Blurb: Toby’s happy with his life in the small fishing village of Haggenby. At least, he thought he was. When he rescues a Selkie who identifies himself as Flirt in sign language–not so much a name as a warning label, as Toby’s father notes–he’s forced to recognize he’s withdrawn from the world, and the world thinks it’s because he lost his hearing in his teens.
Stung, Toby takes Flirt out on a date, but that attracts the wrong kind of attention from the wrong kind of people: scientists keen to dissect Flirt and prove the existence of the supernatural. Flirt is kidnapped and Toby must attempt a daring rescue if he wants to keep his lover. He just hopes his lover wants to be kept.

Review: I am not really sure about this story. It just comes off as pretty bizarre. I did like it though. It was a bit cute just too short. I did love the way the characters were created. They are so loveable, tender, and sweet. They had the abilities to overcome all obstacles and turn them into rewards.
Toby is a bit of a recluse. Staying by himself as much as possible except when he is with his father. Out fishing, he came across a human, who wasn’t a human at all. He was a Selkie. They can be kept on land if you hide their Selkie skins from them and they are drawn to those who need something. When Toby helps Flirt, he realizes he likes him. More than likes him, he is falling for Flirt. Flirt is falling for Toby also. There is a danger that has been hunting Flirt, and now the danger is there. Scientist that want to cut Flirt open and study him. Toby will do anything to keep his man safe. They both will do anything to keep the other safe, but Toby doesn’t want to lose Flirt.
It does have a very cute storyline that you will like. I love the way that there is a different type of Shapeshifter in this story then the ones you normally hear about. I like the new world created by Mina. She has a gift for storytelling and I wish to read more of her books. This is book two in this series and you should really read book one to get a hang of the characters. To understand the world they live in and where they come from.
