Bertrice Small
“Lust's Leading Lady.” —Romantic Times
Marguerite Abbott, the most enchanting courtesan at the most elegant brothel in Paris, has lost her heart to no man…until an irresistible visitor from New Orleans teaches her the true meaning of Eros' delights.
Susan Johnson
“One of the best!” —Romantic Times
A soaking downpour…a gamekeeper's remote hut…a night of unforgettable passion—vivid memories shockingly reawakened at the formal introduction of smolderingly handsome Prince Radovsky to his new stepsister, the fiery Lady Darlington…
And introducing…Nikki Donovan
When Lord Blackhurst spies the alluring Esmay picking wildflowers in the forest, he knows he must make her his…but how can he break the terrible curse that prevents an exquisite beauty from knowing the ecstasy of being in his arms?
And Liz Madison
Victoria Woodville is any man's equal. Fabled knight Stephen de Burgh realizes this as he helps her to victory during a siege. She's a woman of unparalleled appeal who inflames his desires as never before, igniting a rapturous alliance as they face danger and betrayal from a formidable enemy.
Bertrice Small is the author of over twenty-four novels of historical romance. She is a New York Times bestseller, and the recipient of numerous awards. In keeping with her professions, Bertrice Small lives in the oldest English-speaking town in the state of New York, which was founded in 1640. And because she believes in happy endings, she's been married to the same man, her hero, George, for thirty-six years.
Susan Johnson, award-winning author of nationally bestselling novels, lives in the country near North Branch, Minnesota. A former art historian, she considers the life of a writer the best of all possible worlds. Researching her novels takes her to past and distant places, and bringing characters to life allows her imagination full rein. But perhaps most important…writing stories is fun.
Nikki Donovan is the pseudonym of a multi-published historical romance author.
Liz Madison graduated from the University of Wisconsin with a double major in journalism and French, and worked as an anchor and reporter for a local radio station before turning her talents to romance writing.

January 06, 2003: This latest installment in the series does not live up to the promise of the first two-Captivated and Fascinated. Although I enjoyed the Beatrice Small and Susan Johnson sections, the other two writers were weak. There was a complete breakdown in eroticism and interesting storyline in the second part of the book. I skimmed through the Donovan and Madison sections because frankly they were boring. I miss Thea Devine and Robin Schone. What a waste. Buy the book, but be forewarned of the less than stellar caliber.

September 14, 2002: Bertrice Small has been recommended to me several times as a great writer of erotic romance. I am sad to say that I was extremely disappointed in her story in this book. I felt that it was closer to pornography than romance. The last two stories in the book were much better, especially the Liz Madison story. Bertrice and Susan Johnson seemed to be trying to see who could use the F word more often than the other. All in all, especially considering the cost of a book of this type, I was not happy with this purchase.
