Alchemy

Yvonna is trying to allow her beloved vampire the deep sleep that he needs and therefore seeks her own enjoyment in the library. Picking a romance novel to read, she settles in for a tale of love. Unbeknownst, she drifts off into sleep and dreams of a handsome pirate and the maiden he captures. Will her dream be one of love or danger? Can a pirate offer a maiden the passion that will last a lifetime?

Denyse M. Bridger has created a short story that instantly takes readers from one world to another. The witty word play between the pirate, LeRoux, and his maiden, Yvette, is written in a way to offers readers a smile and draw them into the story. The instant chemistry between LeRoux and Yvette adds more confusion and emotions to each character’s inner struggles with the situation. LeRoux’s realization that sometimes revenge is not as sweet as one first thinks is rewarding and enduring: a true romance. I enjoyed watching the story play out between LeRoux and Yvette as well as the small glimpse of Yvonna and her vampire. Alchemy is a touching little fantasy romance and has earned 3 Angels!
