Sherrilyn Kenyon's short story was a first for me and I loved it (4 1/2). Maggie Shayne's story was also very good(4). Suzanne Forster's was good, I just didn't see how it belonged in the anthology as the other three were all paranormal(3 1/2). Virginia Kantra's book was not my cup of tea, but it wasn't bad either(3). Overall I gave the book 3 1/2 stars, that's about the averagerating of all four stories.

This book was so good I couldn't put it down,I think I read it in less than one day. I wish some of the stories had been a little longer but I can't complain. Sherrilyn Kenyon and Maggie Shayne are 2 of my favorite authors so will probably look for more books like this one. Really good read.

I enjoyed this book. Fire and Ice by S. Kenyon is a spinoff novella from her League book Born of Night about Adron,son of Nykyrian and Kira from Born of Night who is drowning his sorrows in a bar when Livia chooses him to take her virginity in order to avoid marriage to an old lecher. In order to save her from her furious father the morning after, he declares her his wife. In Shocking Lucy by Suzanne Forster Lucy's fiance of 4 years sets her up to be seduced by an old friend from college to prove that she really doesn't love him--she just wants to be married to a 'safe, respectable man'. Noah and Lucy get it on and when she finds out about the scheme, well.... Noah is an electrician and he wins her back by broadcasting his love on a billboard. A really sweet love story.
In Daydream Believer by Maggie Shayne Megan who is psychic must convince Sam a detective working a case of a serial killer that she is for real. Another good story. I wasn't too impressed with V. Kantra's story about Ross and Janet who had a history before Ross was captured by the Sidhe and held as a sex slave for 15 years. Janet saves Ross and breaks the curse. This story was just not my thing.

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.

The first story is related to Sherrilyn Kenyon's first League book Born of Night. The hero is Nykarian's son...

I love anthologies because they expose you to new authors. I enjoyed this anthology very much because it is paranormal romance - no vamps or werewolves though. Kenyon's story is more of an alternate universe type story along the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Shayne's story is of a woman who has visions and meets with a cop to solve a murder mystery. Forster's story has no supernatural aspects at all and I did not like this one as much as the others. Kantra's story has faerie elements and a long lost love. I really enjoyed all the stories with the exception of Forster's, hers was just okay.

The third story is not really a fantasy story, but is very good all the same.
