Customer Reviews

Wahoo! Return of the Romance Divas!

When I first picked up this book I thought, hmmm... this could be really good, or this could be one of those... yeeesh, wish I hadn't bothered books. I am glad to say, I have been very pleased with this book!Kenyon was with name that pulled me in, but I was glad for the introduction to the other authors. I will be looking for more books by the others as well, from now on. Definitely worth your time and money. Kind hearted romances with just enough thrill and tension to keep you turning the pages. Bravo!

Another 5 Star review

Sherrilyn Kenyon's story is the one that earns the 5 star review. Without it, the others are mediocre at best. Lovely as her story is, it left me a bit frustrated, wanting to know more. Several characters were introduced who seemed to need their own stories told. the hero's father told the heroine she should ask about how he and his wife met. She didn't, so now I'll never know. His older sister had disappeared, never to be heard from again. If this were a full book instead of a short story,I'd still be looking for a sequel. Maggie Shane's story was a disappointment because I usually enjoy her stories. This one wasn't bad, but nothing to get excited about. The other two authors I knew nothing about. Based on these stories, I won't be searching out more from them. Still, the book is worth buying just for the first story.

Very Good Book

Short stories are not one of my favorites. Somehow you feel they need just alittle more information. These four stories are somewhat unique in the fact that they don't leave you feeling empty, in fact the first one by Sherrilyn Kenyon only takes 68 pages. But the story is wonderful. The paranormal influence in each makes for a fantastic read. In the Sherrilyn Kenyon story Livia must loose her virginity or be wed to an 82 year old lech. How she overcomes her problems and finds the man of her dreams is touching and delightful. Maggie Shayne gives us a psychic who need someone to believe in her, The man of her dreams is a detective who finally fulfills her needs, but not before she saves him from a curse. Suzanne Forester gives us a heroine who really doesn't know who the man of her dreams is. But someone or fate has placed him in her path a few weeks before her wedding. Will her eyes be opened or not? It is amazing who gives fate a hand. Virginia Kantra tells us about a woman who lost her love 14 years ago. Now on a dark night she finds the man of her dreams is caught in the net of a fairy queen. But if he is the man of her dreams does that mean she is the woman of his dreams? A very entertaining read. I enjoyed it very much.

four exciting paranormal novellas

Sherrilyn Kenyon. After five years, Adron still regrets his actions and drowns his sorrow at the Golden Crona rejecting all company. Princess Livia sneaks out of her father's castle seeking a male to deflower her so she would be unfit to marry her sire's choice Clypper. She chooses Adron who surprises himself as she lights a fire inside him. Maggie Shayne. In Pinedale, bakery owner Megan has a vision of the missing woman so she calls Police Chief Skinner. When she is proven right he sends Detective Sam to investigate Megan. Suzanne Forster. In Blanchard's Department Store customer Lucy tries to buy an attaché case for her finicky fiancé Frederick, but someone else beats her to it. Afterward the stranger gives her the case as a wedding present. Not long afterward, she meets him again as Noah owner of Hightower Electric works on her building. When her appliances go batty she asks Noah to help her although she thinks she needs an electrical exorcist instead. Virginia Kantra. Wade County librarian Janet travels a remote area in a North Carolina forest when she runs into Rod. He looks just like her beloved Ross who vanished without a word, but shows no aging or physical changes from the man she last saw fourteen years ago. These four paranormal novellas share in common the mystic, terrific protagonists, and delightful magical romantic story lines that readers will have trouble putting down once a tale is started.

Short But Sweet!!!!

I have to admit I love short stories but sometimes I wish the authors could develop the characters better. Well these authors do just that. Each story is different with a twist that makes you keep reading and characters to fall in love with. I am not going to discuss these stories because I am sure some other reviewers will spoil them for you, but at least I'll know it wasn't me. Just remember I told you the stories are great, the romance wonderful, the sex terrific and the mysteries intriguing. When you finish the book you won't be able to stop thinking about what you just read.
