A Stroke of Midnight (Meredith Gentry, Book 4) Review
This novel picks up where Seduced by Moonlight left off. Merry is still in faerie starting off with a press conference in the UnSeelie court. There is a spell to keep the reporters from wandering away from the conference. Somehow a photographer wandered away and got himself murdered along with a pastry chef. This murder brings up a lot of emotion from the past for Merry. Her father's murderer was never caught, but she has a chance to catch this murderer. For the first time ever police are to enter faerie to help with the murder. There are also spells against Merry and Queen Andais that are almost catastrophic. Merry is the heir to the throne, all she has to do is get pregnant. The queen is so one track minded about this, she keeps throwing more of her royal guards to get the job done. During the murder investigation the Queens Head guard Mistral comes to greet Merry. As a vessel for Danu, Merry and Mistral bring back magic that has long been lost to faerie. Other Royal guards also bring back magic and faerie back to life through Merry and Danu. I adore Mistral! Who's your favorite guard??
This book is great, definitely one of my favorites! It is very fast paced, lots of action, steamy erotica, and deep character development. I admire the research done to tell the tales of gods and goddesses, and all the faerie history. Highly recommended series and novel!

A Stroke of Midnight (Meredith Gentry, Book 4) Overview
I am Meredith Gentry, P.I., solving cases in Los Angeles, far from the peril and deception of my real home–because I am also Princess Meredith, heir to the darkest throne faerie has to offer. The Unseelie Court infuses me with its power. But at what price does such magic come? How much of my human side will I have to give up, and how much of the sinister side of faerie will I have to embrace? To sit on a throne that has ruled through bloodshed and violence for centuries, I might have to become that which I dread the most.
Enemies watch my every move. My cousin Cel strives to have me killed even now from his prison cell. But not all the assassination attempts are his. Some Unseelie nobles have waited centuries for my aunt Andais, Queen of Air and Darkness, to become weak enough that she might be toppled from her throne. Enemies unforeseen move against us–enemies who would murder the least among us.
The threat will drive us to allow human police into faerie for the first time in our history. I need my allies now more than ever, especially since fate will lead me into the arm of Mistral, Master of Storms, the queen’s new captain of her guard. Our passion will reawaken powers long forgotten among the warriors of the sidhe. Pain and pleasure await me–and danger, as well, for some at that court seek only death.
I will find new joys with the butterfly-winged demi-fey. My guards and I will show all of faerie that violence and sex are as popular among the sidhe as they are among the lesser fey of our court. The Darkness will weep, and Frost will comfort him. The gentlest of my guards will find new strength and break my heart. Passions undreamed of await us–and my enemies gather, for the future of both courts of faerie begins to unravel.
