After her two best friends marry a blood-sucking vampire and furry-faced werewolf, Corinne D'Alessandro is making a vow of her own: NO interspecies dating. But when her editor asks her to investigate "leprechaun" sightings, the sassy New York reporter finds herself on the trail of the hottest story of the year—and the sexiest man alive…

His name is Luc, and he's as gorgeous as any Prince Charming in any bedtime story. There's just one problem: He's not human, he's fae. A captain of the Fae Queen's Guard, Luc is on a dangerous mission—and he could use the help of a certain leprechaun-hunting reporter. But when their two worlds collide, the sparks begin to fly. If Corinne and Luc can't control their lust—and focus on the villains in this story—their faerie-tale romance won't end happily ever after…

Review

"Warren has made a name for herself in the world of paranormal romance. She expertly mixes werewolves, vampires, and faeries to create another winning novel in the Others series. Not Your Ordinary Faerie Tale showcases Warren's talents for creating consistent characters with strong voices and placing them in a fantastical world."

-- "RT Book Reviews (4 stars)"

From the Back Cover

New York Times bestselling author Christine Warren returns to the scintillating world of the Others―where even the strangest love stories start with "Once upon a hunk"…

After her two best friends marry a blood-sucking vampire and furry-faced werewolf, Corinne D'Alessandro is making a vow of her own: NO interspecies dating. But when her editor asks her to investigate "leprechaun" sightings, the sassy New York reporter finds herself on the trail of the hottest story of the year―and the sexiest man alive…

NOT YOUR ORDINARY FAERIE TALE

His name is Luc, and he's as gorgeous as any Prince Charming in any bedtime story. There's just one problem: He's not human, he's fae. A captain of the Fae Queen's Guard, Luc is on a dangerous mission―and he could use the help of a certain leprechaun-hunting reporter. But when their two worlds collide, the sparks begin to fly. If Corinne and Luc can't control their lust―and focus on the villains in this story―their faerie-tale romance won't end happily ever after…

"In this world…there's no shortage of sexy sizzle."

5.0 out of 5 stars A little Fantasy is a better 'pick me up' than a dull biography.

I discovered Christine Warren in an airport book shop two years ago and have been a fan ever since.As an author myself I appreciate a richl imaginative tale and Ms Warren certainly provides that. I like her wit, her hilarious one liners, her 'take' on the other species genre. My only qibble is... please can we have a reprint of "Fur for All"... I have been waiting too long for this.

I get a lot of books for review.. most are dull, some informative, a lot are so lost in 5/6 syllable wordage it takes a lot of coffee to get through them. So , for relaxation I read
Fantasy and what a rich world it is. Faerie is not the sweet Victorian world of Titania and Peter Pan. There are some nasty elements in that world and you'll come across them in this book. The concept of The Others is Ms Warrens on going love affair with fantasy.. long may she continue, I'm a devoted fan.. but PLEASE.. where is 'Fur for All' ?? Are you feeling low in spirits (?).. what to laugh, enjoy some sexy bits, and how to tell one Fae from another, kick off your shoes ladies, pour a glass of wine and enjoy this Faery Tale.

I was expecting the book to be lightly bent with scratches but it's better than I could have imagined. It's like I went to a bookstore and pulled the book from the shelf myself. Being someone who is very particular about her books and hesitant about buying things not new, this is a dream come true.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hit or Miss
Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2012

This book is another installment of the Other Series. I have found that some of the books are either hit or miss. This one was just okay for me. I was captured by the fact that the story involved Faes- I mean who can resist, right?

The hero, Luc, was a very likeable character. I liked the fact that he fell for the one thing he could not stand--a human. Said human he fell for- Corinne D'Alessandro. I, however, did not fall for her. Honestly, I did not care for her character in the past books. I thought I would like her more since she got her own story-NOT. The plot of the story was a little boring for me since it was about finding a character that the reader does not know anything about. Many of the previous characters are reintroduced in this book but it also causes a timeline issue for me. I read about one of the characters in an earlier book where she met her mate, however, in this story it has her single and no mention of her mate.

