Dates From Hell

UNDEAD IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD & EVIL by Kim Harrison: Ivy Tamwood is a cop -- she's also a living vampire able to live in sunlight until she "dies." She wants to move up in her chosen career, but her boss, a vampire of the dead variety, is in her way. He's also trying to pin a murder on Tam. What's she to do, but take care of both problems at once?

THE CLAIRE SWITCH PROJECT by Lynsay Sands: Claire Beckett works in a top-secret laboratory for Kyle Lockhart, whom she's been in love with since high school. In a so- called accident, Claire is zapped with a ray that gives her the ability to look like anyone she wants -- with just a thought. She and her boss have to figure out what happened to her and how far it goes. While they're figuring out her problem, she wouldn't mind finding the key to his heart.

CHAOTIC by Kelley Armstrong: Hope is a half-demon whose power is to sense chaos and trouble on the way. While unknowingly working for a wizard's cabal, she hones in on thief Karl Marsten, a werewolf her cabal contact has been seeking. But who is she to believe -- her cabal contact, who misled her, or Karl, whom she's very attracted to? Is he really trustworthy, or are her hormones leading her in the wrong direction?

DEAD MAN DATING by Lori Handeland: When Kit tries a dating service, her date turns out to be Eric -- blonde, handsome...and deadly. While they're walking, he's shot, but instead of falling to the ground, he disappears. Chavez, the shooter, informs her that Eric is a demon, and that he's temporarily saved Kit from Eric. Knowing Eric has marked Kit, Chavez must keep her safe until he can figure out a way to destroy the demon for good. But can he keep from falling in love with her while he does it?

This was a great group of stories by four of my favorite authors, and I loved all of them. Each story is unique, although Harrison and Armstrong's novellas are installments in their continuing series. As usual, I wasn't completely satisfied with what I got because I always want more! I can't wait to read the next offerings by these authors. DATES FROM HELL is a delightful way to spend some leisure time, whether you have to read it one story at a time, or can sit and read it from cover to cover. A great read!
