I am Princess Meredith, heir to a throne–if I can stay alive long enough to claim it.
My cousin, Prince Cel, is determined to see that I don’t. As long as we both live, we are in a race for the crown: Whichever one of us reproduces first gets the throne. So now the men of my royal guard– frightening warriors skilled with blade, spell, and gun–have become my lovers, auditioning with pleasure for the role of future king and father of my child. And they must still protect me from assassination attempts–for unlike most of the fey, I am part human, and very mortal. All this royal back-stabbing makes it very difficult for me to pursue my living as a private investigator in Los Angeles, especially since the media made sure the whole world knows the Faerie princess is alive and well in sunny California.
Now, in the City of Angels, people are dying in mysterious, frightening ways. What the human police don’t realize is that the killer is hunting the fey as well. Havoc lies on the horizon: the very existence of the place known as Faerie is at grave risk. So now, while I enjoy the greatest pleasures of my life with my guardians, I must fend off an ancient evil that could destroy the very fabric of reality. And that’s just my day job.
I'm not a huge fan of the Anita Black series which I find too tame for my taste but after reading Kiss of Shadow, the first Merry Gentry book all I could say was "more". It got on my nerves to have to wait for "A caress of twilight" but when I got my hands on it as for the first book I couldn't put it down.
This series is a political-sex-paranormal thriller where sex is used not for love but to gain political power in the two courts (seelie and unseelie).
Merry is a paranormal PI working for the Grey agency. She has been assigned to help Maeve Reed another sidhe from the seelie court. Maeve is not only a sidhe she's also a former goddess in exile from the seelie court where King Taranis banished her a century ago.
In Caress of twilight Merry has her hands full of sidhes (pun inteded) and the storie grows as Merry comes into her powers and responsibilities, sending us into a spiral of actions, both in and out of bed.
And now I just can't wait to be home to read the third book in this fantastic serie "Seduced by moonlight"
