Stealing Ula: A Fada Shapeshifter Prequel (Book 0.5 The Fada Shapeshifter Series)

Ula Gallagan is a dutiful daughter. The beautiful fada Seer with an unreliable and often questionable gift dreams of doing extraordinary things and seeing far-off places. As the only daughter of the Shannon clan's Alpha, her duty is to honor her clan and marry someone worthy of her station. When a visitor with a hard face and a honeyed tongue piques her interest, she knows nothing good can come of it. In spite of the immediate attraction between them, Nisio do Rio is a Douro fada, an assassin and the third son of an Alpha. Definitely not a suitable mate. But when Ula has a vision of Nisio inadvertently causing the death of the Sun fae queen, she feels compelled to stop it from coming true. With a powerful foe at their backs, can the two of them put their talents to work before it's too late?

A prequel to 'The Fada Shapeshifter Series', "Stealing Ula" ascends to great heights, propelling the reader ever upwards. Ms. Rivard has written a steamy, spellbinding romance with phenomenal pacing and distinctive dialogue. Readers will quickly become enamored with the trajectory of this story. The author's world building and shapeshifter lore are second to none! The descriptions of the fada, the fae and the surrounding world are stunning. Ula is such a likeable, relatable character one can't help but empathize with her. Meanwhile, Nisio's protective alpha male machismo (along with the endearing smattering of Portuguese that he speaks) makes him irresistible. All in all this is an unforgettable tale not to be missed!
