"Fantastic trio of heartwarming stories of love!"

In our first story in this anthology, ETERNAL PASSIONS by author Brandy Lee, Susan Keith is playing the part of Lady Buchan in a benefit play. Soap opera star Ryan Douglas has the part of Robert the Bruce. Just as the butterflies are starting to overwhelm Susan, there's a major problem. It seems there's a fire in the theater and a mass exodus ensues. Ryan grabs her and they start making their way outside. The next thing you know, Susan is Lady Montgomery and Ryan is Sir Alex Campbell back in Scotland in the year 1306. The two of them end up falling in love during one of the most brutal periods in Scottish history.

Is Susan the reincarnation of Lady Montgomery and Ryan Sir Alex Campbell? Will they have a chance at love in this time and age?

Our second story, LET'S GET CRAZY by Caryn Carter, deals with a totally different subject. Angel Duvernay did not receive good news from the doctor she visited. Now knowing she has a fatal disease, Angel has determined to finally live her life and have the sexual experience of her life. She still has to go back to the doctor for more tests, but he's already given her the bad news. The man Angel wants for this experience is pianist Eric Sweeney. Meanwhile, Eric has an agenda of his own. In a long-term relationship, Eric has decided to give himself a weekend of wild sex before popping the question. With no fireworks in his relationship, Eric needs to know if he's the reason why. So the two of them decide to spend the weekend together, no questions. Once the weekend is over, they will say goodbye and go their separate ways.

When the weekend ends, will they be able to say goodbye? What will the doctor tell Angel when she goes to see him? Will Eric become engaged to the woman he's been seeing?

And finally, we have TOIL AND TROUBLE by M.A. duBarry to finish off the anthology. In this story, Lord Trevor McGovern has managed to anger way too women with his "love 'em and leave 'em" attitude. When Old Esme comes to see him, Trevor knows he's in trouble. She lays a spell on Trevor, stating it won't be broken until he finds a woman he loves and that feeling is returned. The next thing you know, Trevor is a cat! We now move up a few centuries to the present day where witch Tabitha Cole has adopted Toil from a shelter. It turns out Tabitha has troubles of her own and is in danger.

Has Trevor finally found the one woman capable of breaking the spell? Will she fall in love with him? Will he be able to keep her safe?

SILK AND MAGIC BOOK TWO is filled with three wonderful stories, all very different. We have reincarnation from Brandy Lee, one last fling from Caryn Carter and magic and witchcraft from M.A. duBarry. The common thread holding all three stories together is love—a love meant to last through the ages. Even though none of these stories is very long, they are really good for a quick read with the heartfelt sigh at the end. I highly recommend this anthology to anyone in the mood for a good love story.
