This review is for Zane by Elaine Barris

This was my first book by this author that I read. Loved loved loved Zane and London. This book has so many facets to it. It will have you on the edge of your seat, it will have you laughing out loud and some at some point you'll be tearing up. You'll also want to have a fan and some ice water because Zane is that hot.

My review is for Alpha at Home by DJ Bryce:

This was short & sweet and so good. Or I should say, more sexy than sweet.

Max is the Bravo of the pack. Gillian is the Alpha’s Mate. So why is the pull between Max and Gillian so strong? I didn’t want to stop turning the pages so I could find out. The author did a great job at sucking me in and making me want more.

I really enjoyed this! It left me wanting the other characters’ stories. What a great start to the series!

The Dragon and the Vampire - AK MIchaels
Ronan is the director of the SEB. He joined shortly after its inception and rose quickly. Although now mostly a desk jockey, which he hates, he still likes to get out of the office and kick ass on occasion. He has some moves for a 400 year old plus Vampire!!! He is tasked with searching for and protecting a dragon, long thought extinct, by his sire, Josef.

Starr, said dragon, has been on the run for so long, she no longer trusts anyone and is forever on the watch for hunters. When she first encounters Ronan and his team she doesn't smell the stench of black magic on them but that doesn't mean she's going to trust the "bloodsucking leech". Their second encounter sows the seeds of trusts and when they finally meet face to face she feels a natural pull towards him.

No spoilers here but I loved the interplay and building relationship between them. There was no real insta-love but the slow burn of attraction. Ronans attitude, macho over a soft gooey centre is so sweet. I love that he swears in Irish Gaelic as it sets him apart from the umpteen other vampires floating around. Starr, is fiercely independent and used to taking care of herself. I don't know why but I hear her in my head with a New York or New Jersey accent, no idea why!!!! The sparks between Fang and Puff are ridiculously hot.

Zane - Elaine Barris

Zane has lived a long time as a vampire but even vampires get burned in the love department! He fell in love with Lindy through her writing and finally worked up a plan to meet her.

Lindy is still settling into her new life. Divorced because her husband is an ass and can't accept her writing. She also has to put up with a mother who doesn't support her either! She is knocked for six when Zane is her assistant at an adult convention and her life quickly spirals out of control.

She doesn't want to get sucked into a man's life again. She wants to be her own person and let her inner bad girl out! But finding out that the supernatural world is real and they are adoring fans...well that might be just too much for even Lindy to handle!

I loved who Zane never tore down Lindy. He built her up and was always there to be her strength when she needed it. He loved that she came out of her shell with him and they did things that she never did with her husband. London (aka Lindy) is sensationally naïve, warm, smart and sexy! She has real self-esteem issues which Zane puts to bed!

OMG the "visions" that he shares with Lindy could melt your kindle!

Immortal Desires A Collection of Paranormal Romance Novels by Various Artists
5 Stars!!!!!

This is just a sweet little collection of paranormal romances. I like the variety of authors and the variety of paranormal subjects. I found that each book complimented one another and just added the right zest to the collection. Each author has their own unique style and I found this collection to be quite refreshing.

My utmost favorite was Flirty Dancing by Jennifer Theriot. This is the fourth book in her Series and I can I just say I wasn't disappointed. I really like how the book seems to keep the flow of the series. I really felt the emotions that Kitty was going through. When your time is up your time is up but she definitely was gone too soon. I really like how the author ties different prospects of the afterlife and gives the slight comedy twist as well as keeping the romance in it. I really look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

I really enjoyed the rest of the collection but another absolute favorite was For Haven's Sake by Nicole
Garcia. I love wolf books and I find that each author brings their own unique flavor to them. This book was no exception. I really ‪like how he ends up helping with wild wolves. I like how the author sets up the story with Jax and how he ends up where he does. I found myself really routing for Haven and couldn't wait for the secrets to come out. I have to say that I was really glued to the pages to see how it would all turn out with Jax's and Haven. I found Jax's character to be very brave to follow what he wanted to do and not just bend to the packs rules and take on being the Alpha. There was just a perfect balance of drama entwined with romance. I will definitely be reading more from this author in the future.

