Can she find a way to trade one torment for another and thereby find true love?


The Siren Sarina by C.G. Powell - Author of Spell Checked
Being a siren is not all that it is cracked up to be, especially when you play with the gods. Sarina, like all good sirens, has a penance for sex and not with just anyone. This time her prey is Ares the god of war and lover to Aphrodite. Not that Sarina minds stepping on the goddess of loves toes, but when Ares gifts her with the powers of a god, Zeus can’t help but to intervene.


Fool Moon by Cait Lavender - Author of Cowboy Moon
All Jack saw when he looked at Carlie was perfection until she ripped out a man's throat. Confused by the pull she had on his heart, he is left with the choice to chase after the love of his life or to be left howling at the Fool Moon.

With an eternity as the Angel of Death before him, not much could get under Dorian Hade's skin--that was until he met Gwen Sparks. She shuts down all of his advances and insists they are just friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Compilation! Couldn't put it down! March 10, 2012

I must say that I am an Stephanie Nelson fan so when she gave a sneak peak into her Gwen Sparks saga I had to pick this up and read it to get my fix! But not only did she not disappoint but I was introduced to 5 other amazing authors who literally had me so enthralled in what they wrote, I had to look them up and purchase more from them!

I particularly enjoyed Sweet Little Lies by Liz Schultze, the story of Femi the otherworldy bounty hunter who introduces us to a new world of supernatural beings!! This story had me hooked from the beginning as she embarks on a conspiracy to uncover who is framing the vampires while she falls for one herself who isn't who he appears to be! The intimacy in these scenes is HOT!!! I had to fan myself because they were detailed and sensual, definately sexy!!!

Autumn's Call by Lisa Rayns is about Autumn and her encounter with a "ghost" as he helps her cope with dying as she succumbs to her final hours of life, but nothing is how it seems, and the twist in this story still has my head spinning....Love has no boundary in this tale, and neither does the love making!! I just kept thinking how I totally didn't see the end coming!! It was brilliant!

Tell A Soul by Olivia Hardin is about reincarnation of souls and what happens when they finally meet up again in a life where they can finally be together! Only this time, something is different, magic is in play and Kristana and Langston must discover what magical powers have Kristana seeing into the spirit world and plaguing her with the undead! Their chemistry sizzles as they rediscover one another again, no explicit details, but still sizzling chemistry.

The Siren Sarina by C.G. Powell is about a succubus who has tanles with the Greek Gods, only she has made an enemy out of Aphrodite and finds herself at Zeus' mercy. Can this sexy siren convince Zeus that she had every right to do what she did, I mean the art of seduction can't be held against her can it, even if she goes against the God of Love?

Fool Moon by Cait Lavender is a military tale that includes werewolves and what happens when the Alpha's daughter mixes with a military man at Fort Bragg. What happens when Carlie exposes herself to Jack, how will he react to her being a werewolf, and will their one night of intense intimacy be enough to keep him? This werewolf tale has soome heat to it, and in the end you can't help but root for Carlie and Jack!!

When Opportunity Haunts by Stephanie Nelson is a starts off where Decieved left off, as Gwen Sparks and Dorian Hade becoming roommates. Dorian is convinced that Gwen is fighting her attraction to him so he cooks up a scheme to get her out of town and alone with him in a hotel room where he can tempt her to do what he knows she really wants to. Their attraction is undeniable and their chemistry is sizzling, and being inside Dorian's head to get his point of view is a nice treat! I loved this anthology, as I am all for team Dorian!! This just proves I can never get enough of Gwen Sparks, MORE PLEASE!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Get collection by six amazing authors February 27, 2012

By Lisa A. Markson

Format:Kindle Edition

In my Opinion:

This collection of stories is a must read. It is done by 6 truly talented and outstanding writers and they leave you salivating for more.
In Sweet Little Lies by Liz Shulte tells us the story of Femi who is a Schkmet. She also works as a bounty hunter in the Abyss. She learns that she should always trust in her instincts even if they are left in question due to a sad, sob story. Femi finds out that sometimes it is ok to work with someone when they truly have your back. I would love to see more in the story of Femi in the future, she is a great character that has loads of potential.
Autumn's Call by Lisa Rayns is a girl who has death on her door and trying to fight it. She meets up with a stranger and thinks they are death coming for her. Death asks her to make one request before accepting her fate. Her only request is to ask forgiveness of the only man that she loved, then she would accept her fate. Autumn is drawn up into the moments and finds out more than she may have bargained for. I would love to see the continuation of Autumn into the next stage.

Tell A Soul by Olivia Hardin is a about a women who felt she has lost everything her husband, her stability and even her mind. Until she takes a job working with children at a group home of sorts. There she meets Langston and finds out that nothing is lost only found. Olivia gives a great base to a story that can captivate you in. This is a making of a great series.

The Siren Sarina by C.G. Powell was a great book about a Siren who got tangled up in a mess with the Gods of Olympus. She was made to come before Zeus in order to tell her story of what happened and to hopefully escape without any further consequences. This had lots of Greek mythology mixed in to it to had to the great storyline. I have it on good authority that C.G. Powell will be continuing the story at a latter date.

Fool Moon by Cait Lavender was a great book about Lupine. Calie is a strong Lupine working at a bar when she comes to meet a human by the name of Jack who just happens to be under her father Colonel Jameson at Fort Bragg. The meeting ends up giving him more than he thought was possible and the fact that he accepted the situation as well as he did was remarkable. I would love to see the story between these to into a full length novel.

When Opportunity Haunts by Stephanie Nelson is a bonus story from her Gwen Sparks books. This gives the story of the duel for the heart between Dorian and Gwen. He is moved in with her and trying to train her as the spirit walker that she is along with trying to win her heart. Her body is willing but her mind keeps getting in the way.

All six of these writers are amazing in their own right but together they are a force to be reckoned with. I give this book 30 stars because it is worth 5 stars per story and I am wanting and needing to catch more of these stories in the future if there is more so run not walk to your closest computer and purchase this book you will not be disappointed.
