Best of Both Worlds by Anita Louise     
Original / Uber | Modern | Alternative | Romance (alt) | Very Short Story - 7 pages | Finished | Nov-07
This story depicts the beginnings of what will become a loving friendship when a young actress living in California goes on an audition and meets the lead in the Pilot she is reading for. Chemistry begins.
I enjoyed this short story. It gave me a glance into the world of auditions and the things it might involve. I could see Jennie and how she felt reading with a fabulous and acclaimed actress. Eyes are the mirror into ones soul they say and I could see all this in Lacey and Jennie. The two women clicked in the beginning and for sure magical things will happen from now on. Would love to read more though. - Kim - Dec-08-2007   

This is a great first chapter. The story just got started and then that was it. Please author finish the story...it truly is a great start! - JC - Jun-13-2009

Part 2 of the Fire Within Series
Series List: Fire Within, Captive Hearts, Epiloque to Captive Hearts
I absolutely loved Fire Within it is-- non stop, action packed, with a great story line. I stayed up till 4 am one morning, to finish it! Loved the combination of mystery, murder, love, and monster. I plan to read everything of yours. Have started your new story and it is wonderful to see Skylar and the characters from Fire Within back. Love what I am reading.
Keep writing. - Joan - Jan-07-2008   

I am enjoying this story. I always feel as if I am taking every step with the characters. It is refreshing to feel the words, to see what is happening.
Look forward to more from this author. Do not know how to write and tell her what I think of the story. - Rachel - Jan-13-2008   

I have enjoyed the stories written by Anita Louise, especially Fire Within. Was very happy to see she is
writing a sequel to this wonderful story.
Captive Hearts has taken me back to these great
characters. I love Skylar,think she is one beautiful
fantastic woman, but have to say, Tara Coltrane
is making a good mark on the reader. This last chapter of CH, brought the woman back. Looks like she will be working with Skylar to find Bobby. I see a lot of excitement and close encounters coming. Looking forward to the next chapter. - Debbie - Feb-06-2008   

Captive Hearts touched me as I lost a very dear friend who had been abducted. Took me awhile to keep reading but I am now hooked on this story. Have read Fire Within and love this story also. The two women were so real, I was there. Every moment along this incredible journey. Each character, every place written with such clarity. I loved the town, the people, the surrounding areas.
Well, not all the people, some really are scoundrels.

I have found that Captive Hearts brings many of the wonderful characters back to the reader. It is great that Sky has a nemeses like Tara. She can be bad, and really bad, yet she can also been dearing. Have to say the two would make a really great team.
There would never be a moment of dullness around these two.

Then I also have to say, Sky and Bobie are a fabulous couple. From the beginning in Fire Within to now. I feel for Bobie, I feel for Sky and wait patiently for the next chapter of this compelling story to become available.
- Barbara Jean - Mar-11-2008   

Finally, Anita Louise has given us the long awaited sequel to FIRE WITHIN that is still appearing on the top 25. Skylar, Bobie, Tara and other characters so well written you can't forget them and want to see more of their adventures. Excellent backgrounds, scenery, mystery and fine dialogue. CAPTIVE HEARTS looks like another captivating tale. Can't wait for the next chapter. - O Ger - Mar-19-2008   

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 Skys love for Bobie to all the excitement, that enfolds. Would love to know more about The Canyon. But at the same time cant 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   

Forgot the spice index.

Captive Hearts causes my heart to beat faster, at certain times,sensations take a lovely journey that caresses me in
wonderful ways. - Debra - Jul-19-2008   

Just want to say I enjoy this story. Have been
waiting for more. Does anyone know how I can
read more.

- Deanna - Aug-12-2008   

thank you for finishing this story,Now we are desperately waiting for another sequel...please say it's coming soon,Bobby and sky deserve better. - Anonymous - Aug-18-2008   

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 isnt 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.

Just when I think I have figured out whats going on, Anita throws in a curveand brings it in a whole new direction........Looking forwardto the next chapters........ - Jean - Dec 12th, 2002   

I'm up to date on my reading of "Fire Within" and can't wait for more! These characters have captivated me.The town, the people, the strange going ons and now the monster that is scouring the countryside. It is a breath of fresh air to read a story that actually lets the readers feel 'every step.' A story that takes the reader on many adventures. I have laughed at times. Felt my heart beat faster when things got tense and scary. I actually feel as if I am a part of this adventure. The love the women share is fantastic. CanĘt wait to read more of this story. - Jill - Oct 8th, 2003   

Enjoyed the story, and I am the type of person where if you donĘt catch my interest in the first few paragraphs, then I am going to read something that will. Well written, I look forward to new adventures by the characters and a sequel. R. - Anonymous - Jan 30th, 2004   

This story reads like a great mystery novel..with the characters intertwining within and around one another... loved it....looking forwards to a sequel. - Christi - Jan 30th, 2004   

Oh, yeah, the Fire Within has so many tendrils of flames feeding marvelous characters, romance, plots, mysterious goings on and a hairy horror not born from a bad hair salon. You will cringe at times, put new wrinkles in your forehead trying to figure out the who the numerous bad guys are and get a free suntan following the characters to valleys & desert locations. The gals are gorgeous, lovable, funny and fend quite well dealing with the bad guys. Not much this story failed to weave well into it pages. Don't miss this one and encourage the bard to write a sequel. Just too characters you want to see again and follow to another adventure.How about it, Anita Louise?O Ger - Anonymous - Jan 30th, 2004   

A bevy of butt-kicking, intelligent, and gorgeous women head up the cast of this exceptional mystery. Anita Louise offers another well-written adventure that will transport the reader to exotic locales, place you in the middle of danger, and face-to-face with an element of the supernatural. And just in time for Valentine's Day, Anita puts the reader in the mood for romance as she weaves tales of enduring love within this novel. Will you be able to solve the mystery before the heroines? It will be quite the challenge, even for super sleuths. - Rachel - Jan 31st, 2004   

A fantastic story filled with romance, action, and mystery! One of my favorites. Don't forget to vote for Fire Within for the top 100. It definitely deserves a high spot, and so do Anita Louise's other stories. Check them out! She's such a talented writer. - Jane Bond - Feb 1st, 2004   

WOW!! Great story. It holds your attention to the very end. - kb - Aug 26th, 2005   

Ive just finished reading "Fire Within." This adventure
has been amazing. It was written so well, I felt everything.
Every step Skylar and Bobie took, so did I.

I felt like I was in Springfield, what an amazing town,
and the people, wow, so real.

Anita wove, adventure, romance, compassion,
the supernatural, so many fantastic people each
brought out wonderfully.

There is so much this story entails, so many
moments where one may tremble, sit on the
edge of their chair, biting their fingernails,
feeling every emotion, and loving it.

The second Skylar Richmond stepped off
the plane, after it landed at the airport in
Springfield, one could sense a spark had begun.

I have looked forward to another of Anita Louises
great stories. I hear she is working on one
and cant wait to read it. - Jen - Jan-25-2007
