The Kelpie and the Key
(2026)(The third book in the Love & Ley Lines: Lifeboat series)
A novel by Vinni George
When kelpie shifter Mal Dunn left Baleen to restore the old stone inn in Lifeboat, Maine, he expected a quiet town and calm waters, but instead he’s greeted by ghosts, curses, and a human who sees straight through him.
Rowan Vale has spent his life helping restless spirits move on. His psychic sight has always been more a burden than a gift until it leads him to Lifeboat and a series of spectral warnings that point directly to the ocean…and to Mal.
Drawn together by an old iron key that hums with magic, Mal and Rowan uncover a hidden chamber beneath the cliffs, under the inn, where the heart of Lifeboat’s ley line magic lives. Someone is tampering with it, trying to fracture the magic that protects their town.
Together they have to uncover who is manipulating the ley lines, release a host of trapped souls, and seal the magic of the town all while navigating the heat of their growing desire. As tides rise and danger threatens, Mal and Rowan have to use their connection to anchor the ley line, but will their love be enough to seal the magic and save the town once and for all?
