Gulietta — Darcy Abriel

This may be Kansas City, but Gulietta is certainly no Dorothy. Gulietta requires sex on an inhumanly frequent basis. It isn't until the Roman immortal shapeshifter, Quintus, enters her life, revealing the identity of her father, that suddenly she's whirled away to a magical land populated with satyrs, fairies, and shapeshifters. It seems her “problem” is not rooted in human sexual dysfunction after all. Gulietta finally discovers who and what her father is -- as well as what she is. And Quintus has made it clear he is the man who can provide exactly what she needs. That is, if her father's game plan doesn't get in the way...

Nothing is what it seems in the satyr Antius's domain. And a game that will change everything is about to begin. But Antius just may have underestimated his spirited satyress daughter. And he may find the tables turned by the headstrong female he thought to manipulate. Especially when Gulietta discovers the trick of lovers he'd tried to play on her.

Lives and freedoms hang in the balance. Gulietta is the hope for the future of the Sabine females in Antius's court. Will she also be the savior of Quintus, who also has a secret yet to be shared? Once all is revealed, will Gulietta forgive the subterfuge in order to claim the biggest prize in the game, in a world that offers more than she could have ever imagined, perhaps even including love?
