• Broken Thread By Ella Quince (X:WP, 9 Pages)
  
  What a beautiful story ! The words are flowing with grace, and the emotions behind them go straight to the heart of the reader. Ella Quince's writing is like music, like a perfectly crafted song : you hear it once, the tune stay with you forever. - Carambar - Aug-25-2008

• Fiction By Ana Ortiz (X:WP, 7 Pages)
  
  This is my third time reading this story. And third time must truly be the charm, because now I get it - I *finally* get it. And I'm so glad I didn't skip out on trying it again, because this truly is a an amazing piece. Haunting, with an undertone of melancholy that stays with you long after you're done - the idea of giving life to something, but not free will or self-control - and having that something come to be aware of it eventually. Miss Ortiz leaves you constantly wanting more, and more, and more...I wish she'd come back. - Anonymous - Aug-25-2008

• Habaname By Ana Ortiz (Original / Uber - Modern, 258 Pages)
  
  This story was one of the most beautiful, and moving, I've ever read. No, scratch that - it's more than a story. It's an *experience*. In fact, it was so emotionally harrowing it left me exhausted at the end, and I've never found the gumption to read it again. You live with them, breathe with them, hear the whispers sharing their head, and if you're lucky you'll emerge a changed person, the way Barbara and Chela did, too. I can't recommend this story enough, and I just wish there were still some way to contact Miss Ortiz and tell her how this made me feel. - Anonymous - Aug-25-2008

• Birdie's Song IX - The Road Trip By Onesockbard (X:WP, 43 Pages - Unfinished)
  
  I hardly ever read short stories and make it a point to avoid unfinished stories, so it's really rare that I would read a one like this. I loved it. These stories are very well written and will touch your heart in a way that you will remember long after you have finished the story. I've laughed, cried and remembered lessons learned long ago and I highly recommend this series of stories. - Netta - Aug-24-2008

  It was nice to see Ali and MJ in happier times in this small follow up to the terrific but emotional roller coaster 'Turning Tides'. It's very apparent that the 'old' MJ is still lurking just beneath that beaufiful exterior. I would love A.K. Naten to get back in the saddle and give these girls another go round. After all 'Turning Tides' is one of the best. Whaddya say? - Sai - Aug-21-2008

• Exposed By Ronica Black (Original / Uber - Modern, 18 Pages)
  
  After reading this hot gripping story, I went and bought all her ebooks via Bella Books. Ms Black writing is unique to me as she has managed to differentiate not just her story lines, the characters, but also avoided the similarity of sex scenes, dialoques in her multiple stories. - sue4rab - Aug-20-2008

• Daughter of Egypt By Shadowriter (Original / Uber - Modern, 117 Pages)
  
  I was browsing around, and saw this story. I was in the mood to read something different, and boy did this fit the bill. The characterizations and interactions ring true as if this was a chronicle of the relationship of real people. The dimensions of the characters was excellent, and worked very well with the pacing of the story. I also like the fact that it diverged from commonly used mythology, and it did it really well. I look forward to reading more work by Shadowriter. - Kara - Aug-20-2008

This tale has it all; love, angst, sex, life and did I mention LOVE? Superior writing at any level. badsquirrel's stories are a MUST READ for anyone who likes to have a sense of completion at the end of a story.

• Captive Hearts By Anita Louise (Original / Uber - Modern, 373 Pages - Unfinished)
  
