A romance anthology compiled to raise funds to aid the New
Jersey community blasted by Hurricane Sandy, this is a
varying and fun set of stories set in New York. The
authors proclaim WE LOVE NEW YORK.
It's hard to pick out just a couple, but Returning To My
Senses by Karen Taylor tells movingly of a girl who
abandons her usual pattern of dining in Manhattan after
September eleventh, choosing instead to take turns with her
girlfriend to pick a neighbourhood to explore, sampling
Russian food, Egyptian, Indian and the many other cultures
of her city.
Other tales in this book for broadminded adults include a
paranormal vampire romance, a wolf shifter romance and more
traditional boy-meets-girl stories. And a boy meets boy
story by Adam Carpenter, In A City of Eight Million People,
which brings two young people together and then separates
them, reminding us of the unlikelihood of their meeting
again among such a crowd.
WE LOVE NEW YORK is a short collection, edited by Trinity
Blacio and
Lori Perkins, and could be read by dipping into it on the
subway or over lunch break, a good way to get familiar with
New York and help the New Jersey shore community.
We LOVE New York: A Romance Anthology to Raise Funds for
Hurricane Sandy Relief was conceived of by
best–selling erotic romance author Trinity Blacio as
she watched the devastation pounding the City that Never
Sleeps. And she wanted to do something for the city that
has inspired so many love stories, and made so many people
fall in love with her. She teamed up with Lori Perkins,
the
Publisher of Riverdale Avenue Books, and an
award–wining anthologist, to create a way to give
back and rebuild. In these pages you'll find love
