Join Science Fiction Book Club for a great deal on MISTRAL'S KISS
Heir to the throne of her aunt Andais, the Queen of Air and Darkness, Princess Meredith is virtually a prisoner in faerie, trapped there with some of the realm's most beautiful men. They serve as her bodyguards and lovers, for she must have as much sex as possible if she is to conceive a child to succeed her on the throne. Yet there is still no baby. If Merry doesn't get with child soon, not only will she never be queen, she will probably die at the hands of her cousin Cel or his followers. It's an incentive for making love no aphrodisiac can match.
But something happens when Mistral, Andais's captain of the guard, arrives to ask Merry's guidance…and falls into her bed. The power of their passion transports her and her consorts to the dead gardens, once fertile underground lands in the heart of faerie. There, they are confronted by Andais and her terrible wrath. But even she hesitates to punish Mistral, because their joining has reawakened powers so ancient that no one—not even Merry's strongest and most favored guards—can stand against them and survive.
If Merry can reclaim control of that power and make the dead gardens live again, she may be able to quash the schemes and subterfuges swirling around her. But the gods of faerie care little for what she wants…. Jacket art by Judy York. Warning: Explicit sex and language. (212 pp.) 2006.