I have read all the books in this series with the exception of Black Magic Woman. With that being said I will probably continue to read future books in this series.

I love Christine Warren's books about the "Others" She has developed a magical series about shifters, fae, demons, vampires, and other creatures. The books always have the love story of a particular couple, and this one does not disappoint. Mystery, action and humor are a given. In fact I could not hardly put this book down. I would recommend this book to all my family and friends.

3.0 out of 5 stars Expensive for an ebook
Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2013

I bought the ebook, which was $7.99. Kind of expensive, most of the time the ebook is a little cheaper than the paperback. I've read most of this series now and while I've enjoyed the stories they are a little inconsistent from book to book and in most of the books the subplots are left unresolved. That said, I love the creativity behind the story and they are a quick read.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the original girls gets Fixed
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2013
Verified Purchase
Corrine is one of the original group of girls doing the Fantasy Fix thing. I don't know if this is a remake of the older erotica that Warren wrote (since I'm a relative newcomer to her worlds) but it read smoothly and I found Luc likable despite his arrogance.

My only gripe would be that there are places I feel like Warren doesn't read her own writing- this may be because they are written out of order so these discrepancies when trying to read in chronological order come up. I felt like somewhere in the series it was explained that fairy wine lengthened a human's life and living in fairy is what made the Fae live so long but then we have the drama again with each of the Fae/Human/Other matchings.

That's my only complaint though. Solid writing and world building.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Storyteller!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 7, 2015

Now I am a big Christine Warren fan, she is an amazing storyteller. Her characters are strong, capable, independent, funny and in the case of the men damn hot! You read one of Christine's books and you have to go out and get all the others. Now if you have never read one of her books before please note that this is re-write of 'fighting faer' and the 12th book in the others series. If you have ever read her books before then you know that Corinne is a report with multiple girl friends who have become involved with the supernatural world after they started 'fantasy fixes.

In this book Corinne has basically sworn to herself that she will never date outside her species. Well that's until she meets the sexy and irresistible Luc who is the Captain of Queen Mab's guard who is sent to the human realm to collect the waywards queen's nephew Seoc which as we know in all these sort of books does not go entirely to plan. From the first moment that Luc meets Corinne he feels something he has never felt before and comes to realise that she is his heartmate.

As always Christine manages to keep you hooked and begging for more. I blame her entirely for my lack of sleep after starting any one of her books.

Christine is an author to keep your eye one, that's for sure.

A lot of revies had said that Corrine was annoying and bitcy, but I liked her. She was smart, sassy and said what's on her mind.
Luc I liked a lot, until his friend came and I felt as if he suddenly changed from the man he'd been throughout the book and I would have been pissed had I been her.
I really enjoyed the book. It was funny, sweet and witty and I loved that we got to see the other couples again.
Deffinetly one of the best out of the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars lightweight romance with a touch of humour
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 21, 2013
Verified Purchase
I have only recently discovered the world of the others and have to say it delights me, i find the worldbuilding excellent, the pacing of the story is also very good and they are a welcome relief from the heavy drama of most paranormal romances. Each story stands alone and while characters do pop up from other books the plotlines do not crossover, so there are no i don't remember that moments which you sometimes get in a series. In "faerie tale" we meet luc and corrine, luc is the captain of the winter queens guard and is tasked with entering the human realm to retrieve the queens favourite nephew who has snuck away without permission, luc just wants to find the prince and get back to faerie, unfortunatly it's not so easy. Corrine is a reporter whose friends have all been falling in love with "others" werewolves/vampires etc, so she has become part of this secret world, when her editor puts her on a story which could expose her friends she ends up crossing paths with luc. Luc instantly recognises Corrine as his fated mate now he just has to convince Corrine while keeping her safe from whoever is messing with the border between earth and faerie.
