Washington D.C. & Boston, MA – Present Day

 

Ned Harper, an environmental scientist, is in town to testify before Congress on behalf of a logging company.  While the testimony he gives is based in fact – he still feels a bit like he’s batting for the wrong team.  To make him even more uncomfortable, since he arrived in D.C., he’s been having highly erotic dreams about a beautiful Indian maiden – hot, sweaty, steamy sex dreams – until the beautiful maiden turns into a heron at the moment of climax.

 

Gaia Jackson loves her job.  Gaia works for the Natural Resource Control Board and is dedicated to preserving the earth and all its creatures for future generations.  Because of her vivid dreaming of a past life, and the lover who takes her to untold heights of extasy, Gaia has a hard time in real life relationships.  If only her dream lover were real…

 

Today Gaia is participating in an environmental rally with her best friend.  Unfortunately, her best friend’s idea of promoting the environment is to dress Gaia up in a costume – a heron no less.

 

Ned is wandering through the park when he sees some sort of event going on.  He walks over, and promptly trips and crashes into someone – he lands flat on his back – with a heron sitting on his groin.  It is like his dream come true – without the sex.

 

After picking themselves up, Gaia and Ned exchange names, and from that moment the heat is on.  Ned and Gaia are instantly attracted, and when the first word out of Ned’s mouth is Gaia’s dream name, she knows she has to find out more about him.  The two agree to meet for dinner – and see where things lead.  Well, where they lead is to an erotic all night marathon of the best sex either has had outside of their dreams.  But when morning comes so does reality – and Gaia and Ned learn that they may be just too different to make anything work between them.

 

Will Gaia and Ned compromise? Will they walk away and never learn the meaning of their dreams?

 

In order to get the answer to those questions, as well as a dose or two of very hot sex, you’ll need to grab A SIEGE OF HERONS to find out.  Once again, author Sahara Kelly has created a unique story with charming characters who tug at your heartstrings.  The dialogue is crisp, the narrative flows well and the interaction between Ned and Gaia is intense, emotional, and hot.  In addition to a fabulous romance between Ned and Gaia, readers are treated to the tragic but utterly romantic tale of a brave Indian warrior and the maiden he loves more than life itself.

 

And entertaining and satisfying story, I recommend A SIEGE OR HERONS, as well as the preceding books in the loosely linked series, AN UNKINDNESS OF RAVENS and A WATCH OF NIGHTINGALES.
