Rob Knight

I need Knight to make this into a series. I loved this book. I just can't say enough. I can't stop thinking about it and comparing other books to it. The thriller part was excellent: intense, unpredictable, frightening. The romance part was beautiful: sweet, believable, tender, and very hot sex. The paranormal part was handled really well. I like how he thought of what it would really be like for someone with this ability to live: how he's treated as an invalid, as fragile, as someone who show more can't fend for himself but this is not who he was before this happened, a brilliant if arrogant professor. Knight showed how hard it was for him function and still fight for his independence and respect. I want so much more of the story and more about what happens next. I compared this to the Adrien English mysteries which I love, and this one was better. show less

This may be a very short story, just a glimpse into Wade and Sawyer's lives, but it sure had an impact on me. The main reason is Wade's voice as he tells his part of the story. Sawyer, too, is very special. He is a musician and clearly loves Wade deeply; he also understands him from one (slightly less crazy) artist to another. Short as the story was, that really came out very well.

Wade is a painter/sculptor whose work is famous and sells well. In the typical manner of an eccentric artist, show more his thoughts are focused on his work, everything else is a distraction. I really liked seeing things from his perspective, reading about the sudden jumps in his thoughts from one thing to the other until he finds something of interest. He has some really weird habits, like an endearing weakness for corn flakes, and he doesn't do well around people. Sawyer, though, is different, and I was glad to see Wade had at least one human being whom he let close enough for touching and loving.

Sawyer is a great guy. He respects Wade, adores him, and has learned how to deal with his (many) idiosyncrasies. His big thing is to get Wade to move in with him, but he knows that is a tall order. He'll have to prove that he really loves him first, which he sets out to do with a vengeance.

If you like short stories, little impressions of interesting people, and if you enjoy reading about the love between two unusual men, then you will probably enjoy this short story. It certainly made me smile! show less

Very good anthology about feline shapeshifters. And, unlike many shapeshifter novels, here the cat state is the norm, not the human one! In "Outcast," Anneal is human banished by his people for his unnatural prediliction (homosexuality). He becomes lost in the mountains right before a snow storm, but finds what he thinks is an empty cave. It's actually the den of Ferris, a very special mountain lion. In "The Beast Within," Lee is the alpha of his pride, and he takes Rex in, making him his show more lover. When family turns against them, they face hard choices. Will their love destroy their placce in the pride? Good stories, though not deep, with explicit M/M sex. show less
