Sedrick’s brother died, leaving him no chance to make amends, but his brother obviously trusted him enough to award him sole custody of his children, and it’s a gift that Sedrick will never forget. Which meant that, for the past seven years, he’s been alone with no pack. Sedrick pushed his brother away, angry that he’d chosen Arie Belview’s daughter as his wife. Fortunately, Dillon and Ruthie are like wilting flowers, blossoming in the face of Phil’s love. He never pushes his way into someone’s heart he just shows up, like sunlight, warming the chill recesses of lonely hearts, unaware of how much of himself he’s pouring into other people. Phil has an enormous heart, a good dose of common sense, and a natural light that just radiates from him. No one wants him in their home, not even for a brief moment, and so when faced with Sedrick’s small family and ramshackle house, Phil’s left to rely on his instincts. While he’s a home-and-hearth pixie, he’s never actually been able to explore his identity. The world building is just familiar enough to anyone who reads a lot of paranormal romances, but there are small touches that make everything stand out in a new and delightful way. May in this story is warm and wonderful and I would happily devour an entire series about the pixies, vampires, weres, fae lawyers, and murderous garden gnomes. This book seems to be a standalone, which is a criminal injustice. When Sedrick’s lawyer suggests he get a home-and-hearth pixie to look after his very unkempt and messy house in order to keep Belview from using it as an excuse to claim custody of the children, Sedrick goes looking.īut what pixie can keep up with a couple of were children? A six foot tall one, apparently. Arie Belview is known to be a power hungry, ruthless, and amoral monster, and Sedrick has no intention of letting him near either of the kids. Sedrick’s brother and sister-in-law are dead and all he has left are Dillon and Ruthie (7 and 5 years old, respectively), and their asshole grandfather is trying to take them away from him. Especially since he’s honestly terrible at being a bouncer. When a chance at a new job comes, serving as a housekeeper to a wolf shifter and his newly orphaned niece and nephew, Phil leaps at the chance. Instead, he’s wringing his hands and causing patrons to explode into sneezing attacks with his pixie dust flying everywhere. As a bouncer for a club, Phil’s expected to be intimidating. As a home-and-hearth pixie, all Phil wants is to find a house to live in and a family to call his own, but what family wants a person-sized pixie moving in rather than a properly dainty and delicate creature? So Phil is left with no family, no home, and doing his best to keep the one job he has, even if he hates it. Pixies can be vicious and Phil has been a giant target for the cruel comments, jokes, and laughter. Phil is over six feet tall, making him tall for a human, let alone a pixie, and it’s caused more than a few problems. Sure, he has the coloring - pink wings, pink lashes, magenta-tipped hair, and pink pixie dust - but what he doesn’t have is the traditional … er, build. Not really a con though, just a request for something extra special.Phil isn’t like other pixies. If Pixie could crack that, it would be amazing! We take each client job, slot it into a particular month for completion and then roll this week by week. We supplement our Pixie usage with a simple Google sheet which works as a rolling job planner. I have yet to find any PM software that does this. I'd love the ability to view jobs in terms of milestones. Pixie doesn't create too many tasks at the front end - each job has a set of tasks to follow, with checklists and embedded loom videos all possible. We have designed workflows to suit our clients and services and they sit nicely within jobs/tasks. When I found Pixie, I was immediately drawn to the user interface - it didn't overwhelm! The ability to build our own processes fairly easily within the app was crucial and Pixie hit the mark. For most of our business life in the past 11 years we used non-sector specific tools to manage tasks. I had used a number of other PM apps over the past few years - Senta, Accountancy Manager. Comments: A great piece of software, simple to use, quick to set up and get started, and a great support team in at the forefront.
