About this listen
Eighteen years ago, my parents traded my life to save my baby sister. Faerie magic is wild and willful, and to deviate from my place as a changeling servant would mean risking my sister’s life. I’m well cared for by my fae master, a froggy old bogle who isn't half as fearsome as he pretends to be. But I can’t help wanting more.
Stolen trinkets and hidden mementos from the human world, glimpses of another life seen through books and plastic toys, and thin spots in the veil between worlds—they aren’t enough. I want to go home. But my heart is growing more attached to this world, and to one beautiful, eccentric elf. I just might give up humanity to stay at his side, even if I’ll never be anything more than a lowly servant.
But my elf has secrets of his own, and they are more dangerous than my magic binding or his disregard for the line between light and dark….
Light of Day is a 30,000-word fantasy romance novella. It is part 1 of 3 in the Forever After series. Be aware this novella ends on a “to be continued” feel, though the main plot thread does come to a close (for now.)
Author’s Notes
This series overall has varying levels of heat, as well as occasional violence and adult language. It is a bit sweeter/slower burn than some of my other books. While I have done my best to research, I did have some difficulty finding examples of pronunciation for a couple of the Irish/Celtic creature names in this story. Please be aware these may not be 100 percent accurate. Please feel free to contact me via my website if you are a native speaker and would like to offer corrections.
Story length definitions, for those who don’t know. This can be confusing—and guidelines are general, but I like to inform listeners so we are all on the same page.

Since her father's sudden death, all Evie wants is comfort and security for her family, especially from dragon cagers. The two-tongued serpents are said to take the shape of a man, woo their ill-fated victims, and then devour them whole. But no one ever told Evie she could be kindred to the creatures. When Evie is framed and exiled, a cager called Lachlann discovers her roaming in the barren dragon country. Now, while being hunted by the same slayers seeking his magic-imbued heart, Evie must put her trust in Lachlann and seek out his clan for help.

As he looked in my direction with unseeing lavender eyes, I quickly realized our age was just about the only thing we had in common. He spoke with an accent, he had pointy ears, and he was so beautiful it made my heart ache. Oh, and he claimed to be a fae prince cursed by witches who stole his sight. I thought he was crazy from hypothermia. Turns out, he wasn’t, and for some reason he keeps coming back. But a day in my world is a year in his. Every time I see him, he’s older. Wiser. Hotter.

Everyone dreams of marrying a prince - except for me. I am nothing more than a pawn in my adoptive mother's diabolical plot against the seven kingdoms.
