Jenre at Brief Encounters has given “The Cabin on the Hill” a lovely review. A sampling:
… the whole story is handled with a light, gentle touch and I finished it feeling not only that I’d read something engaging and fun, but also that I was optimistic about the relationship between these men working in the long term.
Thanks, Jenre!

>Teresa at Fallen Angel Reviews has posted a very happy-making review of Model Student. Things I particularly love to read: This is the first book I have read by Ms. Connor and it won’t be the last.
Thank you, Teresa!
>Very happy to say that Whipped Cream Reviews has given Model Student 4 Cherries. A brief excerpt:
There is a lot going on in this short story, but it’s not short on detail or emotion. Shae Connor writes with such fluidity that I didn’t want to stop reading, even after the last page.
Thank you so much, Tiger Lily!

>Tam at Tam’s Reads reviewed Model Student yesterday (second one on the list). Things I particularly like to read: “It’s the first story I’ve read by the author and I would definitely try more.” Thanks, Tam!
Ami at Goodreads rated Model Student 3.5 of 5 stars. “The 0.5 stars is given for an inventive erotic email and a drugged cat named Bernie.” I kind of like that email, and Bernie too, Ami. Thanks!

>Everything Under the Sun
by Rachel West
eBook, Dreamspinner Press, May 2010
Seth or Alex? Nineteen-year-old Chris has a choice to make—past versus present, old flame versus new—and it’s tougher than it seems. In her first novel, West has drawn three strong, sympathetic main characters, making the reader’s choice as difficult as Chris’s. Backed by an equally strong supporting cast, the three men navigate their way through physical intimacy and emotional timebombs, leading to an ending that leaves the reader with lingering sadness for the odd man out but just as thrilled with the final couple as they are with each other. And let’s not forget the sex, which is amazing, sensual and hot, with an astounding depth of feeling (whether good or bad) underlying the pure physicality.

>Sinner, Baker, Fabulist, Priest; Red Mask, Black Mask, Gentleman, Beast
by Eugie Foster
Originally published in Interzone, February 2009
Reprinted in Apex, August 2009
Winner, 2009 Nebula Awards, Best Novellette
Fantasy, science fiction, fairy tale, or horror? No matter. “Sinner, Baker …” invokes multiple genres as its protagonist navigates a world where every morning begins life anew and nothing is real. Each new face brings a new reality, none lasting to the next day. Foster brilliantly peels back mask after mask, revealing truth one layer at a time, until both protagonist and reader are stripped bare. Has the protagonist found a true calling, or simply a mind shattered like the masks left behind?
