Princess Meredith NicEssus manifested her power of flesh. She is trying to get pregnant before Cel gets out of his punishment. She has been named coheir with her cousin, Cel. With Cel in punishment, there hasn’t been any attempts on Merry’s life. While being back in L.A., Merry and her guards have started working for the Grey Detective Agency again. The boys are bringing in more and more jobs from stars that need publicity and think that having a Sidhe guarding them will be just the ticket.

While at work with Doyle and Rhys guarding Merry and Kitto under her desk, a man came in wanting to talk about his boss but was too vague on the details. Once it was decided that he could hit around, Merry realized who he was talking about. The Goddess Conchenn who was exiled from the Seelie Court many years ago. She wanted to talk to her but no one was saying what about. The guards and Merry made the decision to go see her and find out for themselves what she wanted. To speak to an exiled sidhe was in itself treason. Merry was beaten by her Uncle Taranis himself who is the King of Light and Illusion, King of the Seelie Court, just for asking why she was exiled. Now she was going to talk to her as Conchenn is now. The actress, Mauve Reed is top dog in Hollywood and lives in the ritzy Holmby Hills. The visit was different for everyone. Once Merry finally found out why Mauve wanted to see her and what she wanted from her was an absolute shocker. Of all the things Merry could think of, she was still surprised about the answer. Also learning why she was exiled was a big plus.

I couldn’t stop turning pages in this one. I have really been taken with this series. Every time I read these books, I seem to be more enthralled and find things that I didn’t notice before but as afterwards I was like OK. I definitely recommend this to everyone with an imagination.
