An All Night Man
An All Night Man is a sensual anthology about some very sexy men and the women in their lives. On entry is recommended with qualifications, another is just plain recommended, and one will knock your socks off.
Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down
Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down is a romantica anthology about people living out their fantasies with the man or woman of their dreams. While one of these fantasies hit the spot, a favorite author for me failed to deliver.
Bite
It took me a while to get into vampire romances. I can’t even watch when there’s blood on TV; the idea of an undead person sucking blood was not especially sexy to me. But since Undead and Unwed came out, I’ve reconsidered (read: Sinclair! Ooooh my!) This anthology, although a mixed success, continues the evolution…
The Night Before Christmas
There is a staff review of this book as well This month we read an old favorite of Linda’s, The Night Before Christmas.

Stroke of Midnight

It’s actually two Christmas stories with one New Year’s tale in between. Unfortunately for me, the New Year’s one is the weakest…
Girls’ Night In
Girls’ Night In is a collection of short stories to benefit War Child, a relief agency aiding children in war-torn areas. Some of the biggest names in chick-lit have contributed stories, and although not every one was my style, a pretty respectable number were. Since there are twenty-one stories and the book is only 325…
Burning Bright
Burning Bright is the name of a mysterious candle shop in the small town of Crescent Cove, Vermont. In this holiday anthology, three women discover the shop and buy a candle that impacts their lives. What’s most interesting about this collection is that each heroine is of a different faith with different holiday traditions. The…
