HER LANCE ALOT- DELILAH DEVLIN Lady Mary was given to Lord Roland as bride by the king. While Lady Mary may not have had a choice about the marriage she deceides not to consume the marriage. Of course Lord Ronald can't wait to bed his bride and seduces her while forcing her to bathe him. While the storyline was pedictable it was still an enjoyable read. Very hot bathing scene.
DANCE OF THE PLAIN JANE- LILLIAN FEISTY Jane Halliday is attracted to Navy Seal Michael Sky. She watches him when he is jogging or when they run into each other at the coffee shop. Michel never notices her. To make herself feel desireable Jane took up belly dancing and performs at a local restaurant. One evening while dancing, Michael walks in and Jane seduces him with her dance. While making love Michael gets a call to report to duty. He leaves Jane behind embarrassed and humiliated. A week later Michael comes looking for her. Very hot and steamy. I loved it that Jane has a little meat on her and is usually not Michaels type. But he was truly hooked.
CLUB VAMP- ALLYSON JAMES Kenelm is a master vampire who is loosing his powers. Together with his lover Adam they are looking for a certain woman to restore his power. They find her in Helen. Helen can't make love to any man because her body gives of a deadly electrical energy when she reaches an orgasm. Pretty hot. Does have m/m interaction.
CHOOSING MADISON- SHERRILL QUINN Madison is a romance novelist who unbeknown to her befriends and alien princess. One evening while spending some time with her new friend two guys appear in front of her. Gaelen and Leax have come to take the princess home. After getting over her inital shock she Madison agrees to travel with them to attend her friends wedding. Gaelen and Leax know that Madison is their mate and start the seduction. This was a fun read.
COME HOWLING- DENISE ROSSETTI Whenever she comes near someone with irish blood who has suffered a tragic loss, Maeve starts to act like a banshee. Needing employment she meets with Luc who runs an employment agency. She confideds her problem to him. Luc is attracted to her and fails to mention that he has his own secret. When he gets excited he grows horns, his eyes turn red and he grows a tail. This story was kind of weird. There was a a scene where Luc used his tail (not the cannon) in the sex act. Talk about double penetration.
LYRAEL'S SACRAFICE- JORY STRONG Lyraeal belongs to the Azzura tribe. She has been chosen to be sacraficed to the Djinn. Asrafil is the Djinn that comes for Lyrael. Since the previous sacrafices killed themselves before cpmpleting the Djinn's test he does not have alot of hope to ever bringing a wife home to the City of Djinn.

This book has 293 pages and holds 6 stories. Don't expect deep character development.
Six stories. Most were ok but too short to be really good. Sex scenes were pretty good.

Story was good. Sex was very hot. Sex includes two men with one woman and rear door activity. I would have liked more about the characters. But I wouldn’t shorten the sex scenes to do that. I’d make the story longer.

Weak 3 stars for LYRAEL’S SACRIFICE by Jory Strong.
Lyrael is a young woman (or teen) living in a desert village in the past. Every so many years her clan makes a sacrifice to the Djinn, the spirits who create and control sandstorms. Lyrael has been having dreams about a Djinn named Asrafil. She is the current sacrifice. She is taken to a mountain and tied to a tree. She is given poison as an option if things become bad. Asrafil produces frightening creatures to test her courage, trust, etc. He does this three times. He does not tell her she is being tested. There is a lot of sex during the tests.
The story was weird. I like weird, but this was not the best weird. Parts of the plot did not make sense. It wasn’t well developed. There is almost no conversation. He keeps telling her not to speak. I guess that’s ok since the purpose of the story is erotic sex with a handsome stranger. The sex scenes were very detailed and well described, but they didn’t excite me as much as some of the others. There is rear door activity.

i'll cetainly look into purchasing more books by these authors!
Erotica anthology by assorted, well known authors. Paranormal as well as historical romantica. Wish all of these stories weren't so short. They all had potential.
This is a very enjoyable book and if you are thinking about reading any of these authors (new to you?) this is a good sampling of their work. This is a anthology with 6 short stories. Very HOT, sexy reads all around:
Choosing Madison By Sherrill Quinn ~ Alien Gaelen Brecca has to track down the errant fiancée of his world's leader. When he finds her hiding out on Earth, Gaelen has no choice but to bring back Earthwoman Madison Marquette as well.

All of them are very good but I would have to say that Delilah Devlin's "Her Lance-Alot" was my favorite!
This was an ok book. There were some good stories and some I couldn't finish. I liked most of the story lines and characters. The few I couldn't finish were because of personal preference (don't really dig the same sex unions) or just turn me colder than ice on Antarctica. The ones I did like we're pretty good. There were definitely steamy scenes, some emotions, some out-there settings that were interesting, and good personalities. A pretty good read for one-sittings (each story), just for something to read, passing time, or rainy days. Overall...eh. Good Luck
There is nothing better than reading a book from Ellora's Cave unless it is an anthology.
You get a book that will make you scream and it will make you happy to have different authors to read. Makes you happy and it touches something for each fantasy that you have.
I can't seem to pick my favorite one out of this book so don't ask. I loved the cover and if this guy is who I have to dream about then I will be happy.
I bought this to read Delilah Devlin's story 'Her Lance-Alot'. It was good, but, with the exception of 'Plain Jane', the other stories were also very good. Wish the authors would do some re-writing and make some of them into books. I don't usually like anthologies, but this is a good one, altogether.
Out of the 6 stories I've only read one so far. Lillie Feisty's DANCE OF THE PLAIN JANE. It was a very quick read (as it should be in this type of book) and very enjoyable. I especially loved the ending. Thought it was perfect.
This was a really good collection of stories and very hot. It's got something for everyone. I loved everything by these authors except for one story because I'm into the m/m thing. But everything else was good.
