Megan O’Malley gives in to drunken temptation and pinches a cute guy at her cousin’s wedding. Who’d have thought a perfectly normal guy was a leprechaun or that he’d have such a bad attitude about giving away his money?! Now that she’s captured him, Megan may be five million dollars richer, but she’s also got an angry leprechaun camped out on her sofa, doing his best to prevent her from becoming the business mogul of her dreams!
Fergus O’Reilly cannot figure out what he’s done to upset the Queen of the Fairies. He was working hard to rebuild his family’s honor when he took one small break to help friends play a wedding. Then some drunken lady pinched his ass, the Queen declared him caught, and now he’s broke, homeless, and hustling to stop the lovely lady with the wandering fingers from spending his money! This would be so much easier if she wasn’t cute and caring and determined to help with his so-called money addiction!
Fun, Fresh Romance and Humor
I finished reading this book last evening, and I must say I really enjoyed the author’s imagination and fresh voice, full of humor and fun. And there were lots of plot twists and turns to keep the reader hooked.
It was refreshing to read a book set in the mid-West of the U.S. in a small town. The author really brought the feel of the town alive, and created convincing characters to populate it.
The economic stimulus part of the story was interesting as well. It added to our understanding of and compassion for the main character.
Leprechauns and fairies are fresh and fun elements in a romance story. The author fleshes out the details about the mythology bit by bit, not overwhelming the reader with information. We learn about them right along with the main character, Megan.
And the romance part works too! Handsome, charismatic, charming, temperamental Fergus keeps the reader guessing as to what is going on in his Leprechaun mind. But when he finally makes his move, things heat up quickly. Lucky Megan!
