Reading Anthologies are a great way to discover new authors. 6 of these authors are new to me, and I am so excited to read more from them!!
Each of these stories are completely different.
Heroes come in many different shapes and forms and in these stories you get several varieties.
heroes ~ shifters ~ ghosts
In all honesty I had no clue what I was getting myself into!
Christine Zolendz is one of my favorite authors. She said she was writing a story for an anthology raising money for Wounded Warriors and I didn't hear or read any further.
Sign me up, I said!
So when I started the first story and it was about actual villains vs superheros,
I thought... oh.. duh....I get it... CAPE! hee hee

This was my first time reading anything from Sunniva Dee.
This story has a bit of a mysterious touch to it and it also ends on a cliffy!

This story was a very quick one and more of an everyday hero rather than an actual cape wearing one.

Villain by Cheryl McIntyre:
How can you tell a hero from a villain?
If you’re Ember Willis and the villain is Lanely Frost, you can’t.
How can you tell a superhero from a delusional young woman?
If you’re Lanely Frost and the woman is Ember Willis, you don’t care.
For both, finding the balance between right and wrong and love and lust are not the only battles they’ll face.
REVIEW
I enjoyed this read very much. I loved the funny, easy going banter between the two. Their chemistry was hot and it was an awesome little story.
