REVIEW: Catching Midnight by Emma Holly

By Janine • Apr 23rd, 2008 • Category: C Reviews Category, C+ Reviews, Reviews

Dear Ms. Holly,
A few years ago, I read your historical romance Beyond Innocence. While I didn’t love the book, I thought it was better than average and I especially liked your writing voice, so much so that I quoted from it in my opinion piece on style. Therefore, when Janet (Robin) recommended Catching [...]



REVIEW: Demon’s Fire by Emma Holly

By Jane • Apr 12th, 2008 • Category: B Reviews Category, B- Reviews, Reviews

Dear Ms. Holly:
When we think of cross over genre, we readers usually are referring to the science fiction/fantasy book that appeals to both the sff reader and the romance reader. But you are probably one of the first cross over authors I ever read except I never really identified as such. You started [...]



REVIEW: Beyond the Dark by Angela Knight, Emma Holly, Lora Leigh, Diane Whiteside

Dear Ladies:
The anthologies in this collection had one thing in common - they all had a paranormal or mythical backdrop. While most of these authors are associated with super erotic fare, I found the sensuality to be mixed as well as the quality. Emma Holly’s is the top dog, her writing [...]

REVIEW: All U Can Eat by Emma Holly

By Jane • Dec 13th, 2006 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Reviews

Dear Ms. Holly:
Whenever I think of erotica, my list always includes you. I remember that the first modern erotica book I read was menage. It was such a different story for me at the time. It was the first story I ever read that featured a menage. Since that time, you have [...]



REVIEW: Prince of Ice by Emma Holly

By Jane • Oct 31st, 2006 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Reviews

Dear Ms. Holly:
This is probably my favorite book you have written so far. It’s a fairly traditional romance set in the Far East featuring young friends who have a close friendship and then are torn apart by one child’s family. While it is marketed as a paranormal and your worldbuilding is based upon [...]
