The In Between

By Gracen Miller

We’re in between Christmas and New Years, and in between 2013 and 2014! This is the moment when we have high hopes for a new year, setting new year’s resolutions, and when we resolve to leave our wrongs in the past and start over fresh. We’ve all had those moments where we’re “in between” the bad and good? One wrong move and everything will crash and burn? Or if you navigate it just right, the payout will be huge? In my 1Night Stand book, Fairy Casanova, the main characters, Sadie and Jace, are in that “in between” moment in their lives.

Sadie wants one night with a stranger to forget the mess she’s made of her life. Jace wants one night with his fantasy, a human woman, before putting everyone else above his needs and becoming the crowned King of fairies. Both want something different than what they get, but the payout can be huge!

Jace isn’t afraid to face the challenge of a fidgety woman that fascinates him and her icy demeanor captivates him. He has one chance to make his fantasy come true—one night with a mortal woman—and he’ll make damn sure her desires are fulfilled too… 

“I’m Jace.”
She swallowed and cleared her throat, but her voice came out low and raspy. “Sadie.”
He dipped his finger into the crystal glass she held poised below her chin. A fat droplet of liquor clung to his forefinger, and he spread it across her pouty bottom lip. Her eyes widened, and her breathing noticeably accelerated. As if prompted, her tongue swiped away the moisture, and his cock twitched in reaction.

Who wouldn’t want a Fairy Casanova dedicated to all their erotic pleasures? I sooo want one!! Sadie wants a man to make her forget her deplorable love life and a career that has shattered against unwise decisions… 

His appearance fit none of the attributes she requested. She’d wanted tattoos and so many piercings he would disturb a satellite feed. With his tangible arrogance, he fit the attorney mold and represented the kind of courtroom scandal she wished to avoid. She hoped he wasn’t her one-nighter, but color her confused, because at the same time, she hoped he was. What a dilemma!
Her heartbeat quickened, remembering the way he’d smeared liquor across her lip. She took a deep breath as a flash of heat raced over her body. She definitely wanted him to be her lover for the evening.
“Are you sure you have the correct room?” She held her breath waiting, for his answer, as mixed desires torpedoed through her. She’d be horrified to discover too late he wasn’t her intended partner. His intense, honey-hued stare prickled her skin with awareness, and she couldn’t deny wondering what it might feel like to have him thrusting inside her. If he was in the right room, she’d soon find out. If he wasn’t, she would somehow wrangle her disappointment under control.
“Yes. Here’s my key.” He held up the plastic key card and tossed it casually on the mini-bar. Amusement crinkled the corners of his eyes. 

But could you believe someone you just met if they told you they were a fairy? How would you react? With shock, or as Sadie… 

She lived and breathed balderdash in the courtroom, and she could sniff out lies better than a hound dog could sniff out quarry. “You’re a fairy? Give me a break.”
“It’s true.”
Sadie glared at him, any amusement she might have felt shifting straight into irritation. “How fantastic for you.” And horrifying for me! 

Fairy Casanova will take you on a wild sensual ride that’ll leave you panting right along with Jace and Sadie.

Thanks for joining me today! Happy belated holidays and I hope everyone has a very Happy New Year!

Huggles,

Where you can stalk me—not really!—but I would love to meet and interact with you:


Fairy Casanova Blurb:

Las Vegas lawyer, Sadie Sinclair, has hit rock bottom. Bankrupt, with her reputation ruined, and her fiancé is yachting Aruba with a hot babe. Desperate for a break from reality, she contacts 1NightStand and is shocked to discover she’s been paired with a sexy fairy.  


Jace is about to become King of the fairies. One minor glitch, he’s obsessed with humans. Before becoming King, he wants one night with a human before he’s forever forbidden from crossing into the human realm.  After a stellar night of sex, Jace is surprised to discover Sadie isn’t just a human, but his mate.  Complicating everything with the revelation, he’s willing to forfeit his kingdom for her, but Sadie must decide if he’s worth the biggest gamble yet.

Fairy Casanova Excerpt:

Knocking once to warn her of his arrival, he used the key card to let himself into the room. The door clicked shut behind him as he scanned the room for his evening’s companion.
“Hello,” she said when their eyes met.
Her sultry voice tempted him, much as a Siren lured a man to his demise against the rocky coast of her island. His mortal Siren offered him a shy wave.
“Want a drink?” She held up a goblet, half-full of amber liquor.
Her edginess socked his acute fairy senses like a blow to the gut.
Interesting. Why was she here then?
“No, thanks.” He moved toward her, intrigued by the competing vibes the woman evoked…reserved and salacious.
Maybe other men found the arctic chill of her gaze daunting. He found it intriguing, even challenging. Women would be envious and intimidated by her high-level eroticism.
Stunning, and nothing like the fairies he would command. Long, shiny, black hair framed her oval face. He couldn’t wait to get his fingers in the wavy locks. Gunmetal-silver eyes warily watched him. Rimmed in a thin stripe of black eyeliner and splashed with a smidge of dark-gray shadow, the contrast brought out the stellar shade of her irises. High cheekbones, a slightly upturned nose, and wide lips, naturally dark red, or she’d been biting them in anxiety. Unlike the diminutive fairy-women, she was tall—not more than an inch or two shorter than his five-ten height. Most female fairies barely reached his chest, which made her a charming oddity. And she owned killer curves—again, unlike most beanpole-thin fairies—and those curves were framed in an evocative, skintight, black cocktail dress.
Jace stopped in front of her and stared at her mouth. He knew many places he wanted those lips, but mostly he wanted them rounded on an orgasmic scream.
“I’m Jace.”
She swallowed and cleared her throat, but her voice came out low and raspy. “Sadie.”
He dipped his finger into the crystal glass she held poised below her chin. A fat droplet of liquor clung to his forefinger, and he spread it across her pouty bottom lip. Her eyes widened, and her breathing noticeably accelerated. As if prompted, her tongue swiped away the moisture, and his cock twitched in reaction.
“You’re perfect. Stunning.”
She laughed, a charming sound, as a blush crept across her cheeks. For the first time since beginning his adventure, he considered the horrible ramifications of falling hard for a human. Impossible! There wouldn’t be enough time to grow attached to a one-night stand. Neither would his parents nor soon-to-be subjects approve.
