Two wrongs don't make a right, but they just might make a perfect match...
Nick Garret is flypaper for females, and he likes it that way. Women stick for a while, and when it's over they fly away. So does he. Then one rain-slick night a young woman steps in front of his pickup truck, and his jaded, cynical life takes a sharp swerve toward trouble.
Calliope did the only thing she could think to get Nick to steer his truck—and his life—in a new direction. Banished from the Fae realm for granting a wish gone bad, her punishment is an impossible task; redeem the unredeemable Nick Garret. If she fails to help him pair three couples in everlasting bliss, he's doomed to never experience real love. And she will share his fate—as a mortal.
Nick can't decide if this charming, exasperating woman is a dream come true, or a saucy, sexy nightmare sent to drive him insane. Yet something about her makes him want to rise to her challenge. He'll do anything to make her stick around a while.
Besides, how much trouble can one half-naked, seemingly wingless faerie be?
Jennifer Colgan has been writing in one form or another for more than 25 years. Having tried fan fiction, poetry, adventure and sci-fi, it wasn't until she decided to try her hand at writing romance that she found her true home. In addition to writing, Jennifer enjoys reading, quilting and candlemaking. Her ultimate goal is to clone herself so that she can spend time on all her favorite activities at once. An avid reader all my life and an aspiring writer since the age of ten, I realized my dream of becoming a published author in 2005. Inspired by the romance novels I devoured as a teen and the science fiction classics, I wanted to combine those elements into my stories. Since beginning my career, I've branched out from science fiction romance into paranormal, contemporary and even historical genres and I hope to continue bringing sexy adventurous tales to my readers for decades to come.
I currently live in the NY-NJ Metropolitan area with my husband of seventeen years, two creative children, a slightly neurotic Dalmatian and two spirited black cats. When not hard at work on a novel or short story, I spend my time reading, quilting and haunting the local craft stores.
Update April 2009:
I'm looking forward to the June release of my Fae romance, THE MATCHMAKERS, and hard at work in my paranormal worlds of witches, vampires and gargoyles! Stay tuned.
