Too Many Fairy Princes — Alex Beecroft

Happily ever after doesn't always come quietly. Sometimes it puts up a fight.

Kjartan's family is royally dysfunctional. He'd prefer to ignore the lot of them, but can't since his father has set him and his brothers on a quest to win a throne Kjartan doesn't even want. Worse, his younger brother resorts to murder and forces Kjartan to teleport--without looking where he's going. Art gallery worker Joel Wilson's day has gone from hopeless, to hopeful, then straight to hell. One minute he's sure his boss has found a way to save the floundering business, the next he's scrambling to sell everything to pay off a loan shark. If anyone needs a fairy godmother right now, it's Joel. What he gets is a fugitive elven prince in a trash bin. They'll both have to make the best of it, because fairy tales run roughshod over reluctant heroes. Particularly when there aren't enough happy endings to go around.

Warning: This sweet romance contains a starving artist trying to scrape together a living, extreme sibling rivalry, royalty behaving outrageously, and elves being unreasonably beautiful, grotesque or deadly.
