Description
I received so many emails asking about the queen of Fae who appears in all my Legend books. So here she is--Aaibhe's backstory. This is a stand alone novella, but, as Spellbound-Legend is now free, I would start with that and you will perhaps enjoy this even more.
I so so hope you enjoy and thanks so much if you give my Legend series a try. :) Claudy



Seventy thousand years is a long time to live without true love.

As queen of the Seelie Fae, Aaibhe led her people to a new world when their own had been destroyed by war. She accepted the responsibility of maintaining the magic-built walls that imprisoned the evil Dark Fae. She kept the Seelie Hallows safe. And though she enjoyed the companionship of an occasional Fae lover, she never took a royal Fae as her king or a non-royal as her consort.

Conall is a Druid high priest from the MacTalbots, one of the families chosen by Aaibhe centuries before to perform the rituals needed to strengthen the Unseelie prison walls. Though a skilled and loyal Druid priest, he is but a mortal human, not a fit match for a powerful, formidable, immortal ruler.

And yet… she wants him. In all her seventy thousand years, she has never been blasted with such desire—and need. She has never before laughed with total abandon, loved with all her essence.

In Conall’s arms, Aaibhe discovers she can be both a queen and a woman, but jealousy, pride, and bitterness threaten the love that is at last within her grasp.

Excerpt:
Even a queen must have her pleasures …

With a flick of a finger, she laid a blanket onto the damp grass, sat, and beckoned for him to join her.
He did, and as she looked into his blue eyes, she asked herself what she was doing.
She knew the answer. She absolutely knew what she was doing. She didn’t have cumbersome human scruples, but she did have a sense of what was owed to the office she possessed as queen. She told herself even a queen must have her pleasures…
Was it just that, a voice inside her head asked her, just a fleeting pleasure? Was it just a bit of romance, pretty words, and physical release? Pleasures where no one would get hurt? Or was it something else, that voice demanded of her, was this a link with destiny?
She knew a need to be in this human’s arms, and a sudden urge to get there made her feel weak with desire. She banished the wayward urge as she reminded herself she was a queen, but when he took her hand to his lips, she was nearly overcome with the rush of heat that sped through her veins.

I love Aaibhe Shee Queen!As always, Claudy Conn has left me hungry for more. I've been intrigued by her Legend series from the start. Her characters are always so very interesting, well developed, and diverse. And her settings are so deliciously exotic and marvelously detailed that I find myself in her world of Fae each time I read one of the installments.

Anyone who has met the queen in the Legend series, will love this backstory. If you haven't read the legend series, you will want to after you have read this. It explains so much and intrigues.

Very erotic but the end is anticlimatic. Started with good plot but started to dwindle...
