| "New Year’s
Bites” by Cynthia Eden
Leaving work on
New Year’s Eve to go to her friend’s party, Anna Summers is
attacked. She is not sure what attacked her but Anna is sure
she was rescued by tall, sexy Jon York. The man she has been
lusting after for months. The bite she received from the
attack is changing her body. She is now more aware of the
world around her.
The attraction
between Anna and Jon York makes “New Year’s Bites” a steamy
look at being bitten. Ms. Eden has written a hot tale of sex
and animal attraction. The added suspense of Anna being
stalked by a werewolf added depth to the tale.
"Night Resolution”s by
Diana Mercury
Chantal felt
the house party would be an excellent opportunity to seduce
her lover Billy. Too bad it doesn’t seem to be working as well
as she wished. The house party had undercurrents of sex and
intrigue that just do not seem to make sense.
“Night
Resolutions” was an interesting tale where a woman found out
exactly where her life and her relationship were heading. It
had interesting twists and turns and did not end where you
expected it to end. A few spots were a bit rough but still an
imaginative tale.
“Snow Blind” by Virginia
Reede
Gerry and Jules
have been good friends for years. The New Year’s weekend spent
at the cabin Jules gets for them and their dates is a time for
the couples to bond and get to know and appreciate each other.
Gerry and Jules end up taking their relationship to the next
level.
I found “Snow
Blind” to be an intriguing tale of two people realizing they
don’t know each other as well as they could. The sex scenes
between Gerry and Jules were sultry and hot. That said having
two couples detracted from the beauty of the story as it
turned the story petty at times. All in all, “Snow Blind” was
a delightful tale.
“Coming on Strong” by
Denise Rossetti
Gina McBride
has lived her life knowing she is different. She becomes more
and more dragon-like the more turned on she gets. Over time
she has learned to accept herself even if she is not happy
with herself. Sexy, smart Sam Jones brings out the beast in
Gina. It thrills her even as it scares her.
I found “Coming
on Strong” to be an irresistible and intriguing story of a
woman finding herself and what she is capable of in a unique
and compelling way. “Coming on Strong” had me fanning myself
as I read it and wishing that it were a longer story as I did
not want it to end.
A Red Hot New
Year
is a hot anthology that keeps the reader engrossed from the
first story to the last. I found myself reading it from
beginning to end as I did not want to and could not put it
down.
