title: Worlds Apart
author: Elsborg, Barbara
description: Love has never been so close -- or seemed so far away.
  
  I love you. Niall is in hiding, but not from the police. He's trapped between the world he longs for and a place he can't leave behind. Cursed to hold his tongue, unable to claim what he wants until it's given, he's allowed one year to capture his heart's desire. But speaking those three simple words, the most important words in his life, might very well kill him.
  
  I can't love you. As a private investigator, Taylor walks daily through the ashes of love burned out. He's witnessed the aftermath of love -- destroyed marriages and wrecked lives that leave behind nothing but bitter memories of betrayal. He's convinced that love will never plant a seed in his heart -- until Niall sparks a completely unexpected reaction in both mind and body.
  
  I want to love you. Roo has spent her entire life bouncing from relationship to relationship, offering her heart only to get it trampled on. When she finds herself out in the cold again, she discovers love can come from the most surprising of places. Her choices are simple. Do the right thing. Do the wrong thing. Do nothing. The wrong choice could be simply devastating…
  
  Warning: Beware faeries with killer tattoos and girls dressed as chickens -- broken hearts can follow… Or lots of love. And lots of sex -- three-way, two-way, every which way. But no chicken sex. Thank god.
