Perfectly Charmed Pixie: Parsnip's Story

Perfect Pixie Series, Book 3

De: MJ May

Narrado por: Tor Thom, Cooper North

Youthful arrogance and misplaced trust left Parsnip's once beautiful aqua colors little more than shades of muted gray.

As a social pixie and host of a popular TV show, Parsnip desperately needs to fool everyone into believing he's that same, stunningly colorful creature. Warlock-made charms are all Parsnip needs to keep up the rouse. But the financial cost is high, and each activated charm steals more of his life force. Despite this, Parsnip is willing to pay any price. After all, who would want a faded pixie?

Everyone knows warlocks have no moral compass. But if that's true, why does Vander Kines turn down more commissions than he accepts? Barely able to keep a roof over his head, his shop open, his brownie ward fed, and beer in the fridge, Vander should jump at the large sums of money clients are willing to throw in his direction. But no amount of cash is worth the cost of his soul, and his only true concern is keeping the young brownie safe.

When a magical mishap with Parsnip's warlock sends the pixie through Vander's door, Vander refuses his request until he discovers Parsnip is his one and only. Now, he will go to any lengths to make Parsnip happy—even trading his own life force in place of Parsnip's.

Unfortunately, Parsnip isn't fooling everyone, and a witch with a vendetta is determined to expose his secret. She's willing to kill Vander and hand Parsnip over to his worst ogre nightmare to get what she wants.

True, unvarnished love is hard to find and sometimes even harder to accept. Having found it, Parsnip's willing to do anything to keep it safe… even if that means giving up his charmed life.

Perfectly Charmed Pixie contains beautiful pixies—no matter what their colors, an ornery yet clever brownie, a morally sound warlock, pixie dust-addicted ogres, good and bad witches, a questionably reformed siren, more honeysuckle mead, magic, and finding your perfect other half. It's the third book in the Perfect Pixie series but may be enjoyed as a standalone.

Good story. Good narration.

Parsnip has an interesting problem that made for equally interesting social commentary. I liked the core plots of this story more than the previous volumes of this series. However, I was more interested in the plot than the romance or steamy bits.

The narration was performed fairly well. The voices of some of the side characters felt a bit off, but this book seemed to have more than the first two, so it might have been a bit more challenging to develop distinctly different tones.

Overall, I enjoyed the book, and I have already started the next one.

Sweet and “Charming” Story

This was a sweet story of fated mates and magic. Parsnip and Vander are another set of mismatched mates who find their way to be together.

OMG! Cutest scene ever!!!

This edition of the all-5-star Perfect Pixie series deserves 100-stars for the purring, kneading, kitten hair clips!!

Love, absolutely love the book.That's what it should be called

Absolutely, love the story. It's just amazing. I love this series so far. Cannot wait for the next book. This one was really good, really, really good

mysig

Jag gillar serien, boken är bra skrivet och mysig att lyssna på. Förutsägbar i såsätt att den har ett bra slut, mentidugare karaktärer från serien är med och vi får följa dom viar. Lämnar en bra känsla Uppläsaren är bra

Compelling

This one was so compelling! They are always interesting and I love the characters but the storyline on this one had me blowing through it. The pacing was very well done as well. I love the way previous characters are incorporated

The voice actors are the same as the first two books in the series and did a great job as usual.

Parsnip's Story

I will admit to not liking either of the main characters at the start of the book, but they really grew on me. It was good to see Phil and Peaches again as well as the usual cast of characters. I would say this book was just as good as Perfectly Imperfect Pixie. I'm was hoping to see the end of Arie in this book, but no such luck. This HEA ending book was well paced and well written, it also includes some small setup at the end from the next book with Hellfire Rayburn as the main.

My favorite of the series...so far

This story had me on edge. Not just the suspense but that sexual tension and finally, the spice, OMG! I also loved how the story tied into addiction and trauma. And once again the epilogue has me invested in the next book.

squished

it's bit hard to follow at times or almost rushed the plot a bit

One sitting.

I devoured this. The performance was amazing and really brought the characters to life. I love the return of the characters from the previous installments too!
