According to legend, the sexual magnetism of snake shifters rivals that of vampires, and the lust that ignites between magical dancer Antjuan and snake shifter Seth proves it.
When a case involving stolen elfin coins leads police officer Joel to Dylan, an elf with a shady past, it’s the beginning of a relationship neither man ever dreamed of and a danger neither suspects.
Cass, a gardener at a magical museum, falls for Fidel, a Transcendent tree sprite, but their love is threatened when a killer begins stalking Transcendent sprites.
The Yummy Love box set contains the previously released novellas Coconut Cream Pie, Blueberry Muffins, and Apple Crisp.
Excerpt:
Once he’d finished the interrogation, Joel sat back for a moment and studied Dylan. As a cop in Grimton City, it was easy to become cynical. It was rare that he came upon someone like this elf–truthful from the first and sincere in his desire to help others. Usually during an interrogation it took time for Joel to peel through layers of lies, but not this time.
Joel had little experience with elves. Dylan was the only full-blooded elf he’d met in Grimton City. Most elves dwelled in the Wicked Wild and rarely left their villages. Crime was rumored to be non-existent among them, but Joel found that difficult to believe. Elves were known for being truthful and non-violent, but in every society there was someone, somewhere, who enjoyed causing trouble.
His brow furrowed as it occurred to him that maybe Dylan was the troublemaker. What else was he doing here, away from his fellow elves?
Looking into Dylan’s amber eyes, he saw flames burning beneath their cool surface. A smile tugged at Joel’s lips. It had been a long time since someone sparked his interest and aroused him as much as this elf.
Dylan was tall and lean with broad shoulders and a body of supple muscle. He had strong features for an elf. They tended to have delicate faces, but Dylan had a longish nose and a strong jaw, accentuated by a neatly-trimmed goatee. Also unusual; Elves tended to be clean-shaven.
He also had that long, black-as-ink hair. Joel found it incredibly sexy and hadn’t been able to resist touching it earlier. Yes, it had been under the pretense of brushing it out of Dylan’s face when he’d been bound by the handcuffs, but the gesture had been as much for Joel as for the elf.
Even now he had the urge to take Dylan’s face in his hands and kiss him. He wanted to know how those full lips would feel against his.
This was insane.
Never in his life had Joel fallen for someone he’d picked up for questioning.
Reviews:
For Apple Crisp:
Ms. Hill writes interesting characters, though fantastic, that are easy to identify with.
