REVIEW

"Exciting paranormal anthology"

From paranormal to supernatural to futuristic romance, this anthology has something for everyone who likes their romances to step outside the normal romance guidelines. All four tales are so good, readers will think they were written by authors that are OUT OF THIS WORLD.

"Interlude in Death" by J.D. Robb. New York Police Lieutenant Eve Dallas goes off planet to give a talk at the interplanetary law enforcement and security conference. Once there an enemy of her husband offers her captain bars if she helps take Roarke down. Killings directed at Roarke soon follow, leaving Eve to fight for her life and Roarke's.

"Kinsman" by Sue Krinard. Two telepaths try to stop a war from breaking out between the human colonists and the Shaavrin race. The Shaavrin refuse to allow humans in their space sector unless a kinsman is aboard. Kori and Jonas must stop a plot to destroy the existing order while finding time to deepen their relationship.

"Immortality" by Maggie Shayne. A beautiful witch turns to the dark side when her child dies. The witch lives for four thousand years, but then almost dies. Matthew, who is mourning his wife and unborn child rescues her. Together they find the love and acceptance they never found with their deceased spouses.

"Magic like Heat Across my Skin" by Laurell K Hamilton. Anita breaks her self-imposed silence to ask for help from her vampire lover Jean Claude in getting back one of her were-jaguars. To do so he insists that they must merge auras. She reluctantly agrees, with the results being something never before seen in this world.