  Where to begin, so much happens in this fantastic story, it is hard to pinpoint one thing. I loved Fire Within. It is marvelous. I love, all the characters in FW. I did not think there would be a story that would touch me like Fire Within, but the writer has done this with her sequel, Captive Hearts. It is nice to see the characters again as well as some new. This story brings out the humanity, the heartache, the caring and love one has for one another. And the sex wowzah! There is plenty of action including a great sword fight, a daring rescue in the Everglades, enough meanies to sink a ship but there is also a bit of levity, it shows there can still be enjoyment regardless what is ahead or happening. Throughout this story, Love is the key, but sometimes love takes a backseat to life and a person has to deal with what is handed to them. Each character is vivid, I can see the places, what is happening as I read. Tara Coltrane really shines in this as does, Barbara Johnson and Belle Gardner. Bobie parker, reached out and touched me, she is a great character. I was by her side all the way. And Skylar Richmond wow, what a person. Too bad there isn.t anyone like that around here. Like I wrote, I loved the story, I love the characters. I enjoyed this and cannot wait for a sequel. I know the characters will be back, I look forward to whatever direction the writer takes them. Because I feel it will be another amazing, terrific read. - Debbie J - Aug-19-2008

• Journey Through Shadow Land By J. A. Bard (X:WP, 91 Pages)
  
  Reminds me of the old vintage roleplaying computer programs (the ones like Zork, which relied on words, no pictures). The author use of Gabrielle's having to explain the environment to Xena, gives the reader a vivid view of their everchanging surroundings and challenges they must face. Combine this with a wonderful use of dreams and desires to move the story (and reader), it is definitley a 'do not read at work' story. ;) - Tryxter111 - Aug-18-2008

• Airwaves By Zee (Original / Uber - Modern, 30 Pages)
  
  Zee once again cleverly spins a tale that initially seems so simple . girl meets girl but the love-hate dynamic that she whips out between Jessica, the spoiled big-time LA TV personality forced to work at a small NPR radio station and Sean, the young feisty radio engineer is all that and more. Loved a lot about this story especially some clever phrases like, .Sean.s tongue, the apple seducing Jessica out of her garden of self-imposed isolation.. Or, .you.re right Jess you should start small, like having sex with another person first&. Story includes Mama Megan the matriarch that raised five lesbians . typical sibling rivalry between 25-year-old Sean and older sister and station general manager, Gabriel. Kudos to this bard!!! Really good read and over way to quickly. Please, I know it's been a few years, but how about another tale of the Wildeman clan??? PLEASE - toni - Aug-16-2008

• See Right Through Me By Fingersmith (Original / Uber - Modern, 122 Pages)
  
  Fingersmith has just given us as a present "See Right Through Me". The gift is not only another novel. It's not a tale. I should say, it's a fable. Fingersmith started a Fable Serie with "Once", later with "Miracle" and now with "See Right Through Me". I think that she's become a Writer of Fables because she prepares us for the story and she gets to a number of conclusions that make us think and very seriously how to face our relationships and how to improve. In the meantime, Fingersmith takes us through a path of good writing. Always welcome. Always satisfying. What else can we ask for a good story? - Towanda - Aug-13-2008

  This story is one that grabs you and won't let go. It is compelling and I 'had' to stay up last night to finish it. A reviewer referred to it as the 'Darkside' of love.

• Publishing Announcement from Mavis Applewater -
  
  It's the book you've been waiting for! Blue Feather Books is very pleased to announce the release of Mavis Applewater's new full-length novel, Tempus Fugit. www.bluefeatherbooks.com
  
  Buchanan High School senior Ellen Druette has a secure spot on the Varsity cheerleading squad, a first-string football player boyfriend, and a solid plan for her life. Then the Swenson twins sweep into town in their matching Chevy Bel Air convertibles. Tall, blonde, and gorgeous, the twins are quickly accepted into the cheerleading squad, and Ellen's plan begins to unravel. Though Laurie Swenson makes the first move on her, it's Ginny who captures her heart. But malicious forces are at work in the Swenson family, and Ginny, their scapegoat, is convicted of crimes she didn't commit and sent to prison. Determined to prove her lover's innocence, Ellen investigates the case even as she completes her pre-law studies and enters law school. By the time Ginny is released from prison, she and Ellen have grown apart. They're still attracted to one another, but neither is confident of the other's feelings. Are they really in love, or are they just very good friends? Against the turbulent, psychedelic backdrop of the Sixties, Ellen and Ginny drift in and out of each other's lives as they strive for the courage to reveal their hearts.
  
