NOT YOUR ORDINARY FAERIE TALE

Fantasy Urban

Queen Mab believes her high-spirited (but less intelligent) nephew Seoc has taken a gate to the mortal realm and sends the captain of her guard, Luc, to find out what's going on. It seems that some of what is going on is that Seoc is being quite indiscreet, enough so that journalist Corinne D'Alessandro has been assigned to discover the origin of the recent "fairy sightings." Reluctantly taking the assignment, she goes to the Others she knows. There, she meets Luc.

Christine Warren's stories of the Others are always excellent. Long-term readers will enjoy NOT YOUR ORDINARY FAERIE TALE, but they will want to remember that Warren's works are not always released in chronological order. However, most fans are aware of this, and new readers won't notice. This is a fast- paced romp of a romance. The story is excellent and have you begging for more.

SUMMARY

After her two best friends marry a blood-sucking vampire and furry-faced werewolf, Corinne D’Alessandro is making a vow of her own: NO interspecies dating. But when her editor asks her to investigate “leprechaun” sightings, the sassy New York reporter finds herself on the trail of the hottest story of the year—and the sexiest man alive… His name is Luc, and he’s as gorgeous as any Prince Charming in any bedtime story. There’s just one problem: He’s not human, he’s fae. A captain of the Fae Queen’s Guard, Luc is on a dangerous mission—and he could use the help of a certain leprechaun-hunting reporter. But when their two worlds collide, the sparks begin to fly. If Corinne and Luc can’t control their lust—and focus on the villains in this story—their faerie-tale romance won’t end happily ever after…
