"spellbinding paranormal romance"
Queen Mab of the Seelie has banned all travel to the human
realm; however that does not prevent her most rebellious
relative, her niece Princess Fiona from going on vacation
in New York to party at punk clubs of the Village.
However, upon arriving in Central park, Fiona is attacked
by a demon, who should not be there. Patrolling the
streets to avert any incidents between the Others
(vampires and werewolves who have come out of the closet
and in to the night) and humans while rights negotiations
are going on, Tobias Walker, beta werewolf of the
Silverback clan saves Fiona's life. For some unknown magical reason, Fiona cannot return home
through the portal she came from. Tobias keeps her safe
while further assaults on her from demons occur. As the
werewolf and the Seelie realize they are soul mates, they
also think a malevolent Armageddon type devastation is
coming amidst all the realms with no hope to thwart the
evil except perhaps the most powerful magic of them all,
love. SHE'S NO FAERIE PRINCESS is a delightful charming romantic
fantasy with a touch of chick lit that will make
believers out of skeptics that there are more sentient
species in this universe than humans. Fiona is a fabulous
rebel without a cause who suddenly has several causes.
Tobias is bone weary tired but now has a new complication
especially if her Aunt Mab learns that her niece is in
Manhattan fighting demons and sleeping in a werewolf's
home; that is before he realizes he and his beloved must
save the multiverse. This is a spellbinding paranormal
romance. Harriet Klausner

SummaryQueen Mab's niece, Fiona, has long been bored to tears by
the intrigues of Court life. She'd prefer to cut loose at a
punk club, knock back a few Thai beers, and hook up with a
likely lad of similar interests. But when Fiona goes AWOL,
she only gets as far as Manhattan's Inwood Park before a
nasty demon nearly puts a permanent crimp in her plans—and
a dark stranger sparks her desire...
All work and no play make Tobias Walker one cranky
werewolf. After six months of doing his part to keep the
peace during the delicate negotiations between the Others
and humankind, he'd like nothing more than a good night's
sleep—preceded by an enthusiastic mating session. The
alluring woman he rescues in the park might be the answer
to his most lustful prayers, but only if they can both stay
alive long enough to find out who wants her dead and why.
Now, Fiona and Tobias must unravel a tangled web of
treachery that spans branches of the Fae, Other, and mortal
worlds, all the while falling into a dangerous attraction
that could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship—or
the end for them both...