A.K. Michaels: The Dragon and The Vampire

I have read many shifter books in my time, but I must admit this was my first Dragon shifter. Everything worked so well in this book and all the supernatural creatures blended perfect. I am ready to continue my journey..

Until Next Time... Tabi

Heather Hildenbrand: Alpha Undercover

Rebecca Rivard: Sea Dragon's Hunger

Exceptional

In true Rebecca fashion she has written another on the edge of your seat book. I just love these Bad Alpha dad books where you watch these fathers finally come to life for their children.

I love the journey in this story as you watch two old lovers trying to find their way back to themselves while protecting their cub. You can feel the emotions rolling on the page as they try to figure out their feelings.

This book brings in New characters and old ones...and if you have read her Fada series you learn some exciting news and I can't wait.

Monica La Porta: The Fifth Moon's Wolf


Edge of your seat Exciting

Once again I have put an excellent book on the back burning. I can't believe I had waited so long to start this series. From the moment I started reading the book I found it so hard to put it down. Ever page I was nervous to discover what was going to happen. It was so suspenseful, I am still feeling the butterflies in my stomach.

Valentine really should realize no matter how hard you try to push feelings they will always be there. But you cannot use the fear of losing something prevent you from being happy. Being happy for a time being, is better than being sad for the same time period.

If you have not started this series it is a must and you must bring tissues. You will cry and laugh and even hold your breath. So run out and get this book today.

What an amazing deal---with such a talented group of authors. While I have only read one story, I have the book pre-ordered and wanted to share this one review.

Flirty Dancing: A Spicy Romantic Comedy About the Afterlife (The Green Room Chronicles)

TO CHANGE AND GOOD FRIENDS

Once again, Jennifer Theriot writing as J. D. Frettier, has me laughing out loud with this afterlife story—and the Green Room. Whether you have read—or listened to one of the audiobooks of the Green Room Chronicles, the story will work well as a stand-alone. It will have characters from her two other stories in this series.

In Flirty Dancing, twenty-nine-year-old, Kitty Eatin, mother of two and wife to Sam will fall off a pole, hit her head, and die. Entering the Green Room, she will encounter several unique and colorful characters, Dee, Bonnie, Linda, and Peter---and then later Gilly and Milly.

“The Green Room is a holding place. Think of it as Purgatory.”

The story is full of humor, double entendre, and snarky comments. It will have her new-in-death friends helping her channel and visit Sam, and even help him with real-life issues facing her death and the children—and helping Sam with a birthday surprise!

“We can help you, but you can’t go back.”

The story is a great addition to the series and is a quick read. It was fun being back in the Green Room once again. With the help of friends, Kitty can visit Sam with channeling, see the kids, and make changes for the future in the Green Room.

This is a collection of short stories that are full of paranormal hotness by a group of great authors. There is something for everyone, you may just find your next favorite author. One of my favorite stories was Flirty Dancing. The author brought the story to life, it has humor and steam. Kitty finds herself in The Green Room after falling and smashing her head. But you will have to read this to find out what The Green Room is but you won’t regret picking up this anthology, a must read!

A snappy paranormal romance novella that will leave you craving more. Sweet & sultry moments with a bit of suspense seeping through. A sanctuary, werewolf shifters, humans, entangled together to create a beguiling tale.

An amazing set of fantastic paranormal stories brought together in one set. I’m loving them so far.

Conjuring darkness by Melanie James

This supernatural story is steeped in the Myths and magic from a biblical time involving witches, Demons and sacrifices.
Lexi and Ryan have a great connection creating a sexual chemistry that is both hot and tender. As the adventure to find Lexi's sister Kate unfolds, twists are revealed and dangers are faced, no spoilers but Lexi in the desert ! I didn't expect that and the ending leaves you reaching for the next book.


