I love the short stories in the Shivers line. They never fail to give me just the right amount of scary smuttastic reads I am looking for. Rising Green is a good example of a story you just wouldn't expect to be hot, but is. When I first heard about the plot, I thought of that movie where the alien goes around impregnating women and watching them blow up. Not sexy. This is. lol.When Sage escapes the confines of the base to get away from the testosterone overload, she encounters a strange plant that puffs a cloud of spores all over her, sending her into unconsciousness. When she wakes, it is to the sensual ministrations of a very attentive plant. It made me wish I had one of those instead of the half dead ficus in my living room, let me tell you! This is a very naughty plant and it takes Sage places no ordinary houseplant would ever dream of. (darn). Getting back to the base, the "ice queen" has morphed into a sexual tigress and no man is safe.This story was hot and the horror part of it was a little like Alien, but hotter. Loved it and hope there are more to come.5/5
