I'm a reader, reviewer, and published author at Cobblestone Press. In this blog, I focus mainly on the books I read: primarily romance in almost every subgenre, with the occasional true-crime book thrown in for a little variety.

When I'm not writing, I enjoy preserving my photos through the art of scrapbooking. I also love scented candles, though of course I don't burn them too close to my books or scrapbooking supplies. :) I also enjoy watching A&E programs such as Cold Case Files and American Justice.

Snaring the Huntress

I'm vexed with my online image host at the moment. None of my images are coming up. Hope they get it fixed while I still remember what my blog is supposed to look like. Edited to add: Apparently I need to update my FTP since I upgraded my account. It would help if the instructions were in something resembling comprehensible English. Wish me luck . . .

Now, on to happier topics. Today I read Sylvia Day's Snaring the Huntress, and it was another wonderful read. Some authors write beautiful short stories, and Day is obviously one who does: 4 out of 5.

Star is a judge, sent to find an ambassador who broke Interstellar Council Law. When she finds Roark, she discovers that he is the lover who has been haunting her dreams.

This is a short story, so I don't want to say anything more about the plot. However, it's terrific. Snaring the Huntress sets up the world of the story and creates a believable romance. I loved the touches of humor, such as at the end of chapter 1. Once again, I don't want to give anything away, but there are a number of moments in the story that make me smile.

The resolution seems a little too easy, but the rest of the story definitely makes up for it.
