The combination of magic, fantasy and love with the colliding of two different worlds makes for a great read. The authors imaginative descriptions and use of language were a delight to read. Hated to see the book come to an end.

This the story of the forbidden love between Conn, a son of man, and Sira, a princess from a magical land. Magic, fantasy, love and honor make this book an enchanting read. I can't wait to read KISSED BY STARLIGHT, the story of Blaic, a foreigner to Sira's realm but of her kind, who was turned into a statue and cursed by Sira's father when he aided Conn and Sira. FLOWERS BY MOONLIGHT is a great read for anyone with an imagination and a romantic heart. You'll enjoy it. Trust me!

In 1141 England, Lord Robert of Hamdry informs his eldest son Conn that he has arranged for the lad to stay at the Closebeck Monastery. The family inheritance is to go to Ross, his younger brother, because Conn is blind. Conn refuses and rides off on horse so he can kill himself.

On the day of the festival, Sira finds a Son of Man (Conn) lying on the nearby ground. When he awakens, she asks him to toss his steel dagger away so that she can help him find his way home. Reluctantly, he heeds her plea and she miraculously returns the bewildered knight to his servant. Sira's father King Boadach is irate that his daughter helped his most vile enemy, a human, escape. However, both Conn and Sira felt the forbidden attraction and Sira cannot resist seeing him again even though she knows that is prohibited by the law of the People. As the duo falls in love, it will take a miracle much greater than restoring his vision for this pair to find lasting happiness on either plane.

FLOWERS BY MOONLIGHT is a fantastic blending of magic within a Medieval romance. The beleaguered Conn is a wonderful hero because of his struggles to contend with difficulties in a world that loathes handicaps. Sira is a beautiful, adult rendition of Ariel, the little Mermaid, who gives up eternity for love. Readers will hope that Lynn Bailey will return to her magical universe by providing the tale of the stone encased Blaic.

I thoroughly enjoyed this enchanting novel. Sira is a delightful character, and if I were a man, I'd would've fallen in love with her, too. I'm thrilled to see that Ms. Bailey has written a sequel to this story, "Kissed by Starlight." I can't wait to read it.

The idea of forbidden love is exciting.In this story Sira who is a faerie falls inlove and marries Conn a mortal against her father Boadach king of the faeries. This book is full of fantasy,love and sacrifice, wonderful read.
