I almost didn't post this final fairy tale for fear of what might happen to the people that hear it!  But I'm more afraid of what would happen if I didn't post it...

Sadly, this fairy tale did not go as planned...there were certain complications, but alas, I've said too much!

Listen...and learn... and be afraid, be very afraid....

THE 13TH FLOOR!

The 13^th Floor

 Complete Collection

 Christine Rains

My Review:

Christine Rains has created an unusual collection of short stories about paranormal beings living on the 13^th Floor on an apartment building that is only accessible to them. The City of Carmine is under attack by evil and their lives become intertwined as they deal with issues unique to each and yet part of the whole. 

Stefanie is a werewolf, an alpha who is being hunted by the pack she should be leading. Then there is Marc, a demon who has retired from doing the Master's bidding, and Meira, a Harpy under the thumb of Zeus who falls in love with a human, a true hero that Zeus wants in his army. And that is just three of the unique characters that fill these stories of love and sacrifice in Christine Rains, The 13^th Floor: The Complete Collection.

I thoroughly enjoyed the time I spent learning about the residents of the 13^th Floor. Her stories are about a group of paranormal beings in need of anonymity but extremely secure in the human world. My favorite resident was Marc the retired demon who saw himself as the landlord and protector, but I loved all the characters and their individual journeys. Each character has different obstacles to overcome in a quest for redemption and love that most never saw coming.

I happily recommend this collection to all readers of romance and the paranormal, and to all readers looking for something new – a genre they have not tried before. This is a great place to start. It's a wonderful escape, with a beautifully constructed world and well-developed characters, written with skill and with just the right amount of romance. 

I truly enjoyed Christine's 13^th Floor and since there is the added bonus called The Shadow, can we take that as an indication that more great stories are on the way with new characters and new story lines for the unusual residents of the 13^th Floor? This reader hopes so!
