I looked up horrified to meet his cold blue eyes as they peered down at me, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing some of his beautifully white teeth. "I beg your forgiveness, My prince. I did not mean to offend you by accepting your brother's invitation to dance." I swallowed hard, trying to fight the lump of fear that had started to build in my throat, "I did not think I was allowed to decline." Prince Thomas let out a little chuckle, "Oh, I am not mad at you, Emma." I shivered when my name left his lips, "You have just piqued my interest, that is all."

She did not want to match with one of his kind; he did not want to match at all. Lillian Adams was set to inherit her father's dukedom- once she had made a suitable match, one that was not of the fae, and certainly not one that was AΓ«ghan Dranora- the unpredictable and darkly attractive male that was lingering around her family's estate. Having spent four long years in their world, she was no stranger to the cruelness of the fae. But why was it only in his presence that she felt calmer than she had in years, that made her stir with yearnings of desire she had never felt before? Knowing all that she did about him, she should resist the pull that she feels for him... AΓ«ghan had one purpose in this world- to find a way out of it. It was the only thing he lived for, the only thing guiding his every action. Until her. He could not allow himself to nurture the attraction he had for Lillian Adams, he couldn't allow anything, especially not a human woman that made his soul come alive, to come between him and his ultimate goal- to leave this world and return to his own. And Lillian was just that- a distraction, a hindrance. But the desire of his mind went against the desire of his heart as even the Gods urged their union. AΓ«ghan was not convinced he would be able to make the choice should the time arrive when he had to- her, or his world and people.

I've been in love with Maya Garcia since I saw her for the first time in seventh grade. I know it's cliche, and I know it sounds unrealistic, but I swear it's the truth. She was everything I wanted in a girl and more, and It didn't take more than three hours for me to figure that out. Maya was feisty, outspoken, confident, and she didn't change herself for anyone. She was undoubtedly herself, and it was intoxicating. She was perfect. But there was just one tiny thing getting in the way of having her all to myself: Maya Garcia just so happened to be my sister's best friend, which made her completely, one hundred percent off limits. What are the fucking odds, right? _____ Part of the Hidden Attraction series! You do NOT need to read the other books beforehand, however, I recommend it to avoid spoilers in the comments :) 1. My Brother's Best Friend 2. In Five Years 3. The Perfect Timing
