Mrs. Pruitt approaches Alex and his partner Brian, friends
and detectives, to find her true son who she swears was
switched five years ago at his birth. When she mentions
that he was born in Fairyville, Alex freaks out knowing he
has to return to face all of the people he feels he let
down, including Zoe, his first love and an important part
of his tragic past. During the drive to his hometown, Alex
is confident he can face anything thrown at him; he's just
unsure how his heart will react to seeing the woman he
fantasizes about.
Zoe Clare's gift is her unusual knack of talking to and
seeing dead people. She helps the residents of Fairyville
converse with their dearly departed, which since high
school has set her apart from others. She is at ease with
her gift and totally head-over-heels with her manager,
Magnus Monroe. Zoe is working on getting him to pay
attention to her when her old flame, Alex, bursts into town
and brings back uncontrollable feelings, along with
memories of a town scandal that no one has forgotten.
Though there was a point early in the book where I was
completely and utterly shocked, I did enjoy reading Emma
Holly's fantastic and extraordinary tale of a powerful
love with a unique twist of paranormal.
Zoe Clare is a medium who has no trouble communicating
with the dead-or with real live fairies, for that matter!
But she can't seem to get her feelings across to her
landlord-slash-manager- Magnus Monroe, Fairyville,
Arizona's most eligible bachelor. She's tired of his
erotic antics with every woman in town but her. So when
her high school flame returns to town, Zoe is more than a
little vulnerable to his charms. How Alex broke herheart
is a scandal no one in Fairyville has forgotten. But even
if Zoe isn't ready to forget, she's willing to forgive.
The rules they're about to break will bring out the
jealousy in Magnus-and the astounding truth.
