Ever After Anthology by Carrie Ann Ryan, Lia Davis, Leia Shaw, Rebecca Royce and Marie Harte

[Eva Millien]

This is a great anthology of five paranormal stories by Carrie Ann Ryan, Rebecca Royce, Lia Davis, and Marie Hart.

In His Choice, a Dante’s Circle story, Fawkes one of Lucifer’s sons has a life decision to make. Meeting his mate, Leslie, a traumatized submissive wolf could make all the difference in the world to him.  There was a couple of misses in the dialogue that I stumbled over, but they were minor and did not take away from this unique world that the author has created. 

In Beasts of Burden, a standalone story,  Eira, a Valkyrie, is attacked at a gathering of the gods and goddesses and is rescued by her mates, Hall and Avarr, battlecats that protect Freya.  There is lots of hot and steamy sex in this mythological world created by Marie Harte with unique twists that keep the reader well engaged and entertained.

In Alpha Rising, a Fallen Alpha story, Rebecca Royce introduces a new world of shifters as the Alpha of the Pennsylvania Pack meets his mate, Lilliana, while trying to negotiate peace with the alpha of another pack. Along with the hot scenes, this story has lots of tension and suspense that keeps the reader intrigued.

In A Rebel’s Heart, a story in the Ashwood Falls series, the reader is once again drawn deeper into the drama of this shifter town.  The Onyx Pack’s attacks have caused mayhem and more damage with their attacks than even they know as Nevan & Graham’s mom, Sarah is attacked and an old friend, Damian shows up to protect her.   

In Destined for Eden, a Shadows of Destiny story, Lia Davis has once again created a unique paranormal world that entertains the reader with its magical drama, action and suspense. 

Each of these stories had strong and bewitching main characters and secondary characters. Although they could have been longer, the stories and worlds created by the authors are imaginative and entertaining. And I am looking forward to reading more by each of these authors.
