Agency of Extraordinary Mates #1
Finding Magic
Lust at first sight ...
At 6’ 6”, ebony skinned bodyguard Lester Ondáge radiates enough pure, unadulterated sex to drive a sane man crazy. The effect on a love-starved gay Elf is practically lethal. Lester and Tady could be the perfect match ... if they can bring their employers together.
There’s one small glitch ... Lorcan and Amanda
Lorcan, Crown Prince of the Northern Realm, has a problem. He doesn't want a wife, but if he doesn’t find one on his own, his mother’s going to choose one for him ... the last thing any self-respecting Dragon wants. He might be willing to change his mind, now that he’s found his “Chosen One” ... but the last thing Amanda, a successful but unhappy Hollywood star, wants is a man ... or a Dragon ... with attitude.
Lester and Tady have their work cut out for them, but on the magical island of Chimera, miracles can ... and do ... happen!

Enjoyable short read.
We don't really find out about the AGENCY part or who runs Chimera.
But it is apparently an island where mystical and magical beings can meet their mates. Only specific humans are invited to the island, usually when their mate or mates are there too, so maybe that is the Agency magic at work.
This story is about two couples at one time. Prince Lorcan and his valet/friend Tady and famous actress Amanda and her friend/bodyguard Lester.
Amanda and Lorcan get together after Lorcan stops acting like an entitled idiot and Tady and Lester connect from first eyesight.
I did love that Prince Lorcan and Tady are both Elve’s and Dragon Shifters. Lovely mix and different from traditional stories.
I have owned most of this series for many years. I stumbled across one book on Amazon Kindle and decided to reread them.
Pity they are no longer available to get.

Wow... what to say. Cute, really overly sweet instalove story. I really liked the world building of the island, though, and would read more about Chimera.
