This book contains 4 stories of paranormal romance.
Winter Born by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Pandora is desperate for help so heads to Atlanta after she hears that the city is holding its annual Scifi convention, an event which Acheron regularly attends. Although an Arcadian pantheress, she is barely controlling her animal instincts whilst in heat and is determined to return to her own time, a future from which she was snatched from. Unfortunately she encounters 4 virile Katagari panthers and once they get a whiff of her scent it proves difficult to get rid of them.
Born Of The Night by Amanda Ashley
Lady Shannara is taken as a hostage by Lord Reyes in revenge for the murder of his father. Yet despite his vicious threats, no harm befalls Shannara and she finds herself drawn to the darkly handsome man who carries a macabre secret.
Make It Last Forever by L A Banks
Rider is a believer of free love with no emotional commitments until he meets a mysterious and beautiful young woman named Tara. After telling him he is a Guardian he finds himself offering her his protection from some nasty bloodsuckers as she travels to her Cherokee grandmother for a cure for the illness that plagues her. Yet as the journey lengthens, Tara finds herself hungry and the vein in Rider's neck looks mighty tempting.
Red Moon Rising by Lori Handeland
Maya gets by as an author so she's pretty upset when she develops writers block. Inspiration comes in the form of Clayton Phillips, a mysterious man who saves her from a strange wolf intent on attacking her. Maya's dull life is suddenly full of adventure as Clay claims to be a member of a secret organisation hunting something called a Skinwalker. As the blood moon rises and the wind whispers words only Maya can hear, she is terrified to learn that she is Chosen, the individual a Skinwalker marks for sacrifice.
All the other stories in this book paled into insignifiance when compared to SK's Winter Born. This story is an absolute must for fans of her Darkhunter series, with familar faces cropping up throughout the pages. I'm sorry to say that the other stories in this anthology failed to impress me yet I still recommend that fans of SK grab a copy quickly.

This book earned three stars from me only, and exlusively because of Dante Pontis, the hero of Sherrilyn Kenyon's "Winter Born". What can I do, I'm a sucker for Hunters - Were, Dream, and specially Dark ones.
The L.A. Banks' story just made me skip pages, but the other two were passable.
Nothing to miss, there.

The Sherrilyn Kenyon story was, as ever, excellent. The other three just didnt get me interested in the same way. The plots wondered, the characters were weak and I felt that the authors had just rushed them out.
Worth buying for the WereHunter story but not much else.

Lori Handeland was the bright shining star in this one...
I like paranormal romance, but not ordinarily stuff that involves werewolves or vampires, etc. In paranormal romance I usually prefer faeries and mostly urban fantasy fiction. Read more
