"strong entry"
Taming Kate by Jeanie Cesarini. New Yorker Kathryn
Roman
inherits a legal brothel in Love, Nevada. She rejects the
lifestyle change, but the townsfolk send hunk Trey Holiday
to persuade her to relocate as the Madame to the local cash
crop. Jared's Wolf by Mary Janice Davidson. Jared Rocke
lives
for one thing only to revenge the death of his sister from
werewolves. To his personal disgrace, Jared desires Moira,
protector of the werewolf pack. Soon these sworn enemies
will need to unite to stop a killer even as love flares
between them. My Champion, My Love by Alice Gaines. In 1888
Upstate
New York Celeste wants the same sexual and other freedoms
granted to males, but denied her gender. She seeks a hero
and thinks she has found him in Robert, a mayor, but love
makes both redefine her quest. Kiss or Kill by Liz Maverick. In 2043 DC, the world
has
dramatically changed and not for the better. Military
officer Camille must decide between destroying or allowing
Meat the Robo to live based on whether her target can prove
he is human. Though he makes her feel good about being a
woman, she has doubts whether he is a man or a machine. All four tales are well written and fun to read because
even the sexiest scenes are not written for shock value,
but interwoven into the plots. This quartet contains
strong plots and solid lead characters, but then again what
else would one expect from the no longer SECRETS
anthologies. Harriet Klausner
