I don't want to need you more than air, or light, or life, but I do. You own me now—body and what's left of my blackened soul—and I'll never let you go. -Dare to Lyric The Gift of the Magi...in Atlantis A tortured warrior... Warrior-turned-pirate Dare is the black sheep of all Atlantis. He enraged Poseidon, the sea god, so much that Dare had to forfeit his ship and the water spirit who inhabits it. For Dare, being denied the ocean is worse than death...until he comes home to a woman who drowns him in waves of hunger more powerful than the sea. But black sheep and scoundrels can never deserve love, even during the magic of the first Christmas in Atlantis. An artist who sees the world through song... After the accident that killed her parents and blinded her, Lyric discovered she had a special gift—that of song sight. She now sees the world in her own unique way, and her paintings are full of light and magic. When the Atlantean warrior she's fallen in love with takes her to his home in Atlantis, she finds a rare magical artifact that could change her world forever. Or it could deliver to Dare the thing he most desires. Atlantis's first Christmas is coming... It's the season of miracles in Atlantis. A chance to make wishes come true. And when Lyric tells her new Atlantean friends O Henry's story of The Gift of the Magi, the world—and Lyric and Dare—may never be the same.
