime is before the longstanding truce between the faerie kingdoms and humans is shattered--or someone truly dear to Morgan must pay the cost for this attempt to overthrow the standing faerie monarchy?

Morgan Patterson came to Northern Ireland for her senior college year abroad to focus on her studies far away from family drama. But she's quickly distracted by a hunk of a police sergeant named Tiernan Doherty. Though he's old enough to be her da, as her new friends are quick to point out, she fancies him. And he certainly seems to be obsessed with her.Eagerly going against all good advice, Morgan becomes more and more bound to Tiernan-by ties of lust and love and protection, and maybe even duty. But there is more to their attraction than Morgan can explain with her science textbooks, and more is going on in this sleepy village than she could ever have imagined.She was once so sure that faerie stories were fiction. But there's no denying the strange visions and dreams she's been experiencing again since coming to this place. So many of the people she's met-both those looking out for her welfare and those seeking to destroy her-seem to feel she is a special one, with powers that are only now coming fully into her possession. Will she finally begin to understand that herself before it's too late?

Too much family drama at home. That's what Morgan Patterson was thinking when she left the States to finish her final year of college studying abroad in Northern Ireland. She quickly finds herself immersed in a hidden world of magic and danger with the man of her dreams at the center of it.Only he's not a man. Tiernan Doherty is an honest-to-goodness faerie lord with family drama of his own. There's a blood feud to be settled, not to mention a messy chain of duty that binds him to the queen of the dark fae, a woman he truly despises.None of that matters to Morgan, though. She realizes Tiernan's not just the man of her dreams, he's the man she's meant to protect. But what she does to protect him surprises everyone, threatening the longstanding peace between humans and faeries, and causing more than enough tears for them all."These Are for Tears," is the third book in the Will-o'-the-Wisp Stories, a serialized, epic urban fantasy that proves nothing is what it seems, promises are meant to be kept and words are binding things.

Strange circumstances brought Morgan Patterson from the sandy beaches of the US East Coast to rocky Northern Ireland. Some called those circumstances destiny. Morgan called it something else. For her, it was just a college senior year abroad. Until, that is, her studies were interrupted when she met the man of her dreams. A man who took her by the hand, leading her into a world where promises were binding things, where nothing was as it seemed, and where wishing for something could get you more than you bargained for -- including death. But it was also a world of enduring love, hidden treasures, and the chance to right the wrongs of long ago. What Morgan called it was her kingdom. A kingdom she was willing to die to protect.
