    About this ebook

    Rory Harper led a happy life. A brilliant programmer, she had no need for sex or relationships. But one crazy night, she was abducted and whisked across the border into Faerie.

    Now she learns she is the lost Queen of Summer. Her body transformed into a gorgeous woman, will she be able to leash her growing desires before it is too late? She is now Aurora, and she is being "Seduced by the Fae!"

    ~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~

    Aurora looked at her image, and gasped.

    That is not me. It’s a trick. It can’t be true. She raised a hand to her face in disbelief, her eyes widening as her reflection did the same.

    I’m...beautiful.

    Indeed, calling her beautiful seemed as redundant as calling Mount Everest “big” or the Grand Canyon “Man, really deep, yo.”

    Her hair...she reached up. Formerly a limp, mousy brown, now it burst forth from her scalp in reddish-gold abundance, curling around her face before falling in waves over her shoulders and down her back. Her mouth was generous and sensual, with full, pouting lips drawn up in a coquettish bow. The crooked place in her nose was gone. Her cheeks were no longer hollow and pale, but full, with high, arching cheekbones that drew the eye, and her eyebrows curled in delicate wings, giving her a winsome look.

    And that was only the smallest change.

    Her legs were longer. Much longer. She could see the way the cuffs of her beige, no-nonsense slacks now stopped a good three inches above her ankles. And the slacks themselves were uncomfortably tight around her legs, which were noticeably fuller, her thighs straining at the cheap polyester. She shifted, trying to ease the too-tight fit, and to her mortification, her pants ripped, exposing a long glimpse of golden-tan skin. And that was not all. Before, her hips had been so boyish that she was forced to buy men’s clothes in an effort to disguise just how bony her hips and rear were. But now the waist of her slacks was almost painfully snug, the curves of her hips pushing at the tight-stretched fabric in an effort to escape.

    And still there was more.

    With her new height, her blouse had pulled out of her waistband of her slacks. She trailed her fingers across the warm, glowing skin of her stomach, somehow soft and muscular at the same time. And even higher up...she swallowed.

    It couldn’t be real. They couldn’t be real.

      The room was quiet.

      Which was all that Rory Harper could have wanted. Deep within the confines of Maplethorpe Financial, her fingers flickered across her keyboard, her mind dancing with the rhythms of the code.

      She loved computers. Computers were so…simple. You told them what to do, and they did it. And if they weren’t doing what they were supposed to, it was probably your fault for not telling them to do the right thing.

      Not like people. She frowned distractedly, though her fingers didn’t miss a stroke. People were the opposite of simple. Even if you said the right thing, they could take it the wrong way. So many ways of communicating. Words, tone, accent, inflection, and phrasing. The expression on your face or the tilt of your head could make a simple declarative statement into something completely other.

      A knock sounded on her door, which was then pushed open. Rory? It’s time for lunch.

      She didn’t look up. Lunch? What?

      Lunch, the cheerful voice said firmly. You know. The meal between breakfast and dinner?

      I’m busy, she replied, trying to concentrate. Come back in an hour.

      No way. Silvia Martinez walked across the beige carpet, and to her horror, began to stab at random buttons on her keyboard, ignoring her efforts to bat away her fingers.

      Silvia! Stop that! You’ll ruin it!

      I will, she said, "if you stop working yourself to the bone and eat a meal."

      She heaved a sigh. Fine. Saving her work, she locked her laptop and stood up. You are a horrible friend.

      "But I am your friend. Come on. Let’s eat."

      So what are your plans for the weekend? she asked politely, once she and Silvia were seated at a small café near the office. She took a sip of water.

      Silvia’s dark eyes danced with a merry gleam. "Carlos and I are dumping the kids off on their grandparents. So we have the weekend to ourselves. My folks are picking them up as soon as I get home from work tonight, and we’re not taking them back until Sunday afternoon. We’re going to have some fun. A romantic dinner tonight, then we’re going out all day tomorrow. Maybe to the lake, maybe to the parks, and then dancing at the club where we met tomorrow night. She winked at her. Maybe nine months from now, Valentina and Mateo will have a baby brother or sister."

      That’s sounds nice. She picked at her salad.

      Silvia put her head on one side. "Why don’t you come out with us tomorrow night, chica? Carlos has a lot of single friends. We could hook you up with a date."

      She smiled thinly. No thanks. I’m not interested.

      Silvia sat back in her chair. I don’t get you, Rory. I really don’t. How do you expect to find someone if you spend all day behind a computer at work or holed up in that apartment of yours?

      I’m not interested in meeting anyone, Silvia. Her words were almost sharp. Ever.

      Silvia shook her head sadly. It was such a waste. Her friend was kind, decent, friendly when she wasn’t distracted by the wonders of computer technology, and completely hopeless where men were concerned.

      She didn’t even try! It was enough to make a friend cry, it really was. No one would call Rory attractive. But she wasn’t ugly, either. The problem was she didn’t even seem to care! Her clothes were nondescript to the point of blending into the woodwork, shapeless beiges and browns that didn’t flatter her tall, slender body at all. Her mousy brown hair was held back in a tail, and only reached its current length because Rory couldn’t be bothered to style it.

      No perfume, no cosmetics…she sighed. The only attractive feature she had were a pair of glorious green eyes. Deep-set beneath her brows, they were a dark, brilliant jade, the color of oak leaves on a summer morning.

      I’ve told you before, Silvia. Rory’s voice gentled, though she was still looking down at her salad. I’m not interested in men. At all. Or women, either, she added when she opened her mouth. Her tone took on an unaccustomedly hard edge. I’m not interested in sex, period.

      "But-’’

      "I’ve told you before. I’m asexual. I don’t want sex. I don’t need sex. I’m not interested in sex. A delicate shudder seemed to course through her body. All those things that women do with men…tongues and penises and all that. I think it’s just plain gross."

      "Don’t knock it until-’’

      You’ve tried it? A sad smile crossed her thin lips. "I have. Twice. Once with a man. Once with a woman. It was as much fun as sitting through church with my mother. No thanks.

      Come on, Silvia. I’ve told you this before. Why can’t you just accept it?

      She sighed. I know. And I’m sorry. But it seems so weird.

      No weirder than wanting to have a man stick his penis into your vagina, from where I sit.

      But that’s…

      Perfectly normal? Her lips turned up in genuine amusement.

      Silvia colored, a blush heating her skin as she realized how she had stumbled into Rory’s trap. All right. She took a bite of her chicken wrap. And I do apologize. I won’t mention it again. Ever. I promise.

      Please don’t, her friend sighed. I try not to talk about my sexuality if I don’t have to. No one understands. Not even you, though I know you try. A hand reached out to touch her wrist. I know you mean well, Silvia. But talking about it is like having seven toes on each foot. Sometimes you’d just rather leave your shoes on.

      All right. But why don’t you go out with us anyway? she persisted. "Even if you aren’t looking to
