The three stories were ok...but just ok. ( )

"Fur and Phobias" by Julia Talbot has a therapist referring a dog-phobic patient to a kennel owner (and his partner/lover)... who happen to be werewolves.

It's a fluffy little story with no more depth than a puddle and the reader has to suspend a lot of disbelief, but I thought it was entertaining.

"Running with the Wolf" by Sean Michael is about two (male) born-werewolf lovers who encounter a confused bit-werewolf woman and decide to make her theirs.

There's very little sign of reality in this tale and only a tiny bit of excitement at the end. Overall, I didn't see any point to reading this one.

"For Life" by B.A. Tortuga opens with werewolf 'Mel' (Melody) paranoid about protecting herself and her ranch from vicious unknown enemies. Then her old friends/lovers Jamie and Brett show up to lend their aid.

The last is the best, in my opinion. Tortuga's characters have strong personalities and her writing has a lot of atmosphere that makes every scene vivid. There are moments of fun and moments of palpable stress. I really enjoyed this one. ( )
