An outstanding anthology!
This anthology includes a select group of authors, including several of my personal favorites. The stories are highly entertaining. Even though some are part of a series, they stand well on their own, without confusion. The individual stories are quick, but very satisfying reads.
*Kissed by the Alien Mercenary by Mina Carter
First – I love the Warriors of Lathar series. Second – I’m always a sucker for the underdog. It’s no wonder that I adore this story!
Saal J’Qess is seriously undervalued here. Lizzie Kallson sees what others are missing. I see in Saal a kind, thoughtful male, a capable warrior, one who has experienced the seamier side of life. He’s able to divert an attack diplomatically, he’s creative, and knows herbal healing techniques. So versatile! Now, if only a certain class-conscious male would get out of the way. He and Lizzie are perfect together. Read and enjoy!
*Mate Abduction by Eve Langlais
Delightful reading!
I remember reading about the girls left with the Zonian warriors in “Dual Abduction.” Clarabelle is ready to find a boyfriend, but no one purple or otherwise ‘alien,’ please. I think it’s time for ‘Belle to lose a few prejudices. Thyos is quite a fascinating character. Considering he, also, is stuck with a supposed fated mate unlike any other he’s ever seen, he takes it well (after some time). He is certainly patient and honorable (to a fault).
Full of thrilling moments, humor, sass and back-chat, this is a great read!
*Krash by Cara Bristol
True love!
Oh, I love when ‘doubters’ see the light! When all you can see is betrayal, it is not easy to recognize the real thing. This is actually pretty ‘fast-burn,’ although there are some hold ups along the way. Krash and Cyan are so good together. Krash is a sweetheart, and Cyan is a joy to watch as she realizes how different Krash is from her previous ‘romantic’ encounters. A short, sweet read!
*Chance of a Lifetime by Susan Hayes
I love stories from The Drift!
There’s a new girl in town! Erik O’Neill is keeping his eyes on this attractive woman. The woman, Chance, stays to herself, mostly. She has highly unusual abilities, and does her best to keep that a secret. This is an intriguing story. Both of them are private about many aspects of their lives. I have questions, still. I love the interactions with familiar folks around the Nova Club. Hearing from them is welcome. They have a lot of fun at Erik’s expense, but he dishes it right back at them! Erik doesn’t hesitate when Chance is in trouble; he just heads out to protect her as best he can. A splendid romance, leaving me craving more of The Drift, and these people.
*Ashland 297 by Donna McDonald
Fascinating story!
Featuring famed astronaut Diana Daniels and her search for her long lost husband, Ashland. Dia is a talented pilot, a devoted wife, and has an inner strength that has kept her going. She’s about to find out who her true friends are.
I love this story – it’s short, but very satisfying. The author hints that this may become a spinoff series. I certainly hope so! I need more
*Betraying Ko’Ran by J. Thompson
Love at first sight.
I am intrigued by the storyline. Altorians are being decimated – by whom? Bethany, still devastated by the loss of her husband, encounters a crew whose people she believes are responsible for that terrible day. So, why would she give them aid? You must read to find out. Excellent plot, admirable characters. I really enjoyed these folks. The story is, however, in need of editing/proofreading. It becomes very distracting.
Heroes need mor depth
Some of the stories were real good
