review 1: This is a combined stories of known authors that I love. Some stories are quite to my fancy, others are not. So I will give my review on each of the story included.Captain of Nara’s Heart by Laurann Dohner:The plot is really simple that I wish there are more complications are included. The sex scenes are many, but the others are just fast forwarded that I feel I was left out in the story. The way Nara falls in love seems quite fast for me, but the Captain's possession of her (not just physically)is quite hot. The ending for me is quite uncertain for the main and sub characters that I wish it was longer. Overall, it is a nice read.Dragon Heat by Mel Teshco:It is an semi action pack story of a Dragon and a Dragon Breeder on the run. It will make you tense on what will happ... moreen to them. The sex scenes are also hot. But the ending is quite disappointing to me, it seems like the events happened are so convenient for the H/h, and for the story to have a happy ending. Dangerous Addiction by Desiree Holt:The plot is quite simple, a woman having trust issues and a man wanted to remove that wall. Seems like the woman have no will to herself and no mind to know that her ex is abusing her. Anyway, there are bdsm scenes (which I skip because it's not my fancy). The ending is quite abrupt that you are not sure what are their future. I wish the author make it longer, including the party that is supposed to be happening on the ranch.Highland Tryst by Eliza Knight:This is the story of a Highland Warrior who had lost everything in the past and try to create a new life in the future. The story is about his adjustments in the new era and how the heroine helps her have a semblance of life. The story is simple, the sex scenes nice. It is a nice light read for me.Tattoo Witch by Kathy Kulig:The couple, Sam and Anita have been tricked by another couple on having tattoos to have great sex life. The way they experimented is thrilling, the way Anita let loose of her inhibitions and dominates Sam is quite fun to read. I just wish there is a resolution on the curse on the other couple and on the curse of the Tattoo witch, so it can really be a happy ending for everyone.The Addiction by Jaid Black:This is a story of a poor little rich guy and the woman who finally lets him out of desolation. The plot is cute, and the sex scenes are quite hot and sweet at the same time. The ending (and some of the scenes) are quite cheesy for me, but happy that it have a good ending.
review 2: Overall this was a great collection of sexy short stories. Totally LOVED Captain of Nara’s Heart by Laurann Dohner (5 Stars to her) and Highland Tryst by Eliza Knight (5 Stars). Both of these hooked me and kept me reading. I enjoyed the love story and even with the quick read and the short time for the lovers to fall for each other, the story was believable to me. I could see the progression of their feelings.Dragon Heat by Mel Teshco was pretty good as well, just didn't grab me as much as the previous two that I mentioned above (4 Stars). I would totally love to see this as a full length novel.Tattoo Witch by Kathy Kulig truth be told, kind of weirded me out. Not sure what to think of this one. I think it was well written, but didn't grab me as a romance. It had a good moral and for that I give it 3 1/2 stars.Dangerous Addiction by Desiree Holt. I wanted to like this one, I really did. But, I didn't feel the emotion that should have been in the story. It really bothered me how he called her girl. Maybe I'm just not a Dom/Sub kind of gal. (2 stars). less