SEB: The Dragon and the Vampire by A.K Michaels

Ronan is a powerful vampire and head of the SEB, after getting reports of a group of hunters trying to capture a Dragon Shifter, thought to be the last known one in existence, Ronan and his team know they have to find and protect this rare supernatural being.
Starr has spent her life in hiding and having to fight for survival because of the teams of hunters sent to capture her so they can use her blood for dark magic.
Starr has never felt safe, until Ronan comes into her life.

This is a great story with a host of supernaturals, witches, vampires, wolves, a dragon! What more could you want?

Bad Alpha dads: Sea Dragon’s Hunger by Rebecca Rivard

This was an interesting read, rare water dragons feared by everyone and hunted by the fae, Nic may be used to this threat, there’s not much that can hurt an adult water dragon but when he finds out he has fathered a child and she’s being hunted there’s nothing he won’t do to protect her.
An enjoyable imaginative read with interesting characters.

Luci : romance with the devils daughter by Bella Roccaforte

You’d think being the devils daughter would have its perks right ? Nope, some serious daddy issues here lol.
Luci is a great character, sassy, Sexy and she takes the rebellious daughter to a whole new level.
Emotionally you can feel how torn she is between what she is and who she wants to be but one thing that’s never in doubt are the feelings between her and Simiel.
This is a real “love can conquer all” story especially when it comes to stopping daddy in his tracks!
I don’t know if this author has any plans to follow on with another book but I’d certainly like to read more of Luci.


Spell Hell by Nicole Hoffmann

I like the overall storyline to this, witches, Vampires and a spate of killings that need to be solved but at times it was confusing, a bit rushed. There’s lots of information to keep you interested and hooked to the story but I felt it could be pulled together a little tighter.
Sophie has an interesting lineage and her and Drake have an instant connection that makes it obvious they are meant to be together.
At one point one of the Vampires names became Dexter instead of Drake and there were a couple of spelling errors but nothing major. All in all an enjoyable read.

Zane by Elaine Barris

She doesn't know him but Zane knows London (aka Lindy Beck) and what he knows is that London is HIS.
She's an author of erotic vampire novels and Zane's about to introduce her to the reality of what she writes !
When London meets Zane for the first time, there's an undeniable attraction and Zane makes it clear from the beginning that she is his and so starts a sensual assault on her mind and body to lead her into accepting not just him but herself as well. She's the love he's been waiting for his whole life and he has no intention of letting her go !
Phew, keep them cold drinks to hand ladies, This is a scorching read to set your nights on fire.
Zane's gentle domination of London is incredibly erotic and done with such depth of emotion and love that you'll be sucked right into the pages feeling every intoxicating touch.
Vampires are know for Being hot and erotic but no one writes them quite like Elaine Barris, her skill with the written word creates vamps that you not only fall in love with, but lust after with an intensity that desperately leaves you panting for more !

A bargain collection of books by some great authors.



The Dragon and The Vampire 4* - AK Michaels

Ronan is a powerful vampire and Director of the Supernatural Enforcement Bureau is surprised to find out that dragons DO exist and that one is being hunted in his area. He has to find her and then protect her with everything he has before a group of black magic practising supernaturals catch her. Starr is a dragon and has spent her life hiding in order to say alive. When she meets Ronan she suddenly feels safe and it becomes apparent they are mates.

Great story with lots of drama and danger in the desperate fight to keep Starr safe. Mixed into that was a love story which certainly has a foundation in physical love too. Good start to the series. Well written and a pleasant read.

Sea Dragon's Hunger 4* - Rebecca Rivard

Cassidy O’Byrne is an Irish shifter and one hot summer she had fallen in love with visiting shifter Nic do Rio. However he had a big secret so ended up leaving her behind. However she then discovered she was pregnant and so she gives birth to her daughter Rianna in Ireland and was determined to bring her up alone. Three years later Cassidy is running with their daughter from the Fae so she heads for the only man she thinks can save them - Nic. He never thought he would see her again and is shocked to discover he has a child - now he'll do everything he can to keep Cassidy and Rianna safe and at the same time convince her to give him a second chance.

