Prince Savanne of Casmir, a dark, handsome, mysterious man, shows up on Val Kingsley's doorstep with an astonishing tale of abduction, danger, and thrones in a parallel world of fairy tales. Val's well-ordered life doesn't include strange characters except those in the novels he writes, and he doesn't believe this absurd tale of whimsy. Finally, after getting their differences straightened out, they can't deny their attraction to each other, and wind up in bed together. Later the prince finds the elusive doorway back to his world, and the two men begin the harrowing journey back to the land of make-believe where they engage in a battle against an evil queen and a mad magician. Will this bizarre adult fairy tale have a happily-ever-after ending, or will it break all the rules and go down in defeat from an evil that is too strong, a magic too powerful, and a love that is caught in between?
