The Fairy and the Lord of Nightmares

Half-fairy Mair McIntyre lives in complete harmony with herself—she has a beloved, though bloodthirsty, Nemeton tree, a grumpy cat, and a cozy home, and her healer’s knowledge is valued by the Empire’s most influential people.

But one day fate challenges her, and a new patient turns out to be a far greater trial than she expected: he is convinced that a monster has taken up residence in his mind and forces him to commit terrible acts. Will Mair find a way to cure him—and refuse the attraction that she begins to feel toward him?

The mentalist Sebastian tried to hide from people because he was too dangerous for them. But once again finding himself in human society, he learns that he must deal with his ailment to take his rightful place in this world. Will he be able to find wholeness and win the love of the fairy who sees only a patient in him?
