A Wolf by Any Other Name
Part of the Luck of the Irish series.
Three men and a leprechaun? When Dermot, Greg and Zev meet at the wedding of a past
lover, a little green guy offers each man a golden opportunity to possess his greatest desire.
Unfortunately, figuring out what that greatest desire amounts to isn’t as easy as it sounds.
When computer nerd Zevulan Cable awakens in a dungeon, bare-ass naked,
chained to a bed as gorgeous, identical-twin witches have their sensual way with his
body, he figures he’s found his greatest desire, just as the leprechaun promised. Then
why is the tiny, sexless woodsprite the one who captures his heart? And how can he
explain his growing need to howl at the moon?

Prologue
Ireland, present day.
“This isn’t how I envisioned present-day Ireland,” said the nerd at the table.
Dermot Stone wished he would quit talking. Every moment Dermot had to spend
responding was one less moment available for the task of getting shit-faced drunk.
“So what were you envisioning?” asked the other guy, Greg something. A lawyer.
The nerd shrugged and took another drink of Guinness. “I don’t know. More
people wearing green, I guess. A few more redheaded wee Irish lasses. Where are the
pet leprechauns?”
Dermot really needed to switch tables. He was far from sober himself, but at least
alcohol didn’t turn him into a babbling idiot. He sighed and looked around the
wedding reception. A huge number of people, probably hundreds, having themselves a
grand old time and here he was sitting at a table with a lawyer and an intoxicated nerd.
Wonderful.
Greg the Lawyer took a sip from his beer, grimacing a bit. The guy clearly wasn’t a
drinker. “So, Zev, are you here for the bride or groom?” he asked the nerd.
“The bride. Tami’s an ex-girlfriend.”
That caught Dermot’s attention. “Really?”
“Yeah. We were together for about a month when she was living in the states.”
“She was my nanny,” said Dermot. “I lost my virginity to her.”
“Your nanny ?” asked Greg. “How old are you?”
“Never mind,” said Dermot, immediately wishing he’d kept his mouth shut. “It’s a
long story.”
