From Amazon:
"Merry Gentry is not your average private investigator. Half human, half faerie, she's caught in a struggle that threatens not only her life, but the lives of those she desires and holds dear. Her very existence and her rightful place on the throne of Faerie have long depended on her ability to produce an heir - and now, after many failed attempts, the services of her royal guards have found her pregnant...It is a triumphant moment, but revelation follows revelation: for Merry carries two babies, and she knows thay they have more than one father...And of course, there are those of her own flesh and blood who want Merry dead, but she is a fighter and wields a wild magic. And this is her world, where the magical and the mortal intertwine, where folklore, fantasy and erotically charged adventure collide..."

So, more of the usual. I still like Merry Gentry, but there isn't anything really surprising happening. There is just more of the same, meandering storyline of others wanting to kill her, of her struggle against her aunt and cousin and uncle, of her feelings towards her lovers and who she loves the most and how they feel about it and so on and so forth. If you are a Merry Gentry fan, go for it. But you won't miss anything earth shattering if you don't...

I am not absolutely sure, but I think I left this book in my room at the Holiday Inn in Bangkok. Happy travels!
