Prince of Air and Darkness started out as a serial freebie on Jenna Black's website. Hunter, the half-human son of the cruel Unseelie Queen, and practical website designer Kiera who always though her mother was crazy for thinking that the father that Kara never knew was the Seelie King. Hunter is sent to seduce Kara so as to produce a child with both Seelie and Unseelie blood to be used as a pawn in the Queen's plan to rule both Fae kingdoms. If Hunter balks in his mission, punishment and death await him and he's very much into self preservation - until he discovers that his glamour doesn't work on Kiera and he has to let down his guard and win his way into her bed without a supernatural edge.Prince of Air and Darkness was a nice bad boy goes good (or morally challenged Fae Prince goes good) story, although I did discover about 3/4ths of the way in that I must have read the story way back when it was free since the climax in the conflict of the story  and the resolution at the end were very familiar. Still I love stories where a less than white hat hero is redeemed and author Black does an especially good job with Hunter and I liked Kira too especially when she finally steps up and works to have a shot at a HEA near the end.So I enjoyed, Black's story so much that even though I've pretty much stuck to her adult stories (and have read pretty much all of them - love her new UF Descendants series by the way) I may just have to give her YA Fae ones a try.
