This book is what happens when you put 4 messy, horny bisexuals in an isolated manor and let them run wild.
Adam is on a quest in Scotland, his beloved grandfather just died and Adam wants to find Craigmar, the haunting land and manor from his grandpa's tales. He bring along his best friend (and screct love of his life) Nicola on a trip to Scotland, where they happen upon Finley, the hot but surly caretaker. A massive storm leaves them stranded in the grand, but old, home along with it's eccentric and odd heir, Eileen. Secretive and sexy shenanigans then being.
There's a lot of tension between the quartet as they become a bit of a polycule. Everyone has secrets, some more dark than others. Adam and Nicole get drawn into Finely and Eileen's world of kink and sex. My only real complaint is the vast majority of the sex in this story is m/f. I was a little disappointed there wasn't much m/m and f/f, but there are two more books to go!
This story is hot, twisted and fun. I love the fantasy twist with the fairies and the magical element. There were a lot of twists and surprises, I had a hard time putting this one down. And the end? I can't believe I have to wait for the next book in the series!
The characters all felt fleshed out and had their own goals and reasons. If you like dark, hot and twisted stories I think you'll really enjoy this one.
