Book description
I am Meredith Gentry, P. I. and Princess Merry, heir to the
throne of Fairie. I have departed the safe haven of Los
Angeles to face the peril and deception of my first home, the Unseelie
court. There, my enemies are many, and my guards may not be able to
protect me from the treachery of the unseen foes that will stop at
nothing to keep me from the throne.
As for my quest to produce an heir and thereby save myself and all
that is faerie from utter destruction - well, I am still trying. As
pregnancy becomes ever more urgent, I must leave the protected beds of
the Queen's Ravens and lie with other men, men whose designs and
allegiances remain in question. And a night of delirious passion will
transport me and my new lovers to another place, the mysterious dead
gardens - an event that portends great unrest in the forces of magic.
In order to save myself and those I love, I must walk into the very
mouth of danger, and visit the Goblins in their lair - as well as the
cunning King Taranis himself, who has an astonishing proposal for me.
For I alone hold the power to rescue the universe, even if it requires
aligning with my greatest and most dangerous of adversaries. But I'm
running out of time. . . .
