Michele Strickland is a witch who's destined to make a sacrifice for her coven. She refuses to develop any long term relationships knowing she will die for her coven some day.

Eric Granger is former Navy, now working as a contract carpenter on the Dark Wing cruise ship. Hoping to secure a permanent job for himself and his daughter. After his mother died, he lost his father to widow sickness and refuses to mate if it means his daughter would have to suffer like he did.

The magic of Dark Wing compels Michele to take a holiday cruise. Even though she knows she's a bear shifter's mate, she will avoid it at all costs. However when there's a snaffu with the cabin arrangements she finds herself sharing her cabin suite with Eric and his adorable daughter. They know they are mates but fighting it is hard when they start to fall in love.

Overall a predictable, sweet romance, with an adorable child, but some of the transitions are choppy.
Sweet, holiday romance with a touch of magic.