  Mavis is proud to announce that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Tempus Fugit will be donated to The Human Rights Campaign.

• In Too Deep By Ronica Black (Original / Uber - Modern, 182 Pages)

• Twist of Fate By Darkenedkarma (Birds of Prey - Modern, 146 Pages)
  
  Whether or not you're a fan of the DCU (comic/movie/TV), this story is totally worth reading. Love what the author did with the characters' backstories, including the relationship between Helena's parents and between them and Helena. She totally deserves the last name (trying not to be too spoiler-tastic here) and upbringing and it was wonderful seeing this version of Helena-Barbara interaction developing. Might I also I add a request for a sequel? :) - oriflamme - Aug-10-2008

• Daughter of Egypt By Shadowriter (Original / Uber - Modern, 117 Pages)
  
  ABSOLUTELY A BREATHTAKING STORY. I would say this tale should be categorized as literature. It is larger than life, has characters that draw from and illustrate humanity's features, and finds the place where heart and soul meet. This story added another star in the sky. In my heart I will feel that Shayt and Daryl lived together forever, and it makes me happy to imagine the eternity they spend loving each other. Yes, I would rather Shadowriter write her imagination in a sequel, but time always pulls us to different necessities. THANK YOU, Shadowriter! - Azadi - Aug-05-2008

  I read this series many years ago and now have reread it. This is a beautiful series of stories that begins with Janeway helping Seven come to terms with the death of her son, One. Each story shows the progression of Seven regaining, or discovering, her humanity through her interaction with Janeway. This leads the two to take their friendship to the next level. Insightful and a very satisfying read. Highly recommended. - cygirl1 - Aug-03-2008

  Another wonderful installment of these outstanding series! The characters in Trekgrrl.s stories are likeable and still believable. One of the things that I find most attractive are that the personages keep being developed . and not only in the expected direction . far beyond the point of mere introduction. Though no Voyager fan myself, I was quickly won over by the good and original writing. And I.m voracious enough of a ff reader to have stumbled upon various stories of that fandom. I know the usual canon couples as well as different original characters in this .verse; among them all those series are without a doubt one of the best in my mind. Read them! Enjoy them! But be sure to have secured enough free time for that because in my experience those are .read in one sitting. stories. ;-) And Thank you, Trekgrrl!!!! - M. - Jul-29-2008

  Read it. You will not regret it. Okay, when I first read the disclaimers and content section and saw that the story involved BDSM I was a bit reluctant. I am so not into pain, dominance or bondage. Call me squemish. I kept reading because everyone else seemed to be so taken with this story and I didn't want to miss something great. So, I read on, and on...and on. I loved this story. Do not let preconceptions stop you as I almost did. BadSquirrel did a wonderful job telling her story without once making me turn away, or squeezing my legs together. - Anonymous - Jul-23-2008

  Captive Hearts a wonderful story. Characters I can see and places I would like to see. The story takes a person from Fire Within and allows them to see what is happening after. I love Fire Within and I love this story too. From Sky.s love for Bobie to all the excitement, that enfolds. Would love to know more about The Canyon. But at the same time can.t wait to see where the author is taking the characters, as they all seem to be going in different directions. Some together some apart. I travel the road with them. Waiting to see just what will come around the next bend. Captive Hearts has captured mine. - Debra - Jul-19-2008

• Dark Side of the Moon (The) By BadSquirrel (Original / Uber - Modern, 330 Pages)
  
  You've done it again...OUTSTANDING!!! When I'm looking for something to read and I pass by something that has BDSM as a theme, I usually keep looking. Not because I have anything against it -- other things to read about just usually interest me more. Well, I knew better than to consider for one second that there would be anything out there more interesting to read and I wasn't disappointed. Far from it. The same as with all of BadSquirrel's stories, the characters and their thoughts and emotions are incredibly funny and real and touching, and the way the story itself is told keeps the reader totally engrossed -- all the way to the end. I can't wait for the next story. - Sthpaw30 - Jul-17-2008

