6/28/2023 0 Comments Rebel Spirits by Lois RubyBut one day Anna returns to the island, exiled there by her family. But at seventeen, he had resigned himself to only seeing Anna in magazines. The only happiness he knew was when he played with the heiress Annabel Leighton as a child. Crippled from birth, he is shunned by the other inhabitants and haunted by the wails of Bean Sidhes. Liam has lived a hard life on the island of Dochas. I love Poe and I love retellings, so a retelling of Poe's poem Annabel Lee with Celtic mythology added in sounded like the recipe for a great book. I wanted to read Ashes on the Waves from the first time that I heard Mary Lindsey talk about it. Frustrated, the creatures put the couple through one last trial - and this time it’s not only their love that’s in danger of being destroyed.īased on Edgar Allan Poe’s chilling poem Annabel Lee, Mary Lindsey creates a frighteningly beautiful gothic novel that glorifies the power of true love. But the tragedies draw Liam and Anna even closer. They make a wager on the couple’s love, testing its strength through a series of cruel obstacles. With Anna, Liam finally finds the happiness he has always been denied but, the violent, mythical Otherworlders, who inhabit the island and the sea around it, have other plans. Haunted by the wails of fantastical Bean Sidhes and labeled a demon by the villagers of Dòchas, Liam has accepted that things will never get better for him-until a wealthy heiress named Annabel Leighton arrives on the island and Liam’s fate is changed forever. Goodreads Summary: Liam MacGregor is cursed.
