In this contemporary, polyamorous fantasy story – a romance, with Icelandic folklore and magical flora thrown into the mix – Ethan Shaw is a lighthouse keeper, who is also a witch who saves the life of a sea captain, Peter Vásquez.

Several years later, Peter brings home a wounded seal after a storm, and Ethan, who is struggling with his own insecurities and the idea that he might be infertile, finds himself taking care of a lost selkie named Nico Locke, with whom the couple forms an intimate, magical bond.

Heart, Haunt, Havoc (The Gideon Testaments, #1) by Freydís Moon

These characters were real, heartbreaking, funny, vulnerable, all the right things that made me love them. I can't wait for book 2 to see what comes next!

Three Kings by Freydis Moon

I’m surprised it took me so long to read this novella, but it did need to be slowly savored for all its depth. The world created was amazing and fell into a strange liminal space of modern times blended with magical lore, and I was here for all of it. It was gorgeous to see how Ethan, Peter, and Nico built a relationship together; the end note was beautiful, and it would be lovely to see how it continued to grow.
