Seduced By Moonlight: (Merry Gentry 3)

Description

To some I am Meredith Gentry, P.I. To others I am Princess Merry, heir to the throne of Faerie. And there are those who whisper that I am both of these and more. My aunt, the Queen of Air and Darkness, no long distracted by her sadistic pastimes, is now focussing unwaveringly on me. I spend each night with my immortal guards, but still no child has come of our decadent pleasures. But something IS happening to me. I appear to have awakened something that's lain dormant for thousands of years and the thing is, I haven't the damndest idea how or why...It all began with the chalice. I dreamed of it, and it was there - cool and hard - when I awoke. My guards know this ancient relic well - its disappearance so many ages ago stripped them of their vital powers. And here it is with us now. My touch resonates with its force. A strange, dazzling magic now courses through my half-mortal half-Sidhe body. But while my guards cherish me for this unexpected gift, there are those who loathe me for it - those who would see the Unseelie court suffer rather than have it ruled over by me, a mongrel queen. My enemies grow in number every day. If only they knew what I am capable of. Come to that, if only I did too...Welcome back to the world of Meredith Gentry, a twilight world of gods, shapeshifters and immortal souls, a world full of sensuality, wild magic, treacherous deceits and the delicious anticipation of latent powers unleashed...

Laurell K. Hamilton is the New York Times bestselling author of nine Meredith Gentry novels as well as the acclaimed Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series. She lives with her family in St. Louis, Missouri.

If you want something different, this is the book for you. Erotic, magical, violent, sensual and thrilling, it is an extraordinary tale of a Faerie in hiding as a private investigator in LA, and is quite simply delicious... Highly recommended -- Sarah Broadhurst * Bookseller * Relentless high-paced trashiness - it's good fun * SFX * Erotic, funny and horrific... probably not one for your granny * Shivers * Very refreshing... Hamilton has an amazing imagination * SF Site *
