Strangers in the Night

Summary: Lots-a FUN!!
Review: I thought this was a wonderful small collection of short stores. For one, I absolutely love Anne Stuart, and for two, dark and sensual gothic romances that are well-written are fabulous reads! I thought Anne Stuart's "Dark Journey" was wonderful. It was dark and sinister and the connection between Laura and Alex was just radiant. The plot was the best part, really, and her writing and use of words was very, very good. Now I thought Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's "Catching Dreams" was pretty good. It was not as good as the other two stories, however, but it was good. The beginning was captivating but as the story goes on, I think that maybe it could have used a little more spunk. But for the most part, the story was good and fun to read and the characters are rich and witty. "Beyond Twilight" by Maggie Shayne I think was my favorite. That is very hard for me to say because I have always been a HUGE Anne Stuart fan, but Ms. Shayne's short story was fabulous. Cuyler's sense of humor was so much fun as she strived to keep from seeing the dark side of things. My heart went out to her so many times in this story. She and Ramsey (though he was sent to destroy her) compliment each other so well with their personalities and connection. I was sad when this story ended. I would have been so happy had the story been a full novel. 5 Stars for "Beyond Twilight." All in all, these three authors are very, very talented, and so very much fun. They really add to the characters of their stories and makes it hard for a reader not to love them. This book is HIGHLY recommended!

Review: I wasn't expecting these type of stories at all, I thought they would just be romances. I thought Dark Journey was the best, even though I had left it till last, because the premise sounded the worst. The other two stories didn't really impress me at all

Summary: 4 stars for the first, 2 for the others.

Summary: DARK JOURNEY by Anne Stuart is an incredible novella!
Review: Recently I dug out STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT and re-read Anne Stuart's novella 'Dark Journey.' It was every bit as good as I remembered it! I am often bitterly disappointed in my favorite authors' contributions to anthologies, but Ms. Stuart delivers with a wallop! Death and desire as only she can write it! If you loved the movie DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY, you HAVE to read 'Dark Journey.' It is well worth the price of the book for that story alone

Summary: This is the perfect book to read for Halloween week!
Review: Sometimes, after working all day, I need quick stories to read. This book is perfect for those occasions. The stories by all three authors have just the right amount of scares and romance! Dark Journey, by Anne Stuart is probably the best of the 3, simply because of originality. Only the talented authors could write a story about death, and make it a romance. Read this book anytime, for scares, vampires, and even a "romantic" grim reaper!
