Once in a Blue Moon

By Mica Rossi

Irish spitfire Caighleen Mulrunnen is no stranger to ghosts, ghoulies and things that go bump in the night. Her job exposing paranormal scams makes sure of that. When she chances across Finn McHail under a moon-soaked sky, his touch sends fire racing along her nerves and has her daydreaming about his ice-blue eyes. Until, that is, she finds his picture on an internet dating site, his ears as pointed as a one of Santa's elves. Despite the magic that sings between them, Caighleen sets out to prove he's a fraud. But love has a way of making a believer out of anyone. In the end, Caighleen must choose. Will she keep her heart closed, or will she succumb to the magic of Finn's love?

Mica Rossi

Mica Rossi was born in New York. Her first story was a stapled-together book entitled "The Snow Day," 'published' in her 2nd grade classroom and illustrated entirely in blue crayon. Since then, she has written three novels and countless short stories, most of which have not been published. "It's good practice," she says when asked about what she's written so far. "These will probably never be seen by the public, but each one taught me a little more about my craft." An avid reader, Mica never read a romance novel until she worked the graveyard shift as a maternity ward nursing assistant, when she picked up a copy of "Sweet, Savage Love" by Rosemary Rogers and was hooked. Eventually, she discovered paranormal love stories. In the paranormal world, she found her home. "I love the juxtaposition of urban settings against elements of magick or supernatural creatures, those pockets of our universe where the laws of physics can be ignored, or at least trifled with." Mica hopes someday to make writing her full-time career. "The Sweet Life," a novella included in "sex, lies and scandal in Two Rivers," (2013 by Two Rivers Romance Authors) is her first published work. Although not a paranormal romance, it is definitely romantic. Her short story, "The Wish Your Heart Makes", included in the anthology "Eight 'til Christmas," (December 2013), is set in true fairy tale fashion in a non-existent castle on a non-existent island in the middle of the Niagara River. With her first full-length novel, "Once in a Blue Moon," (May 2014 by Satin Romance, an imprint of Melange Books, LLC) Mica has come full circle back to the genre she loves the most. "I'm comfortable writing here," she says. "I just may stay a while." Website: http://www.micarossi.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mica.rossi.author