What a great story. It had all the necessary ingredients of a not shifter man, misunderstandings, hurt, danger and fighting for a new beginning. It was quite addictive as I got further into the story and the danger was building I was really rooting for Nic and Cassidy to be safe and find the happiness that so deserved. Well written it was really enjoyable and worth reading whether you are into the Fada Shapeshifters or Bad Alpha Dads.

The Fifth Moon's Wolf 4* - Monica La Porta

Valentine Lobo is the last werewolf in the Coral system and has a mate who has been genetically engineered to give him an heir. However when he marries Mirella Canalis the arranged marriage changes to be complementary souls that are joined with passion and love. However it starts a chain of events that could destroy their happiness when politics and jealousy intervene. Can they survive everything that is thrown at them?

I loved this story which was filled with emotions and passion as Valentine and Mirella met and started to form their relationship despite all of the reach and potential problems that they encountered. Well told and clear/easy to understand it was a charming introduction to the Fifth Moon's Tales and promises a lot of interesting stories going forward.

5 out of 5 stars

This is an anthology that includes the paranormal and romance. I read stories that have adventure, danger, and action. There is plenty of steam that will make the temperature in the room rise. I love reading anthologies as I am introduced to different writing styles and new authors. The stories I read include magic and all sorts of paranormal creatures. There are also stories that are thrilling and had me turning pages to find out what happens next. I enjoyed reading about the characters and there were scenes that will make you swoon. One of the stories that I really enjoyed is Flirty Dancing. I found my emotions going up and down when reading. It had touching moments and also times when I was smiling and laughing. The story has characters that are likable and a storyline that is entertaining. This is an anthology that you don’t want to miss out on.

Anthologies are the best. You get to "sample" a bunch of authors. You get to enjoy a bunch of different stories, all unique and special. It is a guilt free read because no one expects you to love every story, which would be nice, but lets face it we all have different likes. The best anthologies for me are those that benefit a great cause. 100% of the proceeds from this anthology goes to the American Cancer Society.

My favorite Story was Wet Kisses by Susan Griscom. Adrian is a dolphin shifter. Who knew there were dolphin shifters. Blew me out of the water. He is building an underwater hotel and hires a designer that is so much more than a female for an eye for design. Making the story even better was the conflict between Adrian and a werewolf.

Another story that was a joy to read was For Haven's Sake by Nicole Garcia. I am thinking I need to join Shifter Addicts Anonymous. But not until I check out more books by the authors that contributed to this anthology. I wolfed down this book. I devoured the stories. I need more more more.

I have read a few of the stories and just had to come leave a review ! Now I have to be honest and say that due to a couple of these authors I knew I had to buy and read this box set ! First up we have Conjuring Darkness by Melanie James . 5 stars , different but really enjoyed ! Next we have Artemis's Hunt by Lia Davis 5 stars , lies kept them apart but love wins ! Next up The Dragon and The Vampire by A. K. Michaels ( AWESOME STORY ! ) , 5 stars , he thought that dragons were not real and holy hotness does he learn differently !! Then to be honest I did bounce to Luci by Bella Roccaforte 5 stars , and now I need to read more lol . These are well written and strongly recommended to all !!

An anthology is a great way to experience new authors and if you are looking for a sneak peek at some really good paranormal romance then Immortal Desires is the way to go. Off the top of my head two stories stand out, Flirty Dancing and Artemis’s Hunt. Flirty Dancing tells the story of “Kitty” and her adventures in the Green Room. Artemis’s Hunt is steeped in Greek mythology and shows what happens when a goddess is wronged and the lengths, she must go to in order to fix her life.
The stories featured in this anthology are a pleasant surprise and bring with them hours of entertainment. If you like ghosts, vampires, mythology, etc. there is something for everyone. So, grab a drink and snacks, and settle in for some good reading.

This is a review for For Havens Sake

I’m not a huge paranormal reader, I usually go for the funny books in this genre, but this story made me forget I was reading about a wolf shifter. Nicole Garcia has done a fantastic job with this story, the only downfall? I WANT MORE!

REVIEW
This is a large box set of stories. I am leaving currently my review for the following stories although I am sure all the stories in this box set are fantastic.

