About the book
I let out a gasp, or at least tried to, as my mouth opened but no breath came in. His lips, glistening with moisture, parted as he blew his breath into my mouth. Under his weight, my lungs expanded. As I exhaled, he greedily sucked in my breath, transforming from cold marble to warm, living flesh.
Ever since she accepted a teaching position at the secluded Fairwick College in upstate New York, Callie McFay has been haunted by the same intensely erotic dream every night. A mysterious mist enters her room and transforms into a seductive stranger who pleasures her in ways she never thought possible. Perhaps these dreams are the aftermath of her bestseller "The Sex Lives of Demon Lovers." Callie's passion lies in the dark realms of fairy tales and Gothic literature, which is what led her to the folklore department at Fairwick and the enchanting Victorian house that seemed to be calling her name.
But Callie soon realizes that her dreams are more than just fantasies. She has an incubus, a demon lover, who will seduce her, bring her pleasure, and eventually drain her of life itself. To make matters worse, Callie discovers that she is not the only mythical creature at Fairwick. With witches and fairies preparing to rid the college of the demon, Callie faces a much harder task - banishing this supernatural lover from her heart.
