Devon’s down on his luck—he’s lost his job and discovered his boyfriend is cheating on him. His neighbor, Johnny, is not only cute, he also has a big secret: he’s a leprechaun with a pot of gold… and the ability to grant wishes.
Can Devon wish his way out of the hole he’s found himself in? He’d like a new job, some revenge on his lying ex, and maybe even love. Johnny can give him what he wants, but it won’t come for free… or in the ways Devon expects. Can he trust a sexy leprechaun to help him make a new start and wish himself into the arms of the man of his dreams?

This was really good read; I was a little iffy about it in the beginning but I pushed through and ended up really liking where the story led to.
Devon was a sweet character who has kinda crappy taste in guys but that sort of turns out OK for him in the long run. I like his moments of sass and how he isn’t willing to back down from the things he believes in.
Johnny is kinda adorable if not a little manic. He’s a good friend to Devon when he moves into Johnny’s building. I love his cheerfulness and playful attitude, though both do get him into trouble.
I have to say I think this is the first time I have come across leprechauns. I’ve seen all sorts of shifters, and vampires, and fae but not leprechauns. I loved it!

ReplyDeleteI don't really celebrate St. Patrick's Day beyond maybe wearing something green, even though I have some Irish heritage.
ReplyDeleteI do not celebrate St. Patrick's Day.

ReplyDeleteI do enjoy shifter stories, because I like imagining what it would be like to do some of the things the animals do, like flying in particular.
ReplyDeleteI think I like small dogs better. more cuddly.
ReplyDeleteThere are too many places I'd like to visit to list here, it would be non-stop: Paris, Spain, Riviera, France, Italy, Greece, then other side Australia, Japan, ...
ReplyDeleteI like a good romantic mystery, but the romance better not take over the mystery, which needs to be a good one. Unfortunately romantic mysteries short the mystery, so I go with plain mysteries a lot, too.