Conjuring Darkness - Melanie James
This book has been updated since I first read it back in 2014. And wow the updates make it rock... This story gives you all the feels mystery, suspense, action, and the passion is sizzling hot... Lexi and Ryan **swoon**


The Dragon and The Vampire - AK Michaels
This book was fantastic. In this book we have Ronan he is the leader / Head of The Supernatural Enforcement Bureau. What is that you ask? Well in most countries we all have to have some sort of justice/police and this is the Paranormal equivalent.
Ronan is bewildered as a Dragon is being hunted by the dark magic witch that almost killed Peri his sire's mate. A dragon shifter wow is what he thinks. He has never seen one nor does he believe until he finally sees her. And feelings begin immediately. Starr has been on the run a very long time from the hunters they have killed her brother and have tried to capture her.
Ronan and his team do all they can to find Starr and help her understand they wish to help her not hurt her.
With the witch Esther’s help, they locate Starr.
Starr comes back to the Bureau with Ronan and Esther and things heat up between Starr and Ronan. They have figured out they are life mates. Well, things get right HOT between these two.
But they are not out of danger and Starr refuses to be left behind while Ronan and his teams go hunting the Hunters.
Can they save Starr? Can the team actually put an end to the hunters?


Wet Kisses - Susan Griscom
In this one, we get a dual shifter Adrian who is one very rich CEO.
Only one issue he can't control one of them.

Reese was hired as the new project manager at Waterscapes. She was amazed because she hasn't had a job before but is looking forward to it Until... Her first day on the job she is being sent for coffee ruins her new shoes when she is about knocked down by a bunch of teenagers then meets the most handsome man she has ever seen. Oh and the good part? It's her new boss .... didn't see that one coming did ya.

This is a sexy story, we also get a bit of action from an old friend of Adrian's. So grab your copy and read!

IMMORTAL DESIRES is a collection of paranormal romances written by a variety of authors. There are stories about vampires and shifters and dragons (seriously, what's not to love about dragons!!!) and more. The majority of the stories are full length novels and they are part of a series. Some are the first in the series and others are the third; each was a satisfactory read and I've added the series' to my TBR list. I was able to take my time with this set and I found that anytime I was in between books, i would grab another story from this collection.

I have a few that stood out above the rest (OMG Zane!!!) and all in all each was a great read. I honestly don't think I would be able to rank them in the order that I preferred them, so I'm just going to list the stories/authors in the way they are listed in the front of the book:

Conjuring Darkness (Darkness Series Book #1) By: Melanie James
Artemis’s Hunt (Sons of War Novella) By: Lia Davis
The Dragon and the Vampire (Supernatural Enforcement Bureau Series Book #1) By: A.K Michaels

5 Stars

This collection was completely awesome...Im not normally a major paranormal fan but this collection had some authors that I have read before and absolutely loved. By taking a chance on this I now have added to this list and have new authors that I must read more from. I must also mention that the fact that the proceeds from this box set benefit The American Cancer Society was the first reason I grabbed it and Im thankful I did because I sincerely enjoyed it.

Some of the stories I truly wish had been longer but many of them are part of a series so I can solve that by grabbing those. One of many of my favorites of the whole collection is Flirty Dancing by Jennifer Theriot...I've read the few before that story and if your curious at all read them, although I can see Flirty being read as a standalone..you would get much more enjoyment if you had all the back stories from the other characters in this story. It's a fun read yet also has those times that make you sad and find yourself feeling the feelings that Kitty was feeling and I loved that the author could do this.

Another of my favorites was On The Run by Casey Hagen...This one grabbed me in the first chapter and I was laughing out loud through most of it...I have already bookmarked this author's other books as her writing style was amazing.

I wish I could write full reviews of all of the stories but that would take me way too long so I will just stop here and say you must pick this collection, for many reasons, but one of the main is these are all 5 star authors and even though I'm not normally a paranormal fan...these stories had me totally wrapped.

Loved it!

