I am Meredith Gentry, P.I. and Princess Merry, heir to
the throne of Fairie. Now there are those among me
who whisper I am more. They fear me even as they protect me.
And who can blame them? I've awakened the
dazzling magic that's slumbered in them for thousands of
years. But the thing is, I can't figure out why.
My aunt, the Queen of Air and Darkness, is no longer
distracted by her usual sadistic hobbies. Her obsession
has turned unwaveringly to me. The mission to get me
pregnant and beat my cousin Prince Cel to the crown is
taking longer than expected. Even though I spend each night
with the Queen's Ravens, my immortal guards, no
child has come of our decadent pleasures. But something else
is happening. My magic courses through me
uncontrollably. And as I lock my half-mortal body with their
full-Sidhe blooded ones, the power surges like
never before.
It all began with the chalice. I dreamed of it, and it
appeared, cool and hard, beside me when I awoke.
My guards know the ancient relic wellÑits disappearance ages
ago stripped them of their vital powers.
But it is here with us now. My touch resonates with its
force, and they're consumed with it, their Sidhe
essences lit up by it. But even as they cherish me for this
unexpected gift, there are those who loathe
me for it. Me, a mongrel, only half fey and part mortal. The
Unseelie court has suffered for so long,
and there are some who would not have it weakened further by
an impure queen. My enemies grow in number
every day. But they do not know what I am capable of. Nor,
for that matter, do I. . . .
