Wow. First let me say that of all the authors listed, I was only familiar with Rosanna Leo's work. So it was great reading stories from authors I was passingly familiar with but had not really read their work before. I'm one of those annoying readers who can guess who the bad guy is halfway through a book, which is why I don't read mystery or thrillers very often. Story after story, this anthology kept surprising me. I made the mistake of starting it when I went to bed. I say mistake because I could not put it down.

Familiar only with Rosanna Leo's romance work, I was totally unprepared for what I read. Whereas I found Marianne to be a very sad character, possibly in need of grief therapy, just looking for something or someone to connect with, my feelings on Edward were the complete opposite. I found Edward sweet with a healthy dose of creepy. Who knew Leo's mind could be so dark and creepy? I love it!
