My Review: 4 Stars, 3 FlamesAfter reading the first episode, I was dyin' here! The stories left me hanging in the worst way, with all sorts of unanswered questions and issues. I know that these books are more like a serial, with new installments frequently but you know how I hate cliffhangers and these take the term cliffhanger to a whole. new. realm.! Of course, as I began readingRomantic Tales: Bedtime Stories Episode Two (Romantic Tales: Bedtime Stories-Season 1), many of my questions were answered, only to have a few chapters worth of action and then I was left hanging again for Episode 3(throws her hands up). Of course, the writing is quite good in both of the first two editions with characters that are memorable. All three series were without a doubt, interesting and kept my attention. These authors were new to me but now I know three more ladies to be on the lookout for!CraveThis is my favorite of the three story lines. Werewolves were such a pleasant surprise and Cass? Come on, can you really blame Harper for being attracted to him? I have no trouble visualizing him - the Southern Gentleman for New Orleans in the late 1800's translating over to being a sexy werewolf and the lead singer. Quick smile, wavy hair, and the eyes.... I have no real critique of this one. It was well paced and easy to follow. So far it is all talk in the sexual department but I imagine that may just change soon. I just cannot wait for the next series to be released!!The Genesis ProjectThis storyline is pretty unique. I really love Xander but Adam is up to something, I just can't quite put my finger on it yet. I can't decide if he is attracted to Gen as well as Xander or what. He has been pretty clear that he wants her to stay far away from Xander though so what is that all about? I need answers people! Okay I am calm and reasonable again now.;) This one is much harder to bridge the wait times between series and would perhaps be better served as a regular novel. Of course,while there has been no actual sex in this book either, there have been plenty of steamy descriptions and wagging tongues. Gee, I wonder where all of this will lead? Guess we will just have to wait to find out.;)The GetawayI am having trouble with this one. I am not really feeling it I guess and am struggling to get into it. I like Mike and Juliet, but I thought it was really sad that she needed Xanax to cope...not that I couldn't understand why though. As for intimacy, we had that show up in this part of the series. It was quick and hot and heavy for teenagers though nothing to make most adults blush. I am in hopes that the next section will bring more understanding and clarity of the direction of the storyline and that I will enjoy it more.Overall, I am enjoying the installments. I am sure that as the weeks go along, we will all grasp the purpose or point of them better. Now, if we can just move the process along a little more quickly for some than others. lolNOTE: I received this book in exchange for my unbiased and honest review. All opinions are 100% my own.