• At First Sight By Colleen (Original / Uber - Modern, 196 Pages)
  
  This story is absolutely beautiful. Two lonely people coming together and fulfilling one another. The character development was excellent and very well paced; you could really see each character realistically trying to overcome their fears. If you're in the mood for a sweet story about characters genuinely struggling to overcome their "issues" and allow themselves to be loved, give this one a try. - Word_Mage - Jul-16-2008

  I read a glaring recommendation for this story at XOC on a thread for Conqueror fan fiction that was very complimentary so I had to click on it and see what all of the fuss was about. I could not stop reading it; I didn't want to! This is as close to a masterpiece of Xena fan fiction as I've read. I wish there was more and that the story didn't have to end so suddenly. If anyone is reading this review and has not read the story yet, read it now! You will not be disappointed. I have fallen in love. - areslovex - Jul-08-2008

• Things That Terrify Me the Most By A. Valdivia (Ali Vali) (Original / Uber - Modern, 118 Pages)
  
  **** Spoiler Alert **** More emphasis on the love than in the previous story, but still as entertaining as "Vampires, Mummies & the Holy Ghost". Only problem is that it kinda leaves you hanging. Hopefully there will be a sequel. - Ape - Jul-05-2008

• Vampires, Mummies and the Holy Ghost By A. Valdivia (Ali Vali) (Original / Uber - Modern, 165 Pages)
  
  A nice take on the concept of immortality and what it may include. Good supernatural action mixed with a sweet love story. - Ape - Jul-05-2008

• Did he who made the Lamb make thee? By Cheaza (X:WP, 21 Pages)
  
  This story still has me saying WOW! It truly deals with the anguish of everything Gabrielle went through, lost of her blood innocence, betrayal of a friendship, murder of a child, killing of one's own child and betrayal of one's own moral compass. The logical conclusion...the lost of self. Well done! It rates about a 10+ on the angnst meter. - mapsnika - Jul-05-2008

  In the last 15 years i've read many many stories online. As you can imagin they range from painfully hard to read, to those that I wish I had a hardcopy of to read again and again. Northstar and Southern Cross fall into the latter catagory. It was very well done and kept my attention all the way through. I bow to your ability Windstar...

• Lycea By Her Bard (X:WP, 26 Pages)
  
  I though this was a brilliant story. It got me hooked from the beggining and definately look forward to a sequel. I can't believe this was Her Bards first attempt, as it was so good. I loved the interaction between Xena and Gabrielle and then with Lycea and Solan as the story and the family developed. I definately recommend anyone and everyone to read this story - Mizaran shadow - Jul-03-2008

• Without A Front By Fletcher DeLancey (Original / Uber - Futuristic, 884 Pages)
  
  This is an excellent piece of science fiction. It is textured and intelligent. The world that the author has created is not only believable and faithful to it's own rules, but it's mesmerizing. There are so many layers to this work that it continues to entice even during a second reading. My only question is, 'why isn't it published?'. - Wasabigirl - Jul-02-2008

• No Return By Fletcher DeLancey (Star Trek: Voyager - Futuristic, 860 Pages)
  
  Excellent. I read 'No Return' because of 'Without A Front.' I was not disappointed. I've read 'Front' three times. I was blown away by the story and then the icing on the cake 'No Return.' So far two readings. I look forward to the future writings of the great author. - BJ - Jul-01-2008

• Just One Of Those Things By Mavis Applewater (Original / Uber - Modern, 150 Pages)
  
  WOW. Ok, I admit it, this is the 1st long piece by Mavis that I've read and I must say it has all the humor, charm and intimacy that I have come to expect from all of her work. There was a little angst, just enough to make me REALLY care about what happened to these characters. Kudos to Mavis for a very well written piece! and of course it was still HOT, lol! - toni - Jul-01-2008
