"a short and sexy story with a hint of magic"
Lonely Amber has just about given up on men---except in her
sleep, which is filled with sensuous dreams of the gorgeous
Tavis. When Tavis tells her he is one of the Chosen,
traveling through the dream world in search of his soul
mate, and that she is it, Amber doesn't know what to think;
all she knows is how much she wants him. She can bring
him through to her world completely, if they make love for
a third time on Samhain, binding their souls together and
creating a portal between the worlds. This union will
siphon magic into Tavis' world of Aldar, yet there are
conjurers who would claim the power for themselves... This story pulls no punches where the sex is concerned, and
the symbiotic relationship between our world and Aldar is
intriguing. Those looking for a short and sexy story with
a hint of magic will find this a thrilling read, for the
sex scenes are rich with detail and frankly hot.
Elsewhere the writing falters, relying on exposition when
dramatization would have been more effective, but this may
be a result of the novella's short length. Although the
sex scenes are generally well done, there are occasional
shifts in POV, which are a bit distracting; alternating the
POV might have been a more effective method to include
Tavis' perspective. The realm of Aldar is described in
loving detail, and the seeds are sown for a sequel, which
is already written and entitled Bound by Fate, and even for
a prequel, should the author choose to explore the
relationship between Amber's parents in the past.
