The goblins are bent on discovering a way to turn the faerie magic of the Crystal DOr to ill.

There were many times when it seemed like happiness would never come and that makes today all the more precious. Kelsey is happy, healthy, and her life is headed in an amazing direction. Stella couldn't be more pleased with how things have worked out for her beloved daughter. With all the struggles of starting her life over, making sure her daughter was settled has been a huge concern through it all. Graham is a part of her life - if only on the fringes. England is a long way from Sunrise Beach and phone calls don't make up for seeing each other in person. Stella can't bring herself to push him away, though. There's something there even if it may never work out to be more than a long distance friendship. In spite of all the good in her life, the past still nags at Stella. Her ex shows up from time to time and every time she sees him all the terrible things he did rush back and make her feel almost as lost as she did when she found out what he'd done. She knows he deserves a chance to rebuild the relationship with his daughter, but he doesn't deserve a chance with her. When her ex springs new information on her, everything she's worked so hard for is threatened. Protecting her daughter and herself may turn out to be one of the hardest things she's ever done. The most painful part of it all is that her relationship with Graham - who had become her rock - might have to be sacrificed.
