“The Unsee--what?” #MFRWhooks

Daughter of the Dark Moon
by Holly Bargo

Twin Moons Saga Book 3

Worlds fear the powerful, ruthless, and cold-hearted Unseelie king. Deposed and his kingdom conquered, Uberon answers the call of a young human woman's soul and claims her as his mate. Corinne's clever mind captivates him, her compassion intrigues him, her beauty enchants him, and her body stokes his libido like nothing else ever did or could.

Discovering that myths and legends really are based in fact, Corinne soon learns her fate as the Unseelie king's chosen mate and the consequences of fae immortality as she adapts to a new world and her relationship with Uberon develops. She revels in Uberon's passion and shoulders the burden of power and responsibility beyond anything she ever dreamed.

Excerpt

“I want you to come with me,” Uberon said, his voice easing into the late afternoon heat as though it belonged amid the sounds of birds, insects, and the occasional yip of a coyote.

“Mm, where?”

“To the Unseelie Court.”

“The Unsee--what?”

He met her shocked gaze with equanimity.

“You have got to be kidding me,” she muttered and averted her eyes. “You cannot expect me to believe you’re an evil fairy.”

“Not evil, dark.” He did not mention that the distinction had more to do with the fair-haired characteristics of the Seelie Court than with any tendencies toward evil.

“Evil, dark, what’s the difference? And do not tell me you’re a fairy.”

“I am fae, what humans once called sidhe or sith.”

“This is insane.”

“Why should it be insane?” He released her foot and picked up the other one.

“B-because that’s just myth. You know, legend. Fairy tales!”

He shrugged, the movement of those broad shoulders capturing her attention. “And you are a witch. Why cannot I be fae?”
