Eldred Henstare is a not so powerful witch who’s been left in charge of helping the city’s lingering spirits to move on. He usually handles it pretty well, but something’s wrong with the spirit leading him to the abandoned lighthouse.<br><br>Mo Vin likes his quiet life in the cottage next to the lighthouse, at least it’s quiet until one night when Eldred Henstare -- young, beautiful, and crazy -- arrives. After that night things aren’t the same. A man is found dead on the beach outside Mo’s cottage, and he’s almost sure he’s the one who killed him, except it doesn’t make sense. Why would he kill anyone?<br><br>Eldred needs to get rid of the ghost haunting Mo. If he doesn’t Mo’s life is in danger, but to do it he needs both Mo and his brother Lachtin to help out.

Worth His Salt

Mo bent down and touched his lips to Eldred’s. A soft peck, just enough to feel the warmth, the touch of skin. Anything more would be wrong. He was far too young, not to mention crazy.


“There, now get in the car.” Mo tried to take a step back, but Eldred grabbed his sweater.


“That wasn’t a kiss, that was a ‘get out of my house’. Now, do it right. I know you can do it.” He stopped the charade and looked at Mo for a blink of a second. “You can do it, can’t you? I mean you’re into guys, aren’t you?” The horror taking over his face almost made Mo laugh.


“Yes, I’m into guys. Normal guys...my age.” Shit, why was his hand lingering at the small of Eldred’s back? He quickly removed it and stepped back to increase the distance between them.


“Your age? What’s that supposed to mean?”


“It means you’re too young for me.” And a bit too much of a lunatic.


“But you’re not too old for me. You are, in fact, just right.”
