"This Paranormal Anthology is Phenomenal!"

This anthology is not to be missed. Three extremely talented authors wrote three fabulous stories that are guaranteed to satisfy fans of paranormal romance.

"Masquerade" is Amanda Ashley's contribution to this anthology. Jason Blackthorn is a 300-year-old vampire who has been searching his whole life for the cure to his problem. He's only heard rumors that there actually is a cure. Along comes Leanne into his life. Will she be the one who will finally be the answer to his dilemma? What will Leanne do when she finds out he's a vampire? This is the first thing I've read by Amanda Ashley but this story has only whet my appetite for more of her stories.

"Dark Dream" is Christine Feehan's contribution and what a story this is. Ms. Feehan has finally allowed us a peek into an ancient Carpathian's life. Falcon has been around since before Mikhail's father was destroyed. While on his way back to the Carpathian Mountains to say his final goodbyes, he finds Sara, his lifemate. Now it's a race between Falcon and Sara and the vampire that has been tracking Sara for fifteen years. What does this vampire want with Sara and can Falcon finally destroy him before he destroys them? I have enjoyed all of Christine's Dark novels thus far and this one is no exception.

"Midnight Serenade" is Ronda Thompson's contribution. Rick Donavon is a veterinarian by day but a wolf by night during the full moon. He only wants the hunters to destroy him in order to be saved from his horrid nightmare. Stephanie Shane is a wildlife researcher who rescues endangered animals and she's in the area to save the wolves the farmers are trying to destroy. She saves Rick's life the first night she's in the woods and he bites her. Now he has to figure out how to save her before she turns into a monster like him. Will he be able to figure it out before it's too late? This is Ronda Thompson at her very finest!

I highly recommend these three superb stories. They each are guaranteed page-turners. I do recommend setting aside some quality time to read this book non-stop.
