Gift of Story: a Faerie's Tale for Childish Grown-ups Carmen M. Clark

Charlotte's tidy and simple life gets turned on its side when she loses a poker game to Juniper, a faerie. The anti? Juniper gets to move in with Charlotte while Charlotte writes out a story Juniper tells her: A story of the faerie Queen Arum, of the Dark King, of a magic crystal and of the O'Malley family, who find themselves in the middle of a battle between good and evil. Charlotte's now chaotic life forces her to stretch her limits both socially and emotionally and she finds that maybe she needs a little excitement after all.
