Fairy in the Flesh starts out a bit slow, but don’t let that discourage you. It doesn’t take long before Maya travels back in time to 1903 and meets Andre. There was something totally hot about her waking up naked in an artist’s bed who’d she’d only ever dreamed about. Things got off to a slightly rough start since she was naturally a bit shocked at her whereabouts, but she quickly adapted and things got steamy quick. I’m not usually a fan of the H/h falling for each other quickly, yet somehow the author made it work. The chemistry between them as he had her posing for his paintings was off the charts. I loved the idea of using a painter as a hero and thought it was a nice change from the male love interests I usually read about. The story was also bittersweet because you just knew Maya couldn’t stay in the past with him and wondered how things would work out. Let’s just say they do, but not without some difficulties.This isn’t a very long book. It only took me a few hours to read, but it was a fulfilling story. This is one of those nice, quick romances you can squeeze in on one night when you don’t want to commit to anything that’s very long. My only complaint is I wish the ending could have been extended a bit more with more detail in how Andre and Maya get their happy ending. The way it went is still well worth reading the story, though, and does close up nicely. If you like time-travel romance with a bit of magic thrown in, this is a great novel to try.Note- I received a free ecopy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.
