Beyond the boundaries of the everyday is an unseen realm where anything you imagine is possible. Your demon lover is waiting for you in the shadows, ready to fulfill your secret wishes and most dangerous fantasies. Here passion has a face and form both titillating and terrifying—and love has teeth and claws. Get ready to give in to your craving for something exquisitely dark . . . and different.

Hotter Than Hell gathers together a baker's dozen of today's boldest and best authors of supernatural fiction and paranormal romance in a breathtaking anthology that blends black magic with red-hot desire. From the tantalizing tale of a conflicted psychic vampire driven by a powerful, savage love to the strange saga of a Greek warrior woman battling to save the world, these are stories outside the limits, as hypnotic as the full moon . . . and hotter than the sun.

Again, I had to get this because Lilith Saintcrow had a short story in it. I was glad to find all the short stories were really good.

This book contains 12 stories by different authors that have written a paranormal erotic/romantic story. This book will certainly heat your blood on those lonely cold nights.

Music Hath Charms by Tanya Huff is about a music producer trying to sign two sirens to her company. The twist is that these sirens are men.

Minotaur in Stone by Marjorie M. Liu is about a woman who lives in a library and when she dreams she is called into the labrynth with the minotaur. She is the only one that can free this misunderstood creature from his prison.

Demon Lover by Cheyenne McCray is about an Incubus who falls in love with a woman but must choose to take her soul or be banished to the Realm of the Dead for eternity.

Equinox by L.A. Banks is about the goddess Artemis returning to save the forests that are being destroyed by oil and timber giants but ends up breaking her vow with a man she couldn't resist.

Ride a Dark Horse by Susan Krinard. Think of a popular country song . . . Save a horse, ride a cowboy. A woman goes to a ranch to have a break and there meets a wild horse and a strange man.

To Die For by Keri Arthur is a story about a werewolf and a wolf shifter teamed together to solve the mystery of disappearing boys in a small town. The only thing that gets in their way is their own lust.

Curse of the Dragon's Tears by Heidi Betts is an excellent story about a Scottish man who was cursed by a gypsy. One hundred years later a descendent of the gypsy returns to Scotland to find the man that her ancestor cursed, and when she finds him passion ensues.

Brother's Keeper by Lilith Saintcrow is only part of a story. It is about a sex witch who hates what she is and finds her brother murdered.

(Like A) Virgin of the Spring by Susan Sizemore and Denise Little is about psychics and time travel. A woman posing as a priestess is rescued by the sexy colonel Bern when his team is sent to rescue her and her team from Brittan before the Saxons attack.

Life is the Teacher by Carrie Vaughn is a story about a newly turned vampire and how she deals with it when meeting a boy she liked in her human life.

Moonlight Becomes You by Linda Winstead Jones is the best story in this compilation of short stories. Claire believes her next door neighbour is a vampire and sets out to investigate him. Simon on the other hand is not to cooperative as every test Claire puts him through he passes. What Claire doesn't realize is that there are more than just vampires that walk the earth.

Dirty Magic by Kim Harrison is about a banshee who tries to find a way to love a man without killing him. The ending of this story is fantastic, it's what you least expect.

The stories in this book range from mediocre to pulse racing. If you are into a little bit of naughty reading get this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only bought for the Kim Harrison Hollows related story

I loved this story, but it had a rather haunting sadness to it. It's an interesting view into the mind of a specific species that the main novels hasn't gone into so far in my reading of them in order. If you can tolerate sadness of love that is never meant to be and could end badly without the intent meaning to make it so, this might be a story for you. I really am glad I read it. The ending was rather unusual for such a sad story, but you'll have to read it to find out what it was yourself. I can't wait to read the next full novel.

Da ich mehrere "The Hollows" gekauft habe
- ich ging vor nach der Liste der Autorin [...] -
und ich von allen gleich begeistert war und
bei allen das gleiche Problem sehe ist dies ein Copy/Paste Kommentar.

Die Protagonistin ist sympathisch, der Handlungsverlauf spannend, die anderen Personen interessant.
Es gibt Magie, Action, Story und Humor.

Wenn jemand die Bücher in großem Abstand liest, oder eh nur ein oder zwei lesen wird, dann empfehle ich es total.

Mein Problem:
Es gibt einen bestimmten Vorgang, den die Protagonistin nicht will.
Es ist menschlich, dass man nicht für jede Meinung zu 100% auch Argumente hat, aber das hat Grenzen.
Und diese Grenzen werden überschritten.
Es ist das IMMER GLEICHE Geflenne der Protagonistin in diesem Bereich,
das zunehmend unlogischer und auch gefährlicher für ALLE Beteiligten wird.
Sie stellt sich nicht der Realität, sie hat keine echten Argumente.
Ich kann nur vermuten, dass versucht wird, den Charakter tiefer wirken zu lassen.
Wenn man die Bücher immer las, als sie rauskamen, hatte man vielleicht kein Problem damit.
Liest man aber Buch nach Buch, vielleicht zwei an einem Tag,
dann gehen einem diese Stellen ungeheuer auf den ... naja, Ihr wisst schon.

Für jedes Einzelbuch würde ich 5 Sterne geben, aber da ich die Serie lesen wollte, geht das nicht.
Diese Stellen waren einfach nicht mehr erträglich für mich. Darum habe ich aufgehört die Serie zu kaufen/lesen.

was kinda disapointed with this book , was hoping for a mix of action and humour comparable to the rachel morgan series but couldn't get drawn into the book , the stories are more about the romance and sex than the actual non human caracters , the writing is good just not my type of book i supose

This short story collection is disappointing because it is a collection of poorly crafted tales. They are prehaps intended as teasers for the authors longer stories.Unfortunately they fail to ignight the imagination and no one would buy a book on the basis of these offerings. If this is truly Kim Harrisons choice it is a very poor one and anthologies edited by her are would be best avoided. It is a pity since the short story;a genra in its own right; gives an author so much scope and challenge to produce a perfect piece.

Kim Harrison is a fantastic fantasy author. She is always into something weird, but that is what fantasy is all about. She's a witch that lives in a Church, has a Vampire roommate and PIXIES in her garden.
