The Duke and the Dryad Assistant Professor of History Elizabeth Rose

He's a Duke. She's an elemental of the earth.





The Duke:

Duke Odwolfe of Manterra is known to his friends as Wolfe, and to his enemis as Duke the Destroyer. When his prized bull goes missing, he finds that the Druids have stolen it and are about to sacrifice it in one of their pagan rituals. He rushes to the stone henge in the forest, but it is too late. Angry, he demands one of them come to his castle as his servant in exchange for the bull he lost.

The Drayd:

Rae-Nyst is a dryad - an elemental of the earth. She gets her power from the earth and can talk to the animals and control nature. However, fire is an element that can take her life. With the flame of the duke's torch in her face, she loses strength and has no choice but to go back to his castle with him as naught more than his servant.

Can a man who believes in nothing but war and destruction accept the exotic fae girl who honors all life instead of death? Or will she have to give up the ways of her nearly extinct kind in order to be with the man who ends up stealing her heart? Passion and fury rage in an epic adventure as two headstrong people find themselves faced with a dilemma that could either kill them or bring them closer together in the end.
