Falling for the Driade A Modern Fantasy Romance
From award-winning Lisa Kumar comes a contemporary fantasy romance of a fae shifter driade who hides in plain sight as a businessman and finds the human woman who is his destined mate. When Ashlee Trent meets handsome businessman Kaiden West on a plane to Australia, he eases her fears even as he sets her heart ablaze. After their plane crashes into the ocean and they wash ashore on an island in the South Pacific, danger and intrigue greet them. Too bad most of it seems related to the mystery of who—or just what—Kaiden is. Ashlee must now try to tease apart what is fact or fiction if they're ever to have a future together. Kaiden West, a fae driade-shifter, keeps dozens of secrets about his life and his people—like the truth of their very existence. The faerin hide away who and what they are so they can mesh seamlessly with humans, who'd only show them fear and prejudice if their true natures were revealed. When he meets the lovely but flustered Ashlee, he's drawn to her in a way that he's never experienced before. Though they've survived a plane crash, will the secrets surrounding him not only send their budding relationship into a nosedive but also end their lives? This novella contains adult content and is perfect for fans of Tasha Black, Sarah J. Maas, C.N. Crawford, and Alessa Thorn. This story was previously published as Crashing into You and was also in the anthology Crashing into Love. Kaiden and Ashlee later appear in the Mists of Eria series, so some of The Faerin characters crossover to the Mists series. This crossing-over starts in Bound to the Dark Elf, Book Three of the Mists of Eria series.
