BLURB

Good things always come in threes—and this paranormal romance anthology featuring steamy stories from New York Times bestselling authors Kresley Cole, Larissa Ione, and Gena Showalter is no exception!

Get ready for a collection chock full of vamps, demons, aliens, and plenty of sizzle!

In Kresley Cole’s celebrated story “The Warlord Wants Forever,” the first in her scorching Immortals After Dark series, vampire warlord Nikolai Wroth will stop at nothing to claim his Bride, the one woman who can make his heart beat again. But can beautiful Myst the Coveted accept an enemy vampire as her own?

Tehya has spent the last twelve years as an accidental wolf, but is truly a vampire at heart. When she gets injured, Lobo sneaks her inside MoonBound’s headquarters and nurses her back to health…with potentially deadly consequences. Desire collides with danger in “Forsaken by Night,” a MoonBound Clan novella from Larissa Ione!

In Gena Showalter’s Otherworld Assassins novella, Dark Swan, Lilica Swan isn’t quite human or otherworlder; she is the best—and worst—of both. She is willing to do whatever proves necessary to save her sister from the seductive and deadly Alien Investigation and Removal agent, Dallas Gutierrez, even bond her life to his…effectively wedding him. But without consummation, the bond will fade. Can Dallas resist his insatiable desire for the powerful beauty? Or will she lead to his ultimate downfall?

Review for The Warlord Wants Forever — Kresley Cole
 
The story first appeared in an anthology "Playing Easy to Get". This is the first installment of Immortal After Dark. Though, this story has been rewrited. There aren't too much changes. But I have to say I like this version better than the original.

This story centers around Nikolai Wroth—the ruthless warlord vampire—and Myst—the bloodthristy Valkyrie. Their first meeting is far from romantic. But Myst somehow found this warlord *cough*sexy*cough*. And who knows, that she's his Bride—his mate for life. So, in this series, vampires are usually cruel. The 'good' vampire clan is the human-turned-vampires, but they are called abomination of the immortal world, since no human should know the secret of immortal. And the epic journey I ever read is Nik trying to win Myst and prove that he's not cruel. Will he success?

I love the predestined-mate concept in this book. Everything seems so certain but there is no guarantee. And what I always love from Kresley Cole is her too-good sense of humor and wild imagination which are projected into her easthetic words (what do I say actually?). Her writing always has 'soul'. If you read enough of her book, you'll know her writing style just by reading a few sentence of her work. That's why I love her and nominated her as my fav-all-time author. Her works are amazing. And I'm not saying it because I'm her fan. I AM her fan. But I wasn't, when I read this book.

Cole has big success in combining the real place and imaginary setting. And as the reader, I always feel that I was there. I even believe some places really exist even when she said they aren't. Considering I read it a year ago and still remember every scenes, this book must be that good. Okay, at least for me. Then there always are sexy alpha males, which, ofc my fav part of her books (every book which contains dominan males will be my fav).

So, you're a PNR fan? You certainly have to read this book!
