"Readers will relish this delightful realm where vampyre meets fae"
Vampyre Abhartach yields the magical ancient sword THE
BLOOD RUBY to execute his cousin Quentin Moore of Dun
Drac'ola. However, instead of slicing off his head,
somehow the sword shatters when contacting Quentin's neck. Vampyre Fairy Queen Lhiannon Sidhe has waited all her life
for the mating with the Sun's chosen one that would fulfill
the prophecy and form an alliance between the Fae and
Drac'olian peoples. Quentin, who is now her prisoner, is
that warrior. He wants this sex goddess desperately but
rejects her lures for fear she cannot survive their mating.
As his captivity continues, his resistance begins slipping. Though he fails to cooperate, the Fae gives him The Blood
Ruby, which was not destroyed when it "shattered" upon
touching his neck, as he needs the sword if he is to save
his soul. Meanwhile time is running out for Lhiannon must
mate with Quentin soon in order to conceive a child and
fulfill the prophecy. However, Abhartach controls
Lhiannon's sister Queen Aeval making life quite dangerous
for their relatives, but even more so if they fail to mate
and conceive. This supernatural novella provides the audience with a deep
look at two races who seem diametrically opposite as
species yet share so much. The Sidhe sisters and the two
cousins are fully developed though Abhartach is too
malevolent with no redeeming quality to make him less
cartoonish. The story line is fast-paced and those fans
that want to read something new and fresh (even check the
names out) will relish this delightful realm where vampyre
meets fairy. As a special bonus there is a vey erotic short story at the
end of this work The Silk Garters about a woman who
has the most erotic night of her life thanks to magical
garters that bring sexual fantasies to life. This is a very
spicy tale. Harriet Klausner
