Book Description

June 15, 2004
The hand of fate delivers a magical gift: a needle made of gold, designed to last through the ages. From woman to woman, it passes through generations, mending hearts as well as cloth. Watch as a fair lady imprisoned on Avalon heals one of Arthur's knights-and in doing so frees them both to find the happiness they crave. Travel the early American plains beside a frightened young bride as she mends her new husband's shirts-and searches for the pioneering spirit she needs to be his helpmate. Flit through a virtual reality of fairy tales with a bewildered young executive who's looking for a sedative-but who finds her Prince Charming, instead. Through centuries and against the odds, the golden needle weaves a tapestry rich in laughter and tears as it restores hope, inspires faith, and sews the seeds of love in every woman whose life it touches. Meet the women and their heroes . . . and smile as fate takes a hand in making their dreams come true.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marvelous!, September 22, 2004
By 
This review is from: By Fate's Hand (Paperback)
Eight stories by hugely talented authors on a simple theme: women and their magic keep the world and mankind in sync.

Though I liked some stories (notably Hamre, Gunnufson, Grijalva and Byerly) better than others, each of the authors adds a special touch to their situations and locales. Some of the locales are found elsewhere, some are unusual. All fit as the gold needle of the Three Fates moves through time bringing lovers and hope together.

If you haven't read this marvelous anthology, don't wait. It's a cohesive unit and well worth a read. Or two!

5.0 out of 5 stars What the reviewers are saying about BY FATE'S HAND, August 1, 2004
By 
M. Byerly (High Point, NC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: By Fate's Hand (Paperback)
"Eight talented authors combine their storytelling skills to create a consecutive series of tales that are filled with warmth, joy and magic. The presence of the needle makes this anthology very cohesive and loads of fun to read. An ideal anthology for romance fans!"
Jill M. Smith, Romantic Times

"The only overt magical constant is the true magic of love in every story. ... (E)ach of the stories makes for worthwhile reading, and though penned by very different writers, the golden needle holds them all together to form a coherent tapestry."Amanda Killgore, Huntress Reviews

"BY FATE'S HAND is one of the most well done anthologies ever produced. The consistencies of the stories, the order of the journey the readers are lead on, as well as the intriguing theme of the needle, make this an anthology not to miss. All the authors shine with their writing talents. From the Prologue to the Epilogue, the flow of the stories and the authors' abilities to bring it all together, enriches the quality of this remarkable creation of love, joy, magic and its twists and turns." Tracey West for The Road to Romance

"A recommended addition to the electronic keeper shelf."SF Romance

"Each story captures the times perfectly, creating in a short space people you genuinely care about. Marilynn Byerly, Anita Lynn, Katherine Greyle, Lucy Grijalva, Bonnie Hamre, Judith Hershner, Candice Kohl and Alice Gaines Chambers weave a tapestry that fits together seamlessly, creating a picture of beauty, hope, and the thought that even when all else fades, love will endure." Affaire de Coeur

"BY FATE'S HAND is a wonderful collection of stories woven together by and around a magical needle that helps people to find the wisdom to achieve happiness. Readers of all romantic genres, from historical to futuristic, will find something to enjoy in this heartwarming book." Kathy Samuels, ROMANCE REVIEWS TODAY
