his fiancé anyway because it was an arranged marriage. Instead, he
convinced Keely to accompany him on his honeymoon…. Oh my!
*** What a delightful collection of stories! This impressive author
took the concept of the young faery Keely and brought her through
the ages (Faeries live thousands of years, don’t cha know!) from
pesky adolescent to adulthood. In each story she is sometimes
charming, sometimes bossy, but always amusing in her antics and
smart aleck dialogs. Each tale is charming all on its own and you
will learn a lot about faery life from this wonderfully conceived
and precious collection of short stories that will entertain you
from the first to last page!
