I started reading this book over the weekend and I really enjoyed the first story, Her Best Enemy by Maggie Shayne. I'd always thought of Ms. Shayne as somewhat of a fluffy-bunny, happily-ever-after type of romance writer, especially after the first story I read by her from the Out of this World anthology. Not in a bad way per se, just more in the way that romance novels bore me. In any case, Her Best Enemy was a wonderful haunted house story, and though parts of the stor...more

I just finished Maggie Shayne's short story, Her Best Enemy, and enjoyed it a lot. Yes, the plot is rushed and I didn't believe they could love each other that soon at the end, but it was a really fun story! I would have liked it better if Ms. Shayne had left them just starting out in their promising relationship and not dropping the L-bomb at the end - it felt too forced and cheesy. But as I said before, it was very fun, and an easy and fast read too! :)

Three paranormal romances with some suspense. Some do it better than others.
"Her Best Enemy" by Maggie Shayne
Kiley doesn't believe in anything she can't see, but it seems there is a ghost in her new house. Of course, her only hope lies with the psychic she's been trying to prove a fraud.
"Someone Else's Shadow" by Barbara Hambly

I picked this one up to check out the Charlaine Harris story in this collection of supernatural romance novellas (novellae?). Hers was decent, Hambly's was better - they both had dance elements and I liked Hambly's bellydancer in Manhattan. Sadly, Shayne's story was fairly lame. (November 10, 2006)

This is a collection of short stories. One of my favorites:
Her Best Enemy-Shayne, Maggie
This was a short story about a woman whos new house is haunted and how she gets rid of the ghosts. She also finds an unexpected alli. I would like to try another story by this author.

I bought this for the Charlaine Harris story, which I loved. Not much of a Maggie Shayne, but the Barbara Hambly story also turned out to be a gem.

Too much "romance" in this one for me. But the novellas by Charlaine Harris and Maggie Shayne are entertaining and well-written.

Hambly's was the only memorable one of the three. I hadn't read anything else by Shayne but this seemed pretty fluffy.

I read only Maggie Shane's story in this. It was well thought out and executed.
