Sometimes the world is actually ending…
Dawson Hill is used to the routine and isolation of working on an oil platform in the North Sea. He’s woken up by what he thinks is an emergency drill, then the platform shudders and tilts like it’s about to fall into the sea…but the sea is gone. The oil platform is now on an island. And the island is inhabited by all kinds of beings. It soon becomes clear that rescue isn’t coming, and they are running out of food.

Magic is gone, and the water tastes different. Is different. King Ul doesn’t know what to tell his people when they look to him for answers about what happened or what the metal contraption is. The invaders must have answers, so when they leave the metal boxes, he has them arrested, which is how he discovers the marks on his skin glow in the presence of one man. His mate.

Even though Ul wants to get his tentacles on Dawson, he doesn’t have time for love while his kingdom is in trouble.
