For more than a thousand years Samuella Dís has been a fairy godmother. The fairy title is ironic, since she's a dís—an ancient society of all-female, winged, immortal avengers who paint their toenails with reckless abandon and have difficulties with real swearwords. However, something's wrong with Sam's latest assignment. Her newest orphan is a six-foot-three soldier, who's indubitably handsome, and a flausching man. Not a boy at all, but a flinging flanging man!Luke Anderson is home barely a week when he loses his parents in a drunk driving accident. Already plagued by nightmares from his tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, he's not sure how much more he can take. And maybe he's gone a bit crazy because he can't keep his eyes off one spunky strawberry blonde at his parents' funeral—inappropriate, right? But she offers so much comfort in those huge amber eyes of hers, and, hey, it's not like the world would end if he hit on the woman.Since the dís are a dwindling species, The Norns, Sam's bosses, are trying to matchmake Sam and Luke. Only, the last time they played cupids England almost collapsed. Plus, there's the issue of human men going insane once they've had sex with a dís. And Sam could die from a broken heart. Oh, and there's the little matter of when a dís gets upset she can cause apocalyptic events. But it might be worth it for love. Then again, the Norns have been stalking Oprah lately, and there's no guessing if they're merely insane or certifiably brilliant.
