Kate Learns to Swim is a fairytale. Although there are the usual fairies, witches, evildoers, and
magic, it is set in today's world.
After going through a divorce, Kate experiences the injustices of becoming single again. Our
heroine, Kate, has a compulsion to visit the woods of her childhood with the tiny pool of water.
She discovers other ladies have felt the same pull. Under the power of magic, she learns to
swim in the arms of a man who lives in the water. When it's time to leave, she finds herself on
the property of a local handsome doctor who vows to help her figure out the mysterious spell
she has lived through.
The magic of the spell continues as she meets and lives with real fairies. She is kidnapped by
an evil fairy and encounters a unicorn whose duty it is to rescue maidens in distress. Even
though she's not a maiden, he decides to stay with her until one comes along.
Kate discovers Fairyland is under attack by an evil witch, and if something isn't done to help, the
fairies will no longer be around to help humankind keep nature healthy and in good stead.
Kate's life changes in this other world.
