My Personal Review for Nightshift by Kate Douglas, Lynn LaFleur and Crystal Jordan


 My personal review for Nightshift anthology with stories by Kate Douglas, who introduces her readers into a new sci-fi series she is creating; Crystal Jordan who delivers a hot story that will leave you squirming in your chair and Lynn LaFleur delivers a story about one wrong number that delivers to one man his mate.

My Rating for Nightshift: 3.5 Stars

 Find Nightshift HERE

Three stories that will heat up your cold winter’s night in NIGHT SHIFT as three couples find hot molten desire as they find love with the unlikeliest of people.

Kate Douglas kicks things off in ‘Dream Catcher’. A woman stirs Mac’s dreams like never before. Is she a figment of his imagination? He has no idea. All he knows is she is the only one who can give him the pleasure he craves. Zianne needs Mac to help free her people. Can she convince this human man to let himself believe in her and the love they share?

Kate Douglas delivers a beginning into what I hope will become a series for th is author. Dream Catcher is an interesting concept, had tight writing and a fast moving storyline that sucks you in. I loved the sparks that flew between Zianne and Mac plus I am eager to see if more will be set in this fascinating world that Ms. Douglas created.

Crystal Jordan’s ‘Taken Between’ tells a tale of a woman who lives to protect her queen but only one man can stir her desires to the boiling point-the King’s brother. Can these two find a way to have their forever love while averting a tragedy?

Crystal Jordon delivers a really intriguing story of a royal guard who is also a shape-shifter. Very intriguing, lots of smoking hot sex and the main characters kept me eager for more. Tight writing, fast moving storyline and a simmering sexual tension you know is about to explode at the least likely moment. All make Taken Between a perfect story in my opinion.

Finally, Lynn LaFleur delivers ‘The Right Number’, in which a wrong number produces something unexpected-a mate for Jay. Getting to know Roni, Jay knows he found the one woman meant to be his. Roni is feisty, independent and a shifter like himself. Can these two move forward to an everlasting love when a tragedy befalls Jay that makes him doubt Roni’s motives?

I loved this story. It had a little mystery, lots of sexual tension and to die for hero-Jay-who pushed all my buttons, in a good way. The author does a really good job in creating the perfect blend of romance, paranormal and mystery that made me want to know more. I am really hoping the author comes back to this story as I am eager to see some of the secondary characters get their own stories.

These three hot stories will definitely heat you right up. I can attest you will definitely need a cold shower after reading this book or maybe jumping the significant other as well. NIGHTSHIFT is a trio of gems that had me eager for more and some ice as well—just to cool off. Each story is hot in its own right but put them all together and you got scorching meltdown. Each story delivers some wonderful characters that had me intrigued, hot, scorching sex scenes that will make you think the book is on fire and a storyline I wished was longer. Each author delivers a wonderful mix of sex, love, mystery and romance all wrapped in a bow. I am hoping these three authors get together again and write another anthology filled with unique tales that will leave you panting.

Thanks Dawn, and just to satisfy your curiosity, yes--Dream Catcher launches my new Aphrodisia series, Dream Catchers. The first book, Dream Bound, releases in July and the story takes place in the present, twenty years after the novella you just read. Zianne has disappeared into the future, and Mac has spent twenty years developing the technology to rescue her and the last of her kind. I just finished copy edits on Dream Bound and I'm half way through the next book, Dream Unchained, which will be out next November.

So glad you enjoyed the stories!
