Timeless Tales review by Amy Turpin, November 11, 2002
This review is from: No Mercy - Book 2: The Empress' New Clothes (MiniDisc)
Rem Q'an Tal has been searching for his Sacred Mate since he was freed from marriage to a woman not meant for him, without success. The mighty warrior is showing the strain of a Trystoni male without a Sacred Mate, the one woman in the entire galaxy who can complete him. The change starting to transform him is frightening, to say the least.
As he quests to the fifth dimension, to Earth, he finally has success. Only finding his Sacred Mate is almost enough to push him over the edge to madness. His "wee wife" is the very picture of the Goddess he worships and Rem is enchanted, to say the least. His wife, the almost-spinster Giselle McKenzie, is covered from head to toe in the most bedeviling "spots!"
Giselle is not sure what to think about the giant warrior who has claimed her as his wife. The bouts of near-madness he endures are enough to wrench her heart, but, being the attentive if exasperated wife, she soon finds the cure for his ailment. What she cannot deal with is the fascination with her freckles every man she comes across seems to have once she leaves Earth!
Although she neither understands everything happening to her or why her feelings for this gentle-giant are growing with every passing minute in his presence, she knows she loves him with her very being. She knows this man would do anything to keep her safe. When he leaves her to go help his brother and best friend fight the very creature he almost became, even though she has her misgivings, she says nothing. She can only hope she has the courage to save his family.
For sure, a bewitching sequel to 'The Empress' New Clothes." I was hooked from the first! Ms. Black's style is endearing and she writes with outstanding humor. There were other stories within this work, some simply touched on enough to get the reader's attention, others more in-depth. Even though I am looking forward to reading those stories, which I'm sure was the author's intention; I found it distracted from the main story somewhat. Overall, this book was an outstanding read and is recommended for the lover of science fiction and romantica, or for anyone simply looking for something as humorous as it is fantastical!

Oh Baby!, February 4, 2002
This review is from: No Mercy - Book 2: The Empress' New Clothes (MiniDisc)
Jaid Black is amazing. She has created a world unlike any you've ever read before. This is the type of universe lesser authors strive forever to achieve within their pages. With every Trek Mi Q'an story her universe grows and becomes more real. Her alpha males are the best ever written and her spunky heroines give their mates what-for! Make sure you have a free evening before you start reading this because once you pick it up you won't be able to put it down. These aren't your mother's tame romances either so be prepared for some amazingly hot sex-scenes and zany adventures galore! With talent like this I'm sure we'll see this rising star become a household name in a few years. I just can't wait for more!

NO MERCY : Trek Mi Q'an Series Book 2, November 25, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: No Mercy - Book 2: The Empress' New Clothes (MiniDisc)
This is King Rem's Story of the four Q'an Tal brothers. The
Emperess' New Clothes: Book 1 was about elder brothers:Emperor
Zor and King Dak's Sacred Mates. The series is HOT and SEXY. The
seventh dimension where the story takes place is not for the prudish. The ratio is ten warriors for every woman and to top it
all off there can be only one Sacred Mate for each man. So alot
of galaxy and dimension bride searching goes on. Well, King Rem's
has been searching for a while and time is running out for him.
He has a problem that only his Sacred Mate can solve!
