Creepin'

by L.A. Banks (Editor, Contributor), Donna Hill (Contributor), J.M. Jeffries (Contributor)

Welcome to a world of werewolves, vampires, demons and mere mortals, where, in the name of revenge, five women are about to live out their wildest fantasies—even if it means crossing over to that other side...

Five of today's most provocative authors invite you into a realm beyond the limits of your sensual imagination, where anything can happen—and does. In these stories of bloodlust and payback, of scorching desire and otherworldly fantasies come true, you'll encounter five women who thought they had it all, until a betrayal takes them on a feverish journey to the dark edge of vengeance. Fueled by lust and deception, these women are going to let their voracious appetites guide them as they take justice into their own hands...

Sex and the Supernatural need I say more.

This is actually a paranormal romance anthology. As typical of me, I only read the Banks story and enjoyed it.

I enjoyed these supernatural stories. The authors made the stories flow with an out of the box ending.

Five different paranormal authors take you along for a rollicking romance on the dark side.

Did not care at all for 'The Heat of the Night' by Donna Hill. Totally without plot and was nothing more than a continuing sexual encounter that was too far fetched to even enjoy. The other 2 stories -- 'Payback is a Bitch' by LA Banks & 'Vamped' by Monica Jackson were okay reads, though I feel that 'Vamped' had too 'miraculous' of an ending.

Without question the best 2 stories in the book were 'Balancing the Scales' by JM Jeffries and 'Avenging Angel' by Janice Sims with 'Avenging Angel' winning in a landslide.

I enjoyed the Jeffries story. It had a good plot and storyline. Nice finish and definitely made me want to look into more books by these talented authors.

But I have to say that I loved Janice Sims' story. It read like a novel and the minute that I finished I rushed to her website to see if there were any more books about the Nephilim. Sadly I did not see any but I really hope that this author plans to take this storyline further. I can see an entire series evolve from this story. Wonderful read!!!

I read this book so long ago, it what helped me get back into reading while I was waiting for the next Sookie Stackhouse book. I got it from the library and I read this whole book in one sitting. It was great, from the first story to the last. Every story was full of romance, paranormal activity and just plain awesomeness.

This book is the one of the best books I have read with a tantalizing stories of women by women. Not only are these women in the story Bad as hell the authors are on it. I would advise reading this one.

Liked the first two stories best, skimmed the rest of them. May check out more of L.A. Banks work as a result.

Loved the story by L.A. Banks. Wished it was more than just a short story. This e-book introduced me to some new authors.

This book was not what I expected but good none the less. The title truly throws you off.
