From Booklist:

Ariel, deposed queen of the Pillywiggins--the flower fairies--is sent by Oberon, the king of Faery, to check on his mortal baby grandson. Captivated by the infant, she decides that she must have one of her own. Rand, a handsome carpenter, is also visiting the child. He seems like the ideal candidate for setting her plan in motion but turns out to be quite difficult to seduce. Fortunately fairies have their own sensuous ways, which Fox describes in exquisite detail. Ariel finally gets him to bed, magics away his condom, and sets off all the electrical appliances in his house with her orgasm. Unable to return to the magical realm, Ariel stays with Rand, meets his extensive family, and discovers that her magic has gone seriously awry, resulting in a string of disasters, one involving vast quantities of green Jell-O! Fox's good-natured fantasy romance isn't all sweetness and light; it's spiked with suspense once a stalker discovers that Ariel weeps opals. Diana Tixier Herald
