BURNING UP

Romance Anthology | Romance Paranormal

Four authors each contribute a story that brings the reader into a special world, and entertains them all the way through to the end. From steampunk to vampires, this book has something for everyone.

In Whisper of Sin, we are treated to Ria and Emmet's story. Ria is a great heroine who is saved by shifter Emmet. The two have a wonderful chemistry, and watching them deal with it made for an enjoyable story.

Blood and Roses takes the reader back to the days when chivalry ruled the world. Raniero is a vampire who is sent on a quest which leads him to Amaris, a woman in need of help. It seems that they have an common enemy. The wizard he has been sent to see is holding her sister hostage. As the two learn to trust each other they must also deal with their romantic feelings. Amaris has good reason to be wary, as does Raniero, but hopefully they will see the future not their past. I enjoyed this story the most. I am a big fan of knights and chivalry and this one did not disappoint.

Shifting Sea takes us back in time to meet John Harris, a soldier who inherits some property. When he finds a woman on his property, he feels an instant attraction though he senses that she is different. Little does he know just how different. This story was a sweet tale of finding love where you least expect it.

With Where there be Monsters, the reader is introduced to steampunk. I am not a big fan of this genre, but I did enjoy this story. It was an interesting and, at times, tugged at my heartstrings. Eben and Ivy have strong chemistry and make a great couple.

BURNING UP is a good collection that introduces readers to many different authors and genres. It is a nice way to get to know some authors you may not know or have been waiting to try. If you are a reader that enjoys paranormal romance, you should definitely check this one out.
