Cindy (USA: NV) (2009/06/22):
Nice read-once. Multi-author anthology with the three stories on the theme of 'fated' mates. All of them are mildly futuristic, other planets and spaceships appear, but generally have little to do with the story. Love Me Tomorrow By Sally Painter is the exception - Earth was invaded by alien lizard-like creatures who are the ultimate 'consumers' and have been consuming Earth's natural resources ever since. The remnants of the human population are hiding underground. On a foray aboveground the heroine captures the hero, a psychic humanoid alien, and takes him back underground to be interrogated. He is overjoyed since he has found his Kismet, soul mate, and is busy making sure she feels it too. Through a series of sadly unbelievable events they have a lot of hot sexy mind melds plus lots of hot sex and they save the world. Charlotte Boyett-Compo's Secrets of the Wind mixes new and old; it starts in an futuristic city complete with hovercraft hot rods and ends up in a kingdom where they choose to ride horses instead. Heroine is ostensibly hired as a bodyguard for the Prince by the Queen but is actually 'bait' to get her son to wed rather than just bed... The author throws in a lot of weirdly spelled words which imply words in current use such as Caitliceachs/Catholics, Protastnuach/Protestant and dochtuir/doctor. In Warlord's Destiny By Delilah Devlin the barbarian prince was promised the fair flower of the royal house as the price for saving the kingdom. But her family plays 'bait and switch' by marrying him off to the OTHER princess. Of course he likes her MUCH better, the curves her people sneered at as chunky he recognizes as very, very sexy! The best part was the 'First Bedding' which ended up involving four other very limber people [at least one of which swung both ways] and a VERY large bed.
