Maggie Donovan, human window painter, defeated Queen Mab, Queen of the Fae, and so became Maggie, Queen of the Fae. She is trying to adjust to her life as a Queen and be true to her human life and family as well. She is wildly attracted to her head Fae Warrior, Culhane, but remembers that Mab said not to trust him as she was being thrown out the window. Culhane, on the other hand, has been watching Maggie since she was a small child and has been waiting on her to grow and assume her destiny to become Queen, so he could direct her rule to correct things he saw wrong with the Otherworld where the Fae live. Maggie's niece Eileen accidentally frees Mab from her imprisonment, and now Maggie has to deal with her trust issues with Culhane, decide on where she should live in the human world or Otherworld, and defeat Mab a second time to protect her family and the Fae she has come to care for.
This book was witty, fun and fast paced. Maggie is torn between being a normal human, and Queen of the fae, and the author made her very believable. The book left off with a surprise ending, and now I have to get the next book, to see what happens next!
