Book Review: Fabulous Read!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Santa Claws
Alec Kilcurt is the most powerful werewolf in Europe. He is the laird of Kilcurt Holding and as the head of Scotland's werewolves he has been called to Boston to meet the new pack leader, the drooling infant daughter of the current leader. Miserable at being in the depressing, drizzly place, he quickly changes his mind about Boston when he smells ripe peaches coming from the Santa Claus standing on the street corner.
Giselle Smith can't believe it when the incredible man comes rushing up to her. What's more is that he seems to be suffering from the delusion that under the fat Santa suit she is some delectable treat. Agreeing to go to lunch with him, and praying he isn't a psycho, her plan backfires with a case of food poisoning. Good news for her that Alec is determined to nurse her back to health.
Santa Claws is a fantastic story about an incredibly appealing werewolf and his intended mate. I loved their bantering, and the sex is incredibly hot. This is a great combination of humor and intense heat!
Monster Love
Richard Will has been a vampire for over sixty years. Janet Lupo has been a werewolf for a lot less time than that. Both are alone. Richard has trouble finding a human woman to keep up with his passions, and Janet just has trouble finding a man, werewolf or human, to put up with her. When Richard spies Janet being followed by a group of unsavory men, he rushes to her rescue, not realizing that she doesn't need his help. Despite her repeated attempts to rebuff him, she finally accepts his invitation to dinner, only to be forced to cancel at the last minute. Richard doesn't take it nicely and decides that the only course of action is to kidnap her.
Richard and Janet, a.k.a. Dick and Jane, are an unbelievable couple, an unbelievably gut-busting, hilarious couple. Janet is a very prickly woman who is just short of mental, but she is incredibly appealing. Dick accepts her nature, and the two together are fantastic.
There's No Such Thing as a Werewolf
Drake Dragon is a very unique individual. He is a blind doctor that just happens to turn furry once a month. Crescent Muhn is not exactly normal either. She has been on the streets for years, and is currently running with a very bad crowd. After her friends make a failed attempt to attack Drake, one she refuses to take part in, she just wants to make sure the man is all right. He just wants to know why he can SEE her, and only her. Determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, and determined to get into the pants of the very appealing woman, Drake offers her a place to stay.
Drake and Crescent make a very fascinating couple. Crescent is an oddball creature, and Drake is just incredible in what he can do. I found myself breathlessly turning the pages to find out what would happen next.
A Fiend in Need
Antonia Wolfton has a new mission in life. Despite being a right line descendent of the She Wolf Rayet for the Cape Cod Pack, she knows she needs a change in her life. She is seen as an oddball in the pack: she can't change into a wolf. Instead she gets visions of the future. One such vision has made her determined to go to Minneapolis to help the queen, only she has never heard of any queen in Minneapolis. When she arrives, she is introduced to Betsy Taylor, the undead queen of the vampires. But it is the fiend, George that captures her attention. With a little luck, and a little blood, she just might be what it takes to get him to come out of his reticent shell.
I loved A Fiend in Need. The only new story in this anthology, it was a welcome reunion of characters from both series. Antonia will finally meet her match, and George will finally reveal his identity.
Dead and Loving It by MaryJanice Davidson is just simply mind-blowing! The characters are over-the-top and incredibly loveable. I found myself laughing out of control at her dialogue. The werewolves have a tendency to refer to us lowly humans as monkeys, and I didn't realize how many jokes could be made from such a simple reference. MaryJanice Davidson has always been one of my favorites, and this is certainly no exception. Although three of the novellas have been previously released, this should appeal to long-time fans as well as newbies to the words of MaryJanice Davidson. Perfectly blending characters from the Wyndham Werewolves world with the vampires of Queen Betsy, Dead and Loving It is a fabulous read.