Immortal Desires is a collection of Paranormal Romances written by various authors! There is something for EVERYONE! I love reading anthologies as they give you a glimpse into the universe that the writer has created and when you love in love with it then you have the rest of the books in the series to dive into!
I want to point out a few of my favourites – I absolutely love shifter stories so Alpha at Home by D.J. Bryce that is the opening to her Brothers of the Heart series and Alpha Undercover by Heather Hildebrand were the ones that I went after and if you are like me, you will get a total kick out of them and you will be reaching for the other stories in the series. And then I discovered For Heaven’s Sake by Nicole Garcia that took a bit of a different approach to werewolf shifters mixing with humans!
Spell Hell by N.L. Hoffmann was another one that anyone who loves a good story that involves witches, vampires and killings that need to be figured out! It is an enjoyable short read so you don’t have to wait too long to find out who when and why!
Vengeance Marked by S.J. Pierce was a short story that grabbed me from the first page, it gave me chills and I could not wait to get into finding out were the writer was going to take us and I tell you, that was one heck of a journey and it was not meant for the ones faint at heart!
Flirty Dancing by Jennifer Theriot writing as J.D. Frettier was another one that I still remember and knowing that it is part of a series means that there are couple of other books to pick up! I know she says you can read Flirty Dancing as a standalone but I have noticed over years that one really should start from the beginning as you will have the backstory then! It is amazing how such a short story runs a gamut of emotions ranging from sadness to love …

Immortal Desires by Melanie James, Lia Davis, A.K Michaels
4 Stars

This is a box set by several different authors writing paranormal stories. There are stories for everyone whether they love vampires, dragons, shifters or ghosts. All the men are hot, hot and hot! The stories are sexy and thrilling.

Conjuring Darkness by Melanie James

This story is about witches, sacrifices and demons from before biblical times. Kate is an archaeologist stuck in the desert and sends for her sister Lexi to bring her a coin from her house. What ensues is an adventure filled with love, danger and death. With twists and turns, you’ll be wondering what happens next.

For Haven’s Sake by Nicole Garcia

I loved this short novella! This is a romance between Haven and Ajax. Haven runs an animal sanctuary whose life changes for the better when Jax ( a werewolf) asks for a job. There is the added suspense and danger with someone chasing Jax. I fell in love with these two characters and would be thrilled to read more about them.

His Dream Mate by Madison Servier

This story is also about wolf shifters. Nova has the added power of being able to dream walk. Every night she feels the pull and enters someone’s dreams. She has done things that she is not proud of and now she is in danger. It’s up to Jax to protect her even if it’s from herself. Can she learn to trust him again after all his past transgressions?

I feel this anthology is well worth the time you’ll spend reading it. These are well written stories from very talented authors. Each one is unique and attention grabbing. I highly recommend this box set .

Immortal Desires by Various Authors was a super fun read that is stuff to the brims with a little bit of everything. Funny, hot, steamy, action and mythology, you can't go wrong with this hot anthology.

Wow, with so many quick reads, and talented authors, it wasn't that hard to get hooked, and fast. I had so much fun picking and choosing what story to read next. Now some are longer than others, but they don't follow any particular order, so you can just go on and choose what story you want to read and when.

There are a few stories that caught my eye, Artemis's Hunt by Lia Davies, His Dream Mate by Madison Sevier, and Flirty Dancing by Jennifer Theriot. All were by on the shorter side, but all packed quite a punch. I'm not going to get into too much detail, because I don't want to spoil anything. But both Artemis's Hunt and His Dream Mate were on the hotter, steamier side. Well, Artemis's Hunt was a little more tame, as it followed a bit of a journey, and reconnecting type plot line. His Dream Mate was, well... hot.. Flirty Dancing, was fun, light heart and quirky. It plays on the, what happens after death, and really hits home. It's more on they playful side of the steaminess, and gave a nice nod to Dirty Dancing at the end.

Overall this anthology was worth it, and it gets my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval. And as I said, with all those wonderful stories, you're bound to find something that tickles your fancy.

