"Three For One!"

HARD CANDY is a very hot, very erotic anthology from Loose Id with three authors who will have you finding a way to cool off after reading their novellas.

Angela Knight's Hero Sandwich takes us into the world of superheroes. Cougar and Lynx are waiting for Paparazzi to make an appearance. For months she has been going around snapping pictures of superheroes in action. The problem is that she has an invisible suit and it will take quick reflexes to catch her. Paparazzi, once was on the wrong side of the law, forced to be her father's sidekick. Now that he is in jail, she has gone straight, but she has always had a very adult fantasy starring her and Cougar. But she gets more then she bargained for.

In Sheri Gilmore's Candy For Her Soul, Natalie Pesqua is offered some candy from a stranger, but in exchange for it she gets what she has always secretly wanted both Nico and David. David was the school jock that all the girls went for and Nico was the bad boy Mama always warned you about. She wants both but is she willing to pay the price?

In Morgan Hawke's Fortune's Star, after being fired from her receptionist job, Luxi finds herself all of a sudden being pursued by two very different men who want her all to themselves. Leto is a cyborg who is haunted by a ghost and has very hot, erotic needs of the human kind and Amun is an Imperial lord a telepath who brings the three together.

HARD CANDY takes you into the sensual world of three people who were meant to be together in every sense of the word. Each author will have you clamoring for more. Angela Knight has been one of my favorite authors for a long time. Her story is another reason why fans of Ms Knight are always anxious for more.

This is the first time I have read both Ms Gilmore and Ms Hawke and it certainly will not be the last. In her story, Ms, Gilmore shows that maybe selling your soul wouldn't be so bad after all, if the results get you guys like David and Nico. Morgan Hawke takes you on an adventure across the galaxies and leaves you going outside in the middle of winter to cool off.

HARD CANDY is from Loose-Id and it is VERY hot and has non-traditional romance. If you love to read the hot stuff like I do, you won't want to miss HARD CANDY.

Summary

Hero Sandwich by Angela Knight
Take two handsome superheroes, add one bad girl gone good -- and stand back while the sparks fly!

Meg Jennings is more than a photographer -- she's Paparazzi, superhero shutterbug. Using the suit that gives her the ability to fly and turn invisible, she takes photos of superheroes in combat with their deadliest enemies.

Some of Meg's subjects aren't exactly delighted with her work. Cougar and his sidekick Lynx, for example, find themselves the butt of the late-night talk show circuit because of one of Meg's photos.They decide to take erotic revenge, and soon Meg finds herself in a delicious hero sandwich.

But has she bitten off more than she can chew?

Candy for her Soul by Sheri Gilmore
There's a reason mama always said not to take candy from a stranger.

Natalie Pesqua accepts candy from a persuasive stranger, never guessing she's traded her soul to the devil. In exchange for her soul, he grants the desire of her heart: two men to fulfill her every erotic fantasy.

Love wasn't part of the bargain.

Fortune's Star by Morgan Hawke
In the heart of the Imperial Stars, past and future collide, as ghosts converge in battle for a fortune-teller's soul...on Port Destiny Station.

Luxi Emery was perfectly happy with her position as the receptionist for Armored Media Corp. Then her hidden talent for seeing the future awakened -- and exposed a black-mailing con-artist haunted by a malevolent ghost. It was a lose-lose situation, and Luxi had only a single shred of hope.

Her future awaits on Port Destiny Station. A future intertwined with Amun, the handsome diplomatic telepath, and Leto, a ghost-haunted cyborg with very human carnal appetites. If they can resolve a few...intimate...details.

Yet a darker future is chases Luxi: they are not alone, and Leto's is not the only hungry ghost.
