review 1: Review for Nocturnereads.comThis Anthology includes 3 stories, but honestly the last one was the saving grace of this book for me."Dream Catchers" by Kate Douglas I am not into sci-fi, nothing against it; I have just never been able to get into it. Aliens just don’t do it for me. There was no warning or clue given in the blurb that this was anything other than a paranormal read. I am sorry to say I didn’t even finish this story.“Taken Between” by Crystal Jordan This was a cute little read. I like Kara and Max’s situation and the “Between” world is intriguing. Personally, I didn’t feel an emotional connection. There were no invisible strings holding me to this story until I finished. The potential was there, but it fell a little short for my expectations. "T... morehe Right Number" by Lynn LaFleur I just love when werewolves find their mates. The instant connection is strong, the sex is possessive, and the ending is forever. I read this story all in one sitting, not needing to put it down and do something else-like the other stories. What wasn’t great about this story is Clint, the ending was way too rushed. Other than that it was a good read.Honestly this wasn’t my favorite book, but I don’t regret reading it. You don’t fully appreciate the good books if you don’t occasionally read some that are mediocre.
review 2: Nightshift by Kate Douglas, Crystal Jordan and Lynn LaFluer* I received a copy of this book from Kensington in exchange for an honest review*Dream Catcher by Kate DouglasDream Catcher is the first installment in Kate's new Dream Catcher series. Mac has lost everything but his best friend Dink, all because of money and jealously. He had his graduate work stolen and has lost his grants and access to the computer labs on campus. His dream girl suddenly appears in his apartment, complete with violet eyes, after a night of drinking. There is something off about her but he can’t put his finger on it.Zianne hears Mac’s call and realizes that he could be the one to help save her people. She can’t believe how sexy Mac is and enjoys her time with him but she feels guilty for not being able to tell him the truth about her true self. Between the two of them, they begin work on a computer program that will eventually be instrumental in saving her family.Mac and Zianne are sexy together, the shower scene was super Hot but the scene with them and Dink was a page scorcher. Strange things keep happening when Zianne is around but when Mac is with her, all of the doubts and concerns seem to fly out the window. I love that the characters were kept to a minimum in this short story. This book provides us with the back story and foundation for future Dream Catcher books. Overall I really enjoyed this short story and can’t wait to read the next installment.Taken Between by Crystal JordanTaken Between is the second story in the Between series by Crystal Jordan (book 1 can be found in Sexy Beast 9, Between Lovers).

Now that they are both back, she is determined to get what she wants, Max.Max has returned to help his brother but he is still battling demons from his childhood.

He believes everything his father has told him over the years so he doesn’t believe he is anything other than a henchman to protect his brother, the King.Max and Kira are good together. They have been in love with each other for years but both are too stubborn to admit it. It took them both leaving home to realize what was missing in their lives. They are able to provide each other with what they need to help with the healing process. It takes a near death experience for the two of them to realize that they both want a future together.The Right Number by Lynn LaFleurJay is looking for something new to invest in outside of San Francisco and ends up finding his mate when he makes a wrong call. His wolf immediately reacts to the sound of her voice and he can't wait to actually meet her.Roni works for her families security firm where her and her sisters make calls on perspective clients while her brothers stay in the office.
