I've been reading titles from Entangled Publishing's many imprints since before they officially had imprints. While I've had plenty of reads since that I didn't like there have also been a lot of really good ones, especially under EDGE. While I haven't read all seven of the included titles there are three in here that I have read and very much enjoyed so I wanted to give potential purchasers some kind of hint at what great stories are inside. So please check out these snippets from the reviews I did for the three I have read:SHIELD OF FIRE by Boone Brux, "A protective hero who fights against his feelings with good reason and a heroine who starts out innocent but determined make for a good pairing. I actually disliked Ravyn at first but found that the stronger she became in her pursuit of Rhys, the more I admired her. I loved that even in other areas of her life she was brave enough to fight for what she felt was the best course of action instead of bowing out to Rhys' ideals. Overall, an okay fantasy romance and a decent place to start a series." (3 stars)SOUTH OF SURRENDER by Laura Kaye, "What really makes SOUTH OF SURRENDER a stand-out for fans of the big names in the paranormal romance genre is how well it carries a strong series plot thread while bringing Laney and Chrys to a HEA. There is an even stronger family element this time around and I just loved having everyone back again. SOUTH OF SURRENDER is very much a pivot-point for the series arc but Kaye pulls it off without losing the romantic storyline.  With Kaye's steamy scenes that scorch the page, refreshingly balanced adaptation of the mythological world, and wonderful characterization this is one book you should not miss." (5 stars)NIGHT WALKER by Lisa Kessler, "I never say this but Kessler's ability to weave a complex romantic story with a frightening villain is up there with J.R. Ward. Like an onion NIGHT WALKER is multi-layered. From Kate's recent break-up and Calisto's business to the nightmares she experiences and the secrets of how Calisto went from priest to 'vampire' all come together into a story that's meaty and spiced with steamy love scenes. By HEA our hero and heroine have well earned their happiness and overcome some big conflicts. On the whole this was a really refreshing 'vampire' romance. Using the term vampire loosely because Calisto himself doesn't consider Night Walkers to be vampires and the storyline explains why. Simply put this is something fresh in a somewhat overkilled genre and I think it will have wider appeal thanks to Kessler's exceptional writing." (5 stars)It bears mentioning that I've also read a couple of Nina Croft's other books and enjoyed them too. If you're a fan of any of these authors this is a boxed set that's not to miss if you're eager to try something similar. You may not love all seven but are sure to find at least one gem worth the steal of a price!
