Mortal Love

What if you risked everything to save your life... just to wake up inside the life you always dreamed of?

Delilah, a 32 year old woman from our world goes under for experimental brain surgery-and opens her eyes in Nevaehun, the realm of the Fae. No doctors. No monitors. No proof she even made it through.

Is this the afterlife... or a dream brought on by anesthesia?

As she fights to understand Nevaehun's rules, power stirs in her blood-dangerous, unfamiliar-and so does a hunger she's never allowed herself to want. It draws the attention of a High Lord of Flame whose pull feels like fate... and betrayal.

Because in the mortal realm, she left behind a husband she still loves.

Now Delilah must choose which version of herself she'll allow to exist... and which one she'll leave behind.
