Urban legends. We've all heard them, we've all told them. They fill the role that fairy tales once held-morality tales meant to frighten us into sticking with the herd, obeying society's rules, and not taking any chances. In most urban legends, once someone transgresses, we know things won't end well for them. But what if the bright spark of romance also common to these stories refuses to be snuffed out? What if it bursts into a love that fights for its chance to burn? Can love triumph over evil? Forgive any trespass? Heal any wound? Set off into a dark wood with a young love that won't go quietly into the night. Bait a vengeful ghost to find family, and love. Ride along with a hitchhiker who won't vanish for long. Learn to love a touch that is not human. Find passion beneath the scars. Dive into five tales that speak to the heart of myth and find love that is nothing short of legend. Featuring new stories by Sara Dobie Bauer, Wendy Sparrow, T. R. North, Aisling Phillips, and Michael Leonberger.… (meer)

A compact and appealing collection of retooled urban legends and modern folklore. The romantic bent of each story adds an extra layer of surprise and pay-off at the end. 'La Vie En Rose' and 'Vanishing Point' stood out as sweet, unusual love stories, while 'The Hook' has a bittersweet and effective mix of true-to-life trauma and happy endings. A great anthology for fans of urban legends and colorful, non-standard romance. ( )

This first ebook in the series. All of the stories were superbly written by talented writers. I had my favorites, but there were a couple of instances where I skipped pages to just to finish. I loved, Not Again, where perfect grace and beauty has its drawbacks; and She Wore White, which had me hoping that true love does conquer all…loved consuming those stories. The Hook was reminiscent of an old, yet creepy, urban legend that still manages to produce chilling tingles. Overall, a wonderful collection of superb reads. ( )
