Nightshade by Morgana de Winter - 3 stars
Gargoyle porn with a sprinkling of early domestic violence, complete with throwing your spouse over the ramparts. Not your typical fare for medieval fantasy romance, and not half bad either.

Deception's Calling by Marie Harte - 3 stars
Psychic police officers get frisky in the shower, then promptly experience sexual amnesia. Very different, pretty cool. Didn't like the succubus part, though.

Arrested Desires by Michelle M. Pillow - 2 stars
Rich house wife is evicted from home by hot cop, he takes her in and they have hawt sex. The only thing futuristic about this story is that wifey knows how to program the toaster and the cleaning bots, and can program her food processor to make cordon bleu, a dish apparently unheard of by the local police force. Cute story, nothing to write home about.

The Wolf of Cnoc Meadha by Sherrill Quinn - 1 star
Couldn't finish this at all.

Morpheus by Alicia Sparks - 2.5 stars
This short story has an ethereal, dreamy quality about it, very apropos for a story titled "Morpheus." However, the ending has a twist that just didn't ring true to me, and left me feeling clammy.
