Seduced by Moonlight Book

The third novel in Laurell K Hamilton's Meredith Gentry series, Seduced by Moonlight continues the story of Merry Gentry, a mortal Faerie princess hiding in LA Her aunt, the immortal and insane Queen of Air and Darkness, has ordered her to compete with her cousin, Prince Cel, in making a baby. Whoever produces a child first wins the throne of the Unseelie Court. But Merry still hasn't conceived--and that's not her only problem. Unknown assassins seek her life; her magical powers are becoming potent and uncontrollable; and her sadistic aunt has just commanded her to return to Faerie.Readers tired of mild modern fairy-tales about nice, polite elves may want to explore the Meredith Gentry series, which remembers that Faerie was originally a dark, dangerous realm of sex and violence. Hamilton's Queen of Air and Darkness is a vicious killer and torturer, and many of her fay drink blood or practice kinky sex (or both). Under royal orders to bed many males, Merry is far from averse; she and several lovers hit the bedroom on page eight of Seduced by Moonlight and don't emerge until page 175. There's no shortage of sex, but not as much as the page-count may indicate; the characters like to talk and sulk even more than they like to fornicate. The large cast and complicated backstory make this book the wrong starting point for the uninitiated; newcomers should begin with the first novel, A Kiss of Shadows. --Cynthia WardRead More

    To some I am Meredith Gentry P.I. To others I am Princess Merry heir to the throne of Faerie. And there are those who whisper that I am both of these and more. ; My aunt the Queen of Air and Darkness no long distracted by her sadistic pastimes is now focussing unwaveringly on me. I spend each night with my immortal guards but still no child has come of our decadent pleasures. But something IS happening to me. I appear to have awakened something that's lain dormant for thousands of years and the thing is I haven't the damndest idea how or why... ; ; It all began with the chalice. I dreamed of it and it was there - cool and hard - when I awoke. My guards know this ancient relic well - its disappearance so many ages ago stripped them of their vital powers. And here it is with us now. My touch resonates with its force. A strange dazzling magic now courses through my half-mortal half-Sidhe body. But while my guards cherish me for this unexpected gift there are those who loathe me for it - those who would see the Unseelie court suffer rather than have it ruled over by me a mongrel queen. My enemies grow in number every day. If only they knew what I am capable of. Come to that if only I did too... ; ; Welcome back to the world of Meredith Gentry a twilight world of gods shapeshifters and immortal souls a world full of sensuality wild magic treacherous deceits and the delicious anticipation of latent powers unleashed...
