Klappentext

Asiri has a gift - she has the ability to speak to animals. However, when she begins to feel that her talents are being abused in her home, she escapes to a delightful coastal village where she plans to hide her gift and finally live a "normal" life. This proves difficult as her path keeps crossing with Dario, the village's charming and handsome animal healer - and the person most likely to guess her secret. Through a twist of fate, Asiri and Dario stumble across an injured Amaru, a creature who had, up until then, been thought only to be myth. Now, Asiri has a mission. Convince Dario to help the creature. Protect it from the superstitious town people. Keep her gift a secret. And absolutely, most definitely, NOT fall in love while doing so.
