Review # 1 was written on 2011-12-19 00:00:00 Cody Wilson I picked this up because it was cheap and I've read stories by Cynthia Eden before. I've liked Eden's other series but her story here was a just sexfest - and very short on story. I am hero-centric and the one here didn't grab me. But I was totally unprepared for the sensuality level of the stories.

The last, Denise Rossetti's Coming on Strong, is a Kaminski Family story and is a loose sequel to her Come Howling from Ellora's Cavemen: Seasons of Seduction I [it can certainly be read alone but I found the other one delightful also.:] The heroine thinks she's weird until her cousin let's her in on the fact their WHOLE family is weird...
