"I am Meredith Gentry, P.I. and Princess Merry, heir to the throne of Fairie. Now there are those among me who whisper I am more. They fear me even as they protect me. And who can blame them? I've awakened the dazzling magic that's slumbered in them for thousands of years. But the thing is, I can't figure out why.My aunt, the Queen of Air and Darkness, is no longer distracted by her usual sadistic hobbies. Her obsession has turned unwaveringly to me. The mission to get me pregnant and beat my cousin Prince Cel to the crown is taking longer than expected. Even though I spend each night with the Queen's Ravens, my immortal guards, no child has come of our decadent pleasures. But something else "is happening. My magic courses through me uncontrollably. And as I lock my half-mortal body with their full-Sidhe blooded ones, the power surges like never before.It all began with the chalice. I dreamed of it, and it appeared, cool and hard, beside me when I awoke. My guards know the ancient relic well--its disappearance ages ago stripped them of their vital powers. But it is here with us now. My touch resonates with its force, and they're consumed with it, their Sidhe essences lit up by it. But even as they cherish me for this unexpected gift, there are those who loathe me for it. Me, a mongrel, only half fey and part mortal. The Unseelie court has suffered for so long, and there are some who would not have it weakened further by an impure queen. My enemies grow in number every day. But they do not know what I am capable of. Nor, for that matter, do I. . . . "In Seduced by Moonlight," Laurell K. Hamilton brings the dark, erotic reign of the immortal fey to a startling new depth. Full ofsensuality and the consuming anticipation of latent powers unleashed, this world of gods, shapeshifters, and immortal souls is unveiled in all of its supreme magnificence and its treacherous deceits.

Seduced By Moonlight continues the story of Merry Gentry (aka Princess Meredith) and gives you more insight into where she comes from, who she is and why so many strange things are happening to her. You really need to read all of the books in this series to get the full picture. Even though it works as an interesting (if slightly confusing) stand-alone, when a book is part of a series, then it should be read that way. I adore Laurell K Hamilton, and can never put her books down. Some of her books may be strange, but she truly never fails to take the reader for one hell of a ride.
It is not just the packet of life savers five fruits colored Sidhe bodyguards that the princess has to romp around with, you can add goblins into the mix as well. Those goblin types like eating people too, so this can be a little problematic.
Then there is the whole possed by powerful Sidhe god types, as well. This could all really leave one woman sore.
Unfortunately, this book didnt quite do it for me. A very slow start, which carried on right through until closer to the end of the book, where the story started to pick up. The story line was so thick with dramatic words, that it was just an overkill. Some of the more sexually referenced phrases were very dominatrix, almost sadistic, and I found that there was too much sexual behaviour in the book. Although, not a complete let down. You learn a bit more about the characters of the Unseelie Court and, eventually you to get to the point of Princess Merediths Plight. A disappointing follow up to the last Laurell Hamilton book.
Another erotic and action packed romp of a book. Hamilton writes with her usual trademark and highly seductive style. A blend of sidhe magic, political intrigue, erotic and sizzling scenes and action based in the modern world. Combined with hugely entertaining and charismatic characters to make this a powerful and vivid story. Highly enjoyable and not one to be missed for Hamilton fans.
