Fairies Knights and Fools Box Set
Charles Payseur
An immersive video game tester finds his latest assignment is all too real. A pair of fairy tale conmen meet their match. A trickster god discovers the joke might be on him where love is concerned. A giant with a human infestation in his cloud castle can't keep his eyes off the exterminator. These ten stories span genres while consistently lingering on high adventure and sizzling romance.
Contains the stories:
Riding Red: Big and Red are conmen and lovers down on their luck when they learn of an easy mark, a rich old woman who lives alone in the woods. Things get complicated when they find Jack, a trickster himself, already on the scene. When it turns out the little old woman is running a con of her own, all bets are off.
Beta Tester: Noah is a tester of immersive video games, though his personality makes him rather difficult to work with. In fact, his only friend (and serious crush) is his manager, Malik, and when Noah suspects Mal has been working with someone else, he crosses a line that could ruin that.
Questing: Given immortality thanks to a sip from the Holy Grail, Lancelot and Palomides are rivals in the Game, a series of world-spanning quests worth points to the knights to complete them. But when they join forces to track down a lost legend, Lancelot finds his attention isn't on the quest so much as it's on Palomides.
Taste of the Forest, Dark and Sweet: Bastian's kitchen has become anything but since Colin began working with him. But when a series of disasters draw Bastian into a magical world he never knew existed -- a world Colin is part of -- will attraction and amazing food be enough to overcome the barriers keeping the two men apart?
A Friendly Ghostbusting: When Cas, known to the internet as paranormal vlogger Caspar the Friendly Ghostbuster, arrives at a shuttered psychiatric prison slated for demolition, he finds he's not the only one investigating. Can he contain his own stubborn attraction around his friend-turned-rival, Yasahiro, and be the first to get footage of supernatural activity?
Luc Orphelin and the Hodag of Rhinelander: For detective Luc Orphelin, getting sent out to the Northwoods of Wisconsin seems a punishment, but can he find the truth and deal with a devilishly attractive monster hunter at the same time, or will he end up the next victim of the fiendish hodag of Rhinelander?
Fieldwork: Agent Ignacio Ritter is happy serving the CXO from the safety of his desk. Ever since his parents died in the field, danger is the last thing he wants to be a part of. At least, until the charming and dangerous tiger-shifter Agent Reed Daily chooses Ignacio to help close the book on the gang responsible for his parents' deaths.
Trickster69: April Fool's Day is like Christmas for Loki, god of mischief, and this year he's planned something grand: humiliating the noble Thor by provoking his wrath among a town of unwitting mortals.
The Assistant's Contraption: Rascan, world-renowned inventor (or so he likes to think), is worried. His normally diligent and obedient assistant, Friday, has been hiding something from him.
