What happens when fate calls your name? Especially, if that fate includes a strikingly handsome stranger, who just happens to be avampire. Patrick never thought he'd meet his soul mate when he'd agreed to go out to a club with his friend. It was a fatigued scene, and no one seemed worth his attention. That is, until he tried to depart, but found himself unable to move once he saw the gorgeous stranger approach him. He wasn't even gay. What was happening to him? Justin hated the club scene too. Yet, that night, he felt compelled to go there, and once he saw Patrick, he couldn't leave his side

Samuel has one goal in life: mend his broken core. What does he not want? A bossy, overprotective, possessive, teasing dragon sticking his nose in business that is not his. Even if he is sexy and supports Samuel on his quest to identify the lost Sousa Mage Clan. Utterly beside the point. He does not need a dragon boyfriend/girlfriend. (Un)fortunately, Dimitri disagrees.

This compilation, which features several of the biggest stars in the M/M paranormal love affair firmament, is a deep trove of delights for fans, but also an object lesson in why diamonds require cutters. The opener, Rhys Ford’s “Dim Sum Asylum,” which crackles with force, packs a wallop that at times becomes a whimper. Price’s own “Everyone’s Afraid of Clowns,” from her Psycop universe, is an entertaining string of scenes that ultimately do not coalesce into a plot. K.J. Charles riffs on a quirky bit of 19th-century research (and a little Dickens too) in “A Homosexual Trade,” but the story draws a troubling analogy. There are uncomplicated delights too: Charlie Cochet’s shape-shifter fantasy, “The Soldati Prince,” is a fluffy, hyperbolic exploration of shifter pack clichés, and Lou Harper’s “One Hex Too Many” is full of sly fun. There are pleasures aplenty here, along with a few reminders of the value of good modifying. [em](BookLife) [/em]
