The fourteen short stories included in this erotic collection, will take the reader on a journey of love and passion, as Snyder delves into the hearts and souls of her men. The stories are unique and satisfying (pun intended!), interconnected by their strong characterizations, diverse plots and hot man on man action.

Some of my favorites:

In "A Little Something for Santa," Patrick has a special present for Santa, when he gets a visit from the man in red. I loved this short story! Snyder writes with a jolly sense of humor, pushing every single one of my kinky Santa buttons.

Drew just wanted a chance to meet someone interesting, when he lets a friend talk him into an unusual weekend of fun in "Pony Play." Snyder quickly immerses us into this exotic world of S&M, detailing the costumes and "rules." Drew may well be a little in over his head, until he meets a man that masters his fears and desires. The scene between Drew and his "Master" was sensually written, describing a beautiful submission.

"Best Friends" is a sweet, gentle story of two friends finding love. I've always had a soft spot for these kinds of themes; friends from childhood who have loved a lifetime, discovering that their feelings are something more than just being best friends. Two friends spend a night in the back of a pickup truck, sharing beers and reminiscing, before one of them heads off for boot camp the next morning. The friends soon discover "it's never too late" when an awkward kiss turns into something more.

"One of Us" is a passionate supernatural tale that I could definitely sink my teeth into. Conner's your average young man, freshly graduated from High School, working the night shift at the local grill. He dreams of a different life, not interested in the family business: the local funeral parlor. There's a full moon tonight and Conner's a bit feverish with a strange bite that won't heal, when he encounters someone that stokes a different kind of fever in him.

In "Threesome" a man has an interesting proposition for a couple he meets at a bar. Written with hilarious dialog and heart-thumping action, Snyder had me giggling and gasping throughout this short. Alan and Steve are perfect as the monogamous couple tempted by the sweet lure of the ménage à trios. Seriously hot!

Snyder writes with a wicked sense of humor in "Easily Addicted," a romantic short with a twist of bittersweet. Zack barrels into Trevor's life, pursuing Trevor with an amusing single-minded determination. Trevor's a little off-balance having just broke-up with his boyfriend, not sure he's ready for another relationship.

I swear, all through this short I expected slashing knives and pools of blood! "Hooking Up" may not have serial killers, but it has that dangerous-edged intensity that I so love ... in my fiction, that is. Damien's dominate and mysterious, manhandling Brokenboy in a way that was just fiercely cool. Don't want to spoil a fun twist in the story, but Damien's not what he seems.

"Devilish Good Time" is a Halloween-themed short that conjures up those nostalgic memories of best friends, "submarine races" and a vivid imagination fueled by too many beers. It just may be Jacob's lucky night when he's invited along with a couple and the young man he's crushing on. Things are just getting interesting between Jacob and his new boyfriend, when something goes bump in the night.

My mind went totally in the gutter with "The New Client." Private Investigator Richard Guy is hired to find a woman's twin brother. With the young man's photo firmly grasped in "one-hand," Guy sets out to find his guy. What a way to end the anthology!
