Four short stories of love, lust, and laughter! This book is steamy and hilarious all at the same time. An incredible read. ( )

***** "Santa Claws". Scottish werewolf in town to pay tribute to the new heir runs across a woman dressed as Santa. Great blend of humor and burning-hot steam. Plus, there's a shout-out to Emma Holly, which is way cool.

***** "Monster Love". Ooooh, a combo! Betsy-vamp meets Wyndham werewolf. Hot and hilarious, and daring. Not many authors can write a bondage & rape scenario and still make me root for the hero.

***** "There's No Such Thing as a Werewolf". A blind werewolf doctor meets a younger woman who just has this feeling that she should be able to fly, and he can suddenly see her.

***** "A Fiend in Need". Yes! Another combo! Antonia, the seer, non-Changing werewolf from Derik's Bane, and George the Fiend from the Betsy books. ( )

I've only read two other of MaryJanice Davidson's books, Undead and Unwed and The Royal Treatment. In each of those books I found Davidson's strength to be in her (humorous) character development. That, unfortunately, is grossly missing here. The characters were just not that compelling -even those characters I absolutely loved in the undead series. And to top it off, all four of these stories started sounding pretty repetitive. The main plot points, descriptions, and even (at times) the dialog tended to be pretty interchangeable from story to story. I'm looking forward to reading Undead and Unemployed and I'm just gonna forget about this one. ( )

Very disappointed in this anthology. The only story worth reading is the last one about Garrett and Antonia (from the Undead series). ( )

This book contains 4 short stories, mostly about the Author's werewolf series. The second short store "There are no such things as Werewolves" contains a rape scene where the victim is tied to a bed, and eventually likes it! How can any author write crap like this? Rape should never be portrayed this way, as a device to start a romantic relationship. ( )
