4.0 out of 5 stars Anthology, Aug 19 2005
This review is from: Charming the Snake (Paperback)
I have to say I was a little hesitant to purchase this book, at first. I'm not an anthology reader. I prefer to sink my teeth into a good book and hang on for the long haul with the characters. But, that said, I am a HUGE MJD fan, so I had to have it. MaryJanice Davidson's SAVAGE SCAVENGE was a fun albeit short story. I wish there had been more, but SAVAGE SCAVENGE was a delectable read. SEDUCING THE SAINT, truly the meat of the anthology, is written by a new author to me, Melissa Schroeder. I'd not seen her work before, but I will be looking now. This mouth-watering yummy short grabbed my attention. Humor, action, and sensuality all blended together into a perfect mix in SEDUCING THE SAINT. CARTE BLANCHE by Camille Anthony rounded out this power-packed anthology offered by another newcomer I'd not head of Loose Id, LLC. Ms. Anthony's characters Chastity and Dare were very unique and enthralling. All in all, I truly enjoyed this anthology and will not be hesitant to purchase another in the future. If you enjoy short stories with strong characters, lots of laughs, well then, this is the compilation for you!

3.0 out of 5 stars Futruristic Anthology!, May 22 2005
By Kristi Ahlers - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Charming the Snake (Paperback)
Ms. Davidson is the headline on this futuristic anthology that was entertaining. Still, with this said, Ms. Davidson's contributuion was shorter than short...was a continuation to a story that I haven't read...and was unsatisfiying for this reader.

Melissa Schroeder's "Seducing the Saint" was a story about two people getting a chance to get it right the second time around...while looking for Libby's dad who is looking for the legend of the Snake King. This trip though will be more than either Libby or Brady dreamed it could be.

Camille Anthony's story "Carte Blanche" is a debut effort and my favorite out of the three. Chastity lives a life of privilage and has to marry. She won't go quietly giving her heart to any man. But than again Darian isn't just "any man."

Again this was an entertaining read. My only complaint...Ms. Davidson's read was less than satisfying. In fact it was the shortes of the three. All three offer fun futuristic backdrops, and of course plenty of steamy chemistry between the main characters. Overall, I wouldn't buy this book simply because of the headline author...but I wouldn't recommend that you skip it either. Bottom line. This is an easy read that is portable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Melissa Schroeder's story makes this book, July 3 2005
By C. Woolf - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Charming the Snake (Paperback)
Seducing the Saint by Melissa Schroeder is the only reason to buy this book. Her story has heart and soul. The characters are 3 dimensional and wonderfully quirky. Saint and Libby are old friends and old lovers. Libby needs Saint to help find her father who has disappeared searching for a famous emerald. The journey takes them to another planet, they meet strange people with even stranger customs. They learn about the people they are now rather than the people they were, along the way and discover that the old feelings are still there. The story was hot but still had heart.

The story by Mary Janice Davidson was very unsatisfying. It was too short, only 49 pages. It has a beginning and an end, but no middle, nothing in it to make us care about the characters. It was a continuation of one of her previous stories but one I hadn't read, so I could not really relate or get into this one before it was over.

Camille Anthony's story was also unsatisfying to this reader. I like hot reads, but I like them to have a story too. This one was mostly just sex with little story. The end ties things up, but you are told what every thing was about rather than seeing it happen. The only thing we saw was the sex and after the first couple times, it was old. I wanted to know the characters and wasn't given the chance.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sexy, fun read., Jun 22 2005
By Jeanine Daynes - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Charming the Snake (Paperback)
If you're like me and you bought the book based on MaryJanice Davidson's name, you've got a treat in store, because the other two reads are just as much fun. I've been a fan of MJ's writing for years so, of course, this was an auto-buy for me. The big surprise was finding out that I liked the other two stories just as much.

Melissa Schroeder writes with a light hand and a deceptively smooth style. You're laughing along with the heroine and sympathizing with her urge to crown Brady so much that the heat sneaks up on you. When she does let loose with a love scene -- look out.

Camille Anthony's story was a total blast, too. Hot, sexy and bristling with energy. Do yourself a favor and pick up Charming the Snake for the Davidson, but stay for the Schroeder and the Anthony.
