Can a feyrie earn the love of a human in order that she too can be human?  Nixi loves Theo Boldt with all her heart ,  but the object of his attentions is his pet fox Nixxi.

When Nixi returns from her feyrie training in the Mediterranean she become acutely aware of Theo’s feelings for his pet fox, who is dying.  As she cannot allow him to endure pain, she petitions the feyries to become the fox , so Theo will not suffer, even though it means she is giving up her chance to become a woman…his woman.
