This review is from: Fantasy: Untrue Stories of Lesbian Passion (Paperback)

I had to laugh out loud at the title. If I wasn't already predisposed to buy this book based on the writers and the editors the title would have caused me to pick it up.

I have always enjoyed anthologies from this publisher and the editors do a superb job of finding stories that are sexy, engaging and well written. With the contributors below there is something for everyone.

The hardest decision was which story to read first, so I smartly decided to read them in the order the editors presented them. At over 300 pages it was a month's worth of reading for this delighted fan.

Don't miss the amusing introduction.


This is a keeper.
