Better than a chocolate fix

Lacy Danes, Megan Hart, Jackie Kessler, and Jess Michaels all strutted their literary stuff(s) in this anthology. lol. Though their writing styles were distinctly different, they were all honed to perfection. These ladies are truly talented and know how to tell interesting stories. I even read Jackie Kessler's 'Hell Is Where the Heart Is' even though the demon lovers storyline creeped me out. lol. Yet it was Jess Michaels' 'By Valentine's Day' that stirred me the most. I found myself routing for Colin to win Charlotte's hand, despite his reputation of being a rake. The fact that Charlotte's passions matched his own had me screaming, "Don't marry the boring guy simply because he's emotionally safe! Marry the guy who can make you forget your own name in his kiss! Marry Colin!" Did Charlotte listen to me? You'll have to get the book and see. I'm not spoiling this surprise ending for anything. lol.

"Torn Desires" by Lacey Danes. Widow Sophia enjoys having two hunks in her life while wondering if choosing one over the other will be enough to satiate her appetite. "Get There" by Megan Hart. Edie and Ty are lovers though their relationship is long distance; each dreams of their next in person reunion on Valentine's Day as they ponder how they will arrive at the tryst site and what they plan to do with their beloved. "Hell Is Where the Heart Is" by Jackie Kessler. The two demons need time away from their jobs of enticing mortals so they take deserved vacation nights to enjoy sex the way it is meant to be, demon heated. "By Valentine's Day" by Jess Michaels. The rake has until Valentine's Day to persuade Charlotte that he loves her, but she is marrying someone else in one week; his plan to win her heart is to love her with a passion from the core of his soul. These are four well written erotic romantic novellas that range from historical to fantasy to contemporary, but share the title of A RED HOT VALENTINE'S DAY collection. Fan who relish their sweets served differently will want to read this heated holiday anthology. Harriet Klausner

Enjoyable Sensual Reading for Valentine's Day!

Nothing is so special, except chocolates, flowers and/or diamonds :) for this romantic holiday than a good sensual erotic Valentine romance anthology to read....and this is a good one! In Lacy Dane's Torn Desires, a beautiful widow, Sophia, who is the lover of the handsome Lord Quinton and happens to live in a cottage near his estate, discovers he has written a special woman friend to pick a proper lady wife who will not only fit into his title but his desires in the bedroom, and she is livid. But then Lord Quinton's friend Miss Anne Cathcort just happens to bring her lover Alistair Taylor, the third son of the Marquis of Lanktor who is immediately drawn to Sophia's sensuality and passion. Soon Sophia finds herself in a "pick and choose" between the two superb lovers. Who will fulfill her desires and eventually her heart? This is one sexy story that keeps the reader entertained and wondering until the end. Megan Hart's Get There, is one sexy long distance contemporary relationship with sexy and passionate emails, text messages, and phone calls between Edie and Ty as they prepare to finally be together and hopefully pack up and move their careers and homes to be together before Valentine's Day. The sensual fantasies Edie and Ty create are fun and the story leaves the reader patiently waiting to see if these two passionate lovers can make the Valentine's Day deadline to create a loving and sensual future. Valentine's Day wouldn't be fun without a sensual paranormal romance in this anthology and Jackie Kessler hits a high score with her tale of one cuddly incubus and an oversexed succubus, in Hell Is Where the Heart Is. Daunuan and Jezebel have longed for each other throughout the Abyss and finally get a chance to be together, even if they have to take time out to join with a few humans along the way. The story is creative with short sensual and erotic subchapters that move back and forth from Daunuan's and Jezebel's thoughts, feelings and specialized sexual desires. Those who love to eat up a good paranormal will love this sensual underworld Valentine story. By Valentine's Day by Jess Michaels is the real treat of this anthology and is worth purchasing this book just for the opportunity to read an excellent erotic story from one of the best erotic romance authors. This writer's specialty, the Regency Romance, pulls the heartstrings as two long time friends the beautiful Charlotte and handsome Colin, face the reality that they have loved each other for as long as they can remember.
