A LOVE ETERNAL Copyright © 2005 N.J. WALTERS
This is a wonderful story about a rather unusual character, and a rarely seen set of circumstances.

Genevieve Alexander has always been a "good girl" never flighty, or promiscuous, but just where has it gotten her. A waitress in a diner, with acquaintances but no real close friends, alone in the world and now, well now, she's been told she has only a short time to live. So when a tall dark stranger approaches her on the bridge, she acts on instinct and trusts him and is initiated into the sensual arts and all that can be between a man and a woman.

Unable to believe the depths of her feelings for this stranger, and the depths of sadness she sees in him, she refuses to believe him when he shows her what he truly is. An erotic story devoted to the power of love.

KEEPER OF TOMORROWS Copyright © 2005 RAVYN WILDE
When Raine opens her door to a gorgeous man, she feels a connection she can't logically explain, and when he convinces her to listen to his story, she has a hard time determining which feelings to follow, her lust, the undeniably haunting sense of recognition or logic.

If what he says is true, then there is a whole lot more out there than she has previously imagined, and when he proves himself to her by showing his true form, things get infinitely, and very passionately interesting.

Talon can only try to persuade her to accept him as his true mate, she has the option to refuse him, and to send him back to a suspended slumber, but there has been a breach between his world and hers, and they are needed to repel the invader. A delightful story of Ellora's Cavemen IV with a purpose bigger than themselves, though being a fated mate to a gorgeous being with blue hair and silver skin definitely has some very hot side benefits, another excellent story in an anthology filled with excellent stories.

SEEDS OF YESTERDAY Copyright © 2005 JAID BLACK
This is one of the most touching tales I've read recently. A dear diary tale of tender and sometimes painful memories brought to the forefront at the death of the best friend from highschool with all the angst and insecurities of teenagehood and the bittersweet memories of times less than good, but with the golden nugget of friendship and young, if unrequited, love,. Truly a story to make you reflect on the people who meant something to you from your own past, with a dash of romance hot enough to make you it read again and to revive your belief in happy ever after. An awesome story.
