Owen Foster is in love, well, at least lust at first sight. The blonde-haired goddess standing in his backyard is every man's fantasy come true; until she opens her mouth and accuses him of being a crappy elf. He can overlook that misguided belief, but when her youngest sister shows up and acts like they're together, he'll have to go to desperate lengths to prove they aren't.

A meddling mother dabbling with faerie magic, the worst storm they've ever seen, along with a bear and a fawn -- will these two be able to turn their instant attraction into a love of a lifetime?
