    I grew up in a home of the privileged, but as the daughter of the help. When I became of age, I worked along side my mother to earn my keep. My cynicism for the world in which I live, is with merit. I’ve experienced first hand how the circle of wealth monopolizes opportunities that are just beyond reach for everyone else. We're merely hamsters in a turning wheel with an illusion of freedom and equality. I no longer dream of being more. I have accepted what is. My mother is now dead. My father died before I was born. I don't need to exist outside the walls of my reality. I AM THE HELP!My name is Silas Lair and I'm a sex extraordinaire! Sex is my business and my gift. Every facet of sex that you can conceive, is a realm of my empire. My yacht, The Playboy's Lair, is just one of my many entities and is currently my primary domain. I'm very protective of my domain and who I let infiltrate my space. When I'm asked to hire a new housekeeper as a favor to my most trusted house manager, I oblige. The moment Brennan crosses the threshold of my yacht, my guard erects ten fold. Her jaded attitude and introvert mannerisms can only keep her safe from me for so long. She is an enigma, one that I have every intention of getting beneath me. She walked right into my world of sex - my lair! There is no room for innocence here. I will fuck my curiosity of her out of my system and carry on with my legacy!Fuck or be fucked. The only two options I live by. I choose the former.

    In this collection, stories from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Isle of Man, Cornwall, and Brittany show their common Celtic heritage in their love of extravagance and poetry, their quick wit, and their daring sense of adventure.Here, retold much as they were around Celtic peat fires a hundred years ago, are the enthralling tales of "Fair, Brown, and Trembling," "The Brown Bear of the Green Glen," and "The Ship that Went to America." Some of the stories give familiar tales a Celtic twist: "Duffy and the Devil" is a comic Cornish take on the Rumpelstiltskin story; "The Black Cat" is a dark and mysterious Breton "Cinderella." Others seem new and strange: the doomed love of "Lutey and the Mermaid," or the mystic rapture of "The Little Bird."Perhaps most riveting of all is the Irish tale of "The Soul Cages," in which a fisherman makes friends with one of the sea-people, Coomara, and uses that friendship to fee the souls of drowned sailors, kept by Coomara in lobster pots in is house beneath the waves.Illustrated in watercolor and gold leaf by acclaimed artist Isabelle Brent, these tales are full of Celtic magic.
