Publisher's Synopsis
Buckle up for the usual wild ride when it comes to Robert Sollars' fiction. Don't let the title fool you. There is almost no conventional romance to be found here, as that's not the author's style. While it's true that the majority of the 17 stories have satisfying or even touching endings, in order to get there, you'll most often move through supernatural or science fictional settings featuring a lot of blood and conflict.
Here's a sample of what's in store for you. "A Perfect Crist Maz" demonstrates that opposites can attract even among aliens. The long title story, "Between Two," gives us a delicious mixture of sex and surprises. In "Saving Sonja," Larry learns that the past can't be changed for the betterment of one person or even two. "The Soul Can Be Frozen" is the grimmest of the tales, taking the reader on a literally long, cold road with no warmth or redemption at the end. By contrast, "I Wish..." is the touching story of a man who turns into a sentient teddy bear and finally finds the love he craves. The collection ends with "The Conversation," a short, intriguing tale involving a man and his strong-willed, loquacious cat. It could almost be the first act of a play for which you're invited to write your own conclusion. Whether you do that or not, the author would no doubt love to hear your reactions to his writing. His contact information is at the end of the book and on his website.
