Plot This is the sixth book of the series and is narrated by Merry Gentry also known as Princess Meredith NicEssus, Princess of Flesh and Blood heir to the unseelie throne.

The book starts of in a set of Layers offices where they are trying to resolve an issue three of the guards. The guards Galen, Rhys and Abe have been accused of raping a royal in the seelie court and to there surprise King Taranis have called in the human police.

My Opinion I really enjoyed the pace of the book and was glad that the story line didn't have as many sex scenes in as the other books. Not that I'm complaining about the scenes in the other books, it just makes a refreshing change. I also liked how it concentrated on the main men in Merry's life and not all the new guards that have appeared in the latter of the books. I especially like the interaction between Doyle Merry and Frost my favorite characters of the series. There were some unexpected twists which kept me wanting to read more. When I read books I tend to only read a couple of chapters a day, but I was enjoying the book so much that I finished it really quickly. The only thing that annoyed me about the book is that it has the first chapter of the next book inside it. I mean this is ok if you have the next book but if like me you don't have it then you have to wait. All in all I give this book a 9/10, very enjoyable.

Manufacturer's product description
You know me. I am Meredith Gentry, princess and heir apparent to the throne in the realm of Faerie; one-time private investigator in the mortal world. To be crowned queen, I must continue the royal bloodline - I must produce an heir. To fail would allow my aunt, Queen Andais, do what she most desires: to place her twisted son, Cel, upon the throne of Faerie...and kill me. I am surrounded by loyal guards, my best loved - sworn to protect and to love me - yet for all our eager efforts, I remain childless. My sinister Queen and her confederates conspire against me and so my bodyguards and I have slipped back into Los Angeles. But it seems exile is not enough to escape those with dark designs upon us.King Taranis, vainglorious ruler of Faerie's Seelie court, has accused my guards of a heinous crime and asked the mortal authorities to pursue them. If he succeeds, my men will face a hideous fate. I know Taranis' charges are baseless - for his true target is me. He tried to kill me when I was a child. Now I fear his intentions are far more terrifying.
