Tied with a Bow

October 15, 2011

Four talented romance authors team up with lively novellas that put a seductive, supernatural spin on the holidays. A fallen angel meets a woman he saved from death as a child in Virginia Kantra's "Upon a Midnight Clear," the Regency-set prequel to her "Children of the Sea" series. In a world filled with half-human vampires (ventala), demons, muses, archangels, and assorted folk, a young journalist rescues a time traveler and is plunged into a miraculous adventure in Kimberly Frost's "First Light," a novella that launches her new paranormal series. Unaccustomed to interacting with humans, a member of the Lupi spends the holidays with his mate's human Wiccan family with interesting results in Eileen Wilks's "Human Error." A Coyote Breed enforcer must claim his mate when her actions put her in danger in Leigh's latest addition to her popular "Breed" series, "An Inconvenient Mate." VERDICT This sizzling quartet of holiday-linked erotic paranormal romances is just the thing to warm up a wintry night; perfect for readers who like their reading with a sexy, otherworldly edge.
