Rated by buyers -
I agree with the only other reviewer at this time, that most of the stories fall far short of typical good, steamy anthologies.
Only the story of the ER doc and the Lifeguard was good, but I think it works only well as a short story.
All in all I would reccomend the very first 3 "Bad Boys"eries instead or "All Through The Night" which has the very first of 3 stories by Lori Foster (the second two are played out in "I Love Bad Boys" and "I Brake for Bad Boys")
Rated by buyers -
"Some Like It Hot" Lori Foster - Okay, personal gripe here; do all fictional Noras have to be so plain? I mean I'm an almost six foot tall redheaded Amazon and most Noras I know are just as off beat as I. Yet Nora Chilton is a BORINGLY shy sexually repressed widow who is seduced by the Doctor subsequent door. Weak plot, no steam, but the romance is believable.
"One Wilde Weekend" Janelle Dennison - This is the (excuse me while I laugh myself to death) story of a man who wants commitment and the woman who only wants hot wild-weasel sex from him. Pardon me again while I bust a gut. Dana and Alex work up some really hot sex but the romance is DOA, probably because this set up wouldn't even happen in Bizarro-land.
"Blue Crush" Erin McCarthy - A really imaginative tale that stands out in the genre for our hero Kyle is a lowly lifeguard and Sara, his fantasy woman trapped with him at the station during a storm is a heroic ER doctor. I defy anyone to NOT enjoy this, the romance is great, the sex is great and I would actually love to see this story fleshed out into a full romance novel some day.
"My Thief" MaryJanice Davidson - This story is missing the mark on humor, though it tries. It's still an enjoyably, if dis-jointed, a tale about a master thief Robin in a screwball dare game with her uncle that leads her to break into John's room for a little light-hearted intrigue and some hot sex. Still, it is so dis-jointed (scenery is never described, the motivations for characters other than "me horny" are never discussed) that I'd recommend some Tylenol before reading it, even if the characters carry off the plot without benefit of emotions or setting.
"Hot and Bothered" Kayla Perrin - Like many authors of the Essence and related "minority" driven lines there's too much focus on culture. Okay, so most romances are about white people but is there long dwelling on Anglo-Saxon traditions, wondering if you're Irish and he's Italian could it work out? Yeah, right. So if you're Cuban and he's Puerto Rican just chill out and enjoy the romance. Cultural issues sort of cloud the steam here and the romance is very slow to start between Trey and Jenna, soon-to-be ex spouses who fall in love over divorce papers.
"Murphy's Law" Morgan Leigh - Kat Murphy, too meek to confess her love to her boss, quits her job and to console herself goes to the beach. Her boss Sam Parrish follows and there on the beach they shed their buttoned-up personas for summer lover identities. The sex is mostly predictable but the plot is intriguing, the romance I would have to rate as "Meh" - neither good nor bad.
