I could review each short story individually, but they'd all merit roughly the same response: awful. They were raunchy and juvenile, reading as if they were thrown together in a weekend without any serious editing. A fringe of mystery as an excuse for sex scenes, mostly, with shallow characters and weak, rushed plots. Hardly worth the time it took to read. I expected better from these authors. Do yourself a favor and pick up Davidson's 'Undead' series instead.

Mary Janice Davidson is a hit or miss author with me and this story most definitely MISSED. I couldn't deal with the character motivations. They just made no sense. Amy Garvey's story was okay...it wasn't predictable per se, but it also didn't pull me in. Jennifer Apodaca's story was by far the best. She engaged me and interested me in the plot. it was a BIT predictable but by FAR the best. Nancy Cohen is a mystery writer so I expected her story to be the best. It was the worst. There were continuity errors all over the place. The romance wasn't developed at all. This was one of the weakest and worst edited Bravas I've read.

I couldn't even get through the first story in this book. The writing was so horrible and I could not follow the plot at all. I moved on to the next but it was just as bad as the first. Unfortunately this was the first book I had read by any of these authors so I'm not sure if I'll try one of their novels again.
