Buttercup Baby Ariel of the Fae had never seen a baby before. But then why would she have? Children do not exist in her realm. So the moment she finally enters the mortal world and spies a sleeping child, Ariel falls instantly in love - and decides she wants one. All she needs is a suitable mortal man... Rand Thayer meets all the criteria. He is handsome, healthy - and fertile. Perfect. Except for one small problem... When Ariel boldy marches up to him and asks him to impregnate her, he flat-out refuses! While Rand may be a good catch, he certainly is not an easy one. Now, Ariel will have to rethink her less-than-tactful tactics and consider the strange possibility of getting to know him first...
