Of Pixies and Promises

As a lethal Reaper, Sid kills monstrous fae. He's spent his life blocking the little voice in his head saying his loyalties are misplaced. But humans can't be wrong. It's the fae who hoard the earth's bounty and banish humanity to live behind cold gray walls. But when a lone, captivating pixie dares to face his soldiers pillaging her forest, he knows his priorities are about to shift.

On the eve of her coronation, Princess Nyra feels less than worthy when her wings refuse to make pixie dust. Without it, she can't choose a consort, let alone receive the power required to keep her gully safe. When she stumbles across humans illegally mining her precious forest, she wants to prove she's still worthy of protecting her people... with or without a consort.

But her sabotage backfires, and her handsome enemy unexpectedly saves her life. Suddenly shrunk to bug size and without magic, they're forced to trust each other to survive the perilous journey home. With each step, their forbidden attraction grows. But when one is lying and a promise is broken, the gully won't be the only thing in danger of becoming a wasteland. Nyra's heart will never flourish again.

This novella is part of the Fae Guardians series but can be read as a standalone.
