June Recipe

 

This delicious recipe I discovered when I was trekking in Nepal.  Jonathon and I loved to try new foods and in this beautiful country we nibbled on some fantastic foods including yak milk cheese (yummy) and sipped on the best rum punch I've ever tasted.  But my favorite dish overall was this surprising favorite.  I've eaten it in many other restaurants, but their unique way of doing it made it a trip favorite.  I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

An Ancient Prophecy Comes to Life in an Erotic Tale of Forbidden Love.

   

   ......The Mylari Chronicles:            Eyes of Fire

Available Now

 

An ancient prophecy comes to life in the erotic tale of the forbidden love between an elven prince and a kidnapped human woman.

Talia’s visit home turns upside down when dark, frightening creatures appear seemingly from nowhere and transport her to another world. The faerie world. In this mystical paradise, she finds her life and honor threatened for reasons she does not understand.

When Calion Sáralondë, Prince of the Calen’taur Elves, rescues the human female from an orcan stronghold, his attraction to her is immediate and strong. And the feeling is mutual. Though their love is sardai—taboo—Calion can’t bring himself to send her back to her world. Her presence sets a fire in his soul only mating with her can tame.

And their passion could be the answer to an ancient prophecy that saves his world.
