"Part fairy tale farce, part romance"

Damon the Dark wants to seduce an angel so he can return to hell; Devon just wants chocolate, an Alka-Seltzer, and a trip home; and Alex just wants a quiet, peaceful life -- with Devon.

So when his best friend Devon steps into a fairy ring and disappears, Alex Gordon must become the exact thing he fears, a warrior set out to save the fair maiden. Unfortunately for Devon, she gets passed off as an angel fallen to earth to appease the demon. Add a castle, a thorn forest, living stone gargoyles, nasty fairies, and a bumbling wizard to the mix, and you get an amusing, quick- paced, humor-filled bit of light reading.

Part fairy tale farce, part romance, PERHAPS is a fish-out- of-water story told from the viewpoints of the hero, the heroine, and the demon. The slyly written dialog and action give it an almost slapstick feel at times. The author manages to slip in the obligatory soul-searching the hero and heroine must do to decide if they belong together. No easy task considering they're apart for most of the story. Even so, the action and quick dialog hold the elements together well. It reminded me somewhat of "A Knight's Tale". Altogether a funny, enjoyable read. I recommend it.
