"Time After Time" by Antoinette Stockenberg
Dell, August 1995 Reviewed on 7/10/99 | |||||

Her face was covered with plaster and dust when he came calling - and she tumbled out of her
attic crawl space into his arms. Jack Eastman was as arrogant, as effortlessly elegant as his Newport mansion, which
loomed behind Liz Coppersmith's new home, a modest cottage separated from East Gate by barbed wire. She hated
everything that it - and the handsome bachelor - symbolized. But she needed him. The job that Jack offered would
launch her party-planning business among Newport's upper crust. However, it came with a price: a hunger she couldn't
deny for a man she couldn't afford to love. It all began when Liz found the old trunk in her attic, with letters that
told of a great love lost a century earlier. After that came the sound of the chimes, and then the handsome, seductive
ghost himself. He was waiting for her, watching as she melted in Jack's arms, watching as she tried to drive jack away.
And then he spoke - of a love greater than death, of a destiny that could be hers alone.

"Virtual Heaven" by Ann Lawernce

The warrior loomed over her. His leather jerkin, open to his waist, revealed a bounty of chest
muscles and a corrugation of abdominals. Maggie O'Brien's gaze jumped from his belt buckle to his jewel-encrusted
boot knife, avoiding the obvious indications of a man well-endowed. Too bad he was just a poster advertising a virtual
reality game. Maggie had always thought such male perfection could exist only in fantasies like Tolemac Wars.
But then the game took on a life of its own, and she found herself face-to-face with her perfect hero. Now it would
be up to her to save his life when danger threatened, to gentle his warrior's heart, to forge a new reality that both could
share.
