A Fae’s Guide to Tactical Botany

Never go up against a botanist when tenure is on the line…

Mara has spent nearly five years in the high hills of the Sonoran Desert mourning, taking comfort in the creation of a glorious memorial garden of cacti and wildflowers. It’s perfect and peaceful…until a lime green Jeep arrives and its driver settles in for the long haul. He’s large, pale, and annoyingly attractive—enough reason to want him gone—but when he dares to take one of her flowers, she declares war.

Ethan has one goal: to achieve tenure. The botanical anomaly he spotted on recent satellite photos seems like the perfect field project to wow his dean, and also give him some time to process his recent “amicable” breakup. The last thing he expects is to encounter a strange, beautiful woman who can manipulate the earth and plants to keep him away from the desert Eden he needs to study. But he’s never been a quitter, and soon he’s laying siege to the unlikeliest fortress he could have imagined, using every tool he can muster to break through Mara’s defenses.

It’s a battle of wits and of bodies, and Ethan can’t help but surrender his heart to the mysterious green-eyed warrior princess. But his academic reputation is at stake, and if he doesn’t return with the data he needs, he can kiss tenure goodbye, and possibly his job. And as their fraught encounters start to steam up the windows of his Jeep, he realizes he must fight the ghost of her dead husband to claim the victory he craves.
