Enforcer by Angela Knight is part of the Time Hunters series. This is the third and possibly final story in this series. I will admit that I didn't finish it. It has been so long since I read the other stories in the series, and for some reason the writing just didn't speak to me. Typically I am a huge fan of Angela Knight. She has been a guaranteed go-to read for years. Maybe I just need to find and reread the first two books again, but as of right now, eh. I just don't care to even see how it ends. What a sad end to a series that started strong.Perfect Mate by Jennifer Ashley is #4.5 in the Shifters Unbound series. This is not the first novella in the Shifters Unbound series either. There are 3 other novellas and 4 full length novels currently out. Each new story builds on a secondary character from a previous book. And whether full length or novella, the main story arc keeps moving along. This particular story was about a previously introduced female bear finding her mate. As I have said before, I just really like bear shifter stories and this one is great addition to both the series and my love of bear shifters.
Jean Johnson gives us The Hunter's Cabin, part of her free online Vulland Chronicles series. I am not sure where exactly this story falls in the series, but if you are interested in reading the rest of it, please go to http://www.jeanjohnson.net/Vulland.html for more information. This story was very interesting and is of the Victorian meets magic variety. It is a great cross between Urban Fantasy and Steam Punk, two great genres that match up very well together in this short introduction to Miss Vielle, Mr. Kierseith and the Vulland Chronicles. I will be reading the rest of the story, you should check them out as well.
No Surprise More Magical is part of Hanna Martine's The Elementals series. This is an author I had not heard of before. But this is why I love Anthologies. Like small, tasty packages of goodness that can introduce you to new favorite authors. This short story comes after the first two books in the series. We are introduced to two characters who each for there own reasons, have given the other a chance to be free. Neither realizing that the other returns their own feelings. We see each characters point of view and I was left shaking my head about how they seriously misunderstood the others feelings. Especially for two people who have been friends as long as they have. This was a nice introduction to the world created by Ms. Martine, and has left me wanting to find out more. 2 thumbs up, nice job!
I am giving this book 3 stars on Goodreads. Although disappointed by the first story, the other three made up for it and gave me a new series and new author to start reading. Overall, a worthwhile read.
