About The Book
As a fae, Wyte knows better than to crush on a human. Anyway, he won’t look the man up after 20 years. Okay, at least he won’t fall in love…. Oops.
Twenty years ago, rabbit-shifter Wyte was trapped in the fae realm as punishment for taking a human lover. He didn’t even get a chance to say goodbye to the human, Tommy. Since then, he’s drifted through the years, telling himself he’s silly and rootless and not heartbroken at all. But when Wyte gets a chance to return to Tommy for a single night, he takes it. One perfect night, and he’ll be over it.
Wyte has just one tiny problem. Tommy thinks he’s dead. And Wyte turning up on his couch, having not aged a day, isn’t helping. Still, Wyte’s determined, and Tommy always was a sucker for his pout. Surely they can get back to how things always were. Only, Tommy isn’t the closeted, immature man of Wyte’s memories. Oh, he kisses with the same rough passion. But there’s silver in his hair and new warmth in his smile. And his kindness, the way he treats Wyte with indulgence and understanding, is more than Wyte can bear.
Because this is just one night. Come sunrise, the fae realm will be waiting. And Wyte will never see Tommy again.
White Rabbit, Silver Fox is a second-chance HFN romp with no cliffhangers. It features an indulgent former tough guy turned retired softie and a silly, playful rabbit fae with far more depth than he’s entirely comfortable with. There’s snark and dry humor out the ears, enough spice to make the eyes water, and reconciliation after too long apart. This is a standalone novella in the Fallen for a Fae series. Each book follows a different couple (though we do love cameos).
The Review
This is a very sweet novella about a pooka (a type of fae) named Wyte who yearns for the human he met twenty years before. He re-enters the human world, and of course his lover has aged.
The relationship is delightful and Wyte will do everything he can to continue it. There is a great deal of explicit sex – perhaps more than I would have liked in such a short tale.
I would have appreciated slightly more world-building and plot, but the writing is excellent and the characters are endearing. If you want a short, sexy read and you enjoy paranormal elements, this book is for you.
The Reviewer
I’ve been doing book reviews on my website, crossposted or linked to various social media, for a few years. I read a number of genres but I really enjoy all kinds of speculative fiction so thought I’d like to share my views with you. I love sci fi and other speculative fiction because of the way it can, at its best, make us see ourselves in a new light. Quite apart from the exciting stories, of course! I used to be an English teacher, and I’m a writer (fantasy) so I can be quite critical about style etc. but I hope I can also appreciate properly some books that don’t appeal to me personally but might be simply perfect for others. I have, obviously, read widely, and continue to do so.
