Navy Seal Logan McLean hunts the vampires who murdered his wife. Virginia Hart is a sexy vampire searching for her lost soul mate only to find him in a mind determined to kill her. In KISSING THE HUNTER, she must convince him all vampires aren't created equally -- hunting her won't save his soul, only loving her will.

Jade Lawless - The Woman of His Dreams
From the day artist Gray Avonaco moves in next door, Joanna Morgan is plagued by provocative dreams.

A friend loaned me this book, and I'm so glad she did. This was Volume 7 in Red Sage Publishing, Inc.'s anthologies of sensual fiction. I do think these should be called erotic instead of sensual reads, so be forewarned if you prefer not to read erotic romance.
The stories were short but well-written and captured my attention right away. They were steamy, without being raw and sexy without being crude. There were two historicals and two paranormals. My favorite of the two historicals was Amelia's Innocence by Julia Welles. I like the way the author turned the tables on Quentin Hawke. Despite all his worldly experience, Amelia had him ensnared almost from the beginning. Despite her virginity, she ended up teaching him a thing or two about love and sexuality. Amelia was no fool, either. Even though her father was abusive and she lived a sheltered life, Ms. Welles gave her depth (quite a feat in such a short read) by showing her to be intelligent and using that intelligence to assist Hawke with his business affairs.
My favorite of the paranormals was Kissing the Hunter by Angela Knight. I don't read many paranormals, but this one had me thinking I should read them more often. It was interesting because Logan McLean was bound and determined to kill Virginia Hart, a vampire. Little did he know, they had quite a history between them! I don't want to give away too much, but the flash back scenes were eye-opening and helped me to get caught up in the story. The steamy love scenes between the couple were a bonus.

Amelia's Innocence. I thought the story very sensual and erotic, the characters believable, but I didn't feel the 'spark' that should have been between Hawke and Amelia for them to fall for each other as they did. Still, it was good.
The Woman of His Dreams. I liked this one. You could feel the pull between the characters. Wild, erotic, I loved how the scenes played out, how the past and the present mixed to bring them together. Wow, those are some dreams I wouldn't mind having!
Surrender. Oh, what I wouldn't do for a 'brute' like that. Demanding and unrelenting, he deliberately pushes her, and I liked how she charged back. Despite the difference in ages, I thought they were made for each other, as much as love as testing their patience.
Kissing the Hunter. Oh, lordy, does Angela Knight know how to write a story! There's no slowing down! Her characters truly compliment each other, both physically strong and strong-willed. The battle between the two and the wars within themselves at punch to the story, and the sensually erotic scenes leave you as breathless as the characters themselves. I pray she never stops writing - it would be a great loss.

Four really good erotic romances!
I like that the Secrets format allows for longer stories than that of other anthologies like Ellora's Cave. We have enough pages to get to know the characters and to watch them grow emotionally. In this volume, all four stories satisfied my intellect as well as my prurient interests. I liked the plots, the settings, and the relationships shown. The only reason this collection didn't get my top vote is that I still prefer the full-length novel format over a novella.
I really want to go back to other work by Angela Knight around 2001 to see if there are other stories she wrote in this setting.
On to the keeper shelf with this one, and I'll be looking for other volumes in the series.

As I wrote on my first blog, I tend to grade up when in uncharted territory, and I'd just begun to venture into erotic romance when I read this collection of short stories.
