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.