Happy Reading

The Immortal Desires Anthology includes stories by an amazing collaboration of authors, to include: Melanie James, Lia Davis, A.K Michaels, Madison Sevier, Heather Hildenbrand, Rebecca Rivard, Bella Roccaforte, Monica La Porta, Jennifer Theriot, Susan Griscom, N.L. Hoffmann, Nicole Garcia, S. J. Pierce, CJ Hartnett, Casey Hagen, D.J. Bryce, Cora A. Murray, Christina Escue, Elaine Barris. Some of my favorite paranormal themed stories in this collection are:

His Dream Mate by Madison Sevier; this story was fun, dramatic, entertaining and the characters were off the charts.

Flirty Dancing (The Green Room Chronicles Book #3) by Jennifer Theriot (J.D Frettier); this story was heartfelt with humor intertwined.

Each of the stories in this set are uniquely different, but come together perfectly within this series. I read several books from authors I had not previously had the pleasure to enjoy and look forward to reading more from them. Highly recommend the Immortal Desires anthology.

Aaahhh this is a great collection. I’m a big fan of the paranormal, and this is all about just that. The stories all vary, since all are from different authors but they are 5 star authors. The stories are well written. Many will keep you wanting to read from that series and find out what is next in either the book or other characters.

The first story will suck you in. The prologue does a good job on this. I enjoyed many of the stories because of the characters. I loved that a lot of the women were portrayed as tough, no bull crap attitudes. Yet when the alpha or mate came along they were still able to have a sweet side.

If you are looking for steamy scenes this set is amazing. Finally I enjoyed most the story Demons by C.J. Hartnett. This was a new for me, since I haven’t read much on demons. As soon as you start this you are hooked. I loved that the heroine was dangerous but also feeling very lonely. I loved that people feared her yet always told her it’s a weakness. This is by far my favorite in the whole set. This set is a must for all that are into the paranormals.

Immortal Desires Anthology
5 stars

The Immortal Desires Anthology was a wonderful collection of stories and I thoroughly enjoyed every one that I read. I loved that there were authors in the anthology that I had read previously and also some new to me authors! I love finding new authors to read. Each story brought something different to the collection and they were all excellently written. I was really excited to see Jennifer Theriot (JD Frettier) included in this set as I love her writing and Flirty Dancing was definitely one of my favourites from this collection. Her writing never fails to entertain me and I liked that it was linked to other books that I have read by her.
If you are a fan of paranormal stories then there is definitely something for you in this anthology – I thought that it was a wonderful collection of stories that I highly recommend!

This anthology is a collection of stories that all have to do with…immortals. Vampires, shifters, ghosts just to name a few. With so many great stories, this anthology is sure to have something for everyone.

I recommend the story by Jennifer Theriot called Flirty Dancing because it was a mix of utter sadness and far-fetched hilarity! No one really knows what happens to us after our deaths and Theriot gives us just one view with this easy fun read.

If you’re looking for a different kind of immortal…like say a wolf shifter? Check out the story by Nicole Garcia called For Haven’s Sake. After reading this story, the title takes on a different meaning. Great story but the ending just means there HAS to be more to come! Right?!
You can’t go wrong with this anthology!

Immortal Desires Anthology by Various Authors

5-stars

Immortal Desires Anthology is a compilation of stories featuring paranormal magical creatures. Romance is a common theme. There are several excellently written stories in this collection. I had a hard time picking a favorite but I definitely think that the Dragon And The Vampire was it. I could not stop reading these and I can definitely see myself rereading many of these. They all seemed to flow easily and kept my attention. Some were steamy while others were hilarious. I highly recommend this anthology!

These were alluring novels that keep you captivated into reading. I would reread them all over again just to go on the adventures that it takes me on. I would suggest these to anyone. Intriguing stories that capture you into reading them and not setting them down as much as possible. These novels are must reads and I am glad that I had the chance to read them.

Excellent.

While I don't often review anthologies, I think I might not have a choice. While the separate stories each have their own life, they come together and create something magical. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Pretty good

Most of these stories are good and actually have endings. I highly recommend this box set and the authors. There are some that I have to follow up on.
