My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology. This is the best anthology of Hansel & Gretel. I loved all the stories and I would have a hard time picking a favorite. Its not the classic story for sure but if you are ok with a not so happy ending these stories are for you. The authors have all done an amazing job with this anthology. There is sex, horror, romance, paranormal, mental illness etc. I loved reading them all and not knowing what to expect. Each author has done a great job of making us know its Hansel & Gretel but just in a very different way. There are still gingerbread houses, witches and being lost in the woods but just different spins on it. This set will keep you entertained for hours! I loved it!

Hansel & Gretel, Down the Rabbit Hole, Anthology. All of these stories are the fairy tales retold by these wonderful authors. They will all drag you in and make you feel like you are in the actual stories. These stories all have their own stages of darkness. The emotions range from child abuse, romance, horror and of course fantasy. The stories that pulled me on the most were, Hazel & Gretchen by Erin Lee and also The Reaper Within by Jess Bagnall. All of the stories were fabulous and I highly recommend this Anthology.

I really enjoyed this anthology, it was great to read books from authors I know and also some new to me authors. I really like all of the re-telling of fairy tales at the minute, they make for some very entertaining reading and this anthology contained some really varied subjects also. I really enjoyed CeeCee Elaine’s story – The Surface – I’ve read work by this author previously so it was great to read her work again and considering what is going on in the world at the moment her story about a virus plaguing the land was interesting to read. I also really enjoyed Lorah Jai’s story – Shadows that Move, it was actually a really interesting read and quite realistic at times – mental health is such a huge I always applaud authors for highlighting it in their work.
A really great collection of stories in this anthology – definitely something for everybody!! I highly recommend it!

I give Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology, 5 stars.

This is such a great collection of stories, taking a classic fairy tale and twisting and turning it in many different ways. We tend to see more of the stories Disney has already tackled, it’s nice to see Hansel and Gretel, one that has not been reimagined too much so far. Each author has their on unique take on making the story their own — incorporating many genres. That in itself makes this book pleasurable for those who get bored reading the same thing over and over. You really have so much to choose from. Each story is written so well, I was drawn into each one immediately and couldn’t wait to see where I would be taken next.

If you enjoyed fairy tales as a kid but don’t necessarily need a happy ending, this collection is for you.

The Hansel and Gretel Reimagined Anthology was great! I only read two stories out of the Anthology however. The two I read we’re chilling, shocking, and left me wanting more. In Hazel and Gretchen by Erin Lee, the author broke my heart with the abuse the children suffered. It was a very sad, chilling story. I wasn’t particularly fond of the ending, but it was a very chilling story. In Shadows That Move by Lorah Jaiyn, I was completely enraptured in the story. It was very chilling, very shocking, it was like reading my favorite horror movie. I honestly want Jaiyn to write a sequel to this short story, because I want to find out what happens next so bad! I can’t wait to eventually read the other stories in this set. The two I read were incredible!

Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology filled with five-star stories. This is a great collection as each author puts their own twist on a classic story, there are so many different ways this bunch have gone, from scary, to fantasy, to romance and its seems a little of everything along the way. I will be honest and admit I picked this up as it had Autumn Sand in it, not realising they are just the co-ordinator, but honestly I didn’t mind as the others pulled me into their story’s and I enjoyed getting some new authors to lightly stalk. Especially Cee Cee Elaine her story had me looking outside to see if we were going to be heading to bunkers as it was scarily real at the present lock down time. Lorah Jaiyn was another one that made me really think about how we see people and react to things, it was a powerful story on its own. Debra Parmley story was another winner in my eyes, but to be honest there wasn’t a story I didn’t enjoy.

I love a twist on a classic and this anthology spared no possible twist. I wasn’t prepared for the extensive differences between stories but would be hard pressed to pick a favorite from the bunch. Unique and fabulously detailed, each page brought something new. A fantastic anthology for all fantasy lovers to pick up – especially if you are looking for something different.

Hansel & Gretel
Down the Rabbit Hole
Anthology
By Amy Allen and 4 more
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
This is loaded with many versions of Hansel and Gretel. Everyone worth the read.
While I read all of the versions, my favorites are……

The Sweetest Day – by Debra Parley
Every Story has a beginning, but the gingerbread and candy house were missing. That is what makes this story fun to read. Welcome to the pretty princess pink house. I love this version and that is what made Debra Parley a fun author. Her story is complete in its few pages. The characters are clever and perfect for this story. Job Well Done Debra Parley!

The Shadows That Move – Lorah Jaiyn
Okay! This story also took you on a different rollercoaster ride. The house involved is bound by tall trees and the shadows within. Missing children, strong women and Witches oh my. Lorah Jan wrote this suspense building story. She also left you wanting more, so much more that I will be stalking this author for more stories.
The best part about reading Anthologies is the fact it guides you to look up and read other authors.

This was a wonderful collection of Hansel & Gretel stories. Some of these were what I expected and others were so different I almost had to reread some of them. I enjoyed each one of these and now I’ve found a few more authors I hadn’t heard of before. The authors have done an amazing job of writing their version of Hansel and Gretel. I would highly recommend reading these stories. The anthology sticks to the conventions of the fairy tale including gingerbread houses, witches, being lost in the woods and trying to find your way back home with breadcrumbs. Some of the stories are truly frightening, but in a good way. There is romance sprinkled in too, sweetening the pot.
The stories and authors are:

– The Witch in the Woods By: Amy Allen

I really enjoyed reading the unique stories in this anthology. Each one transforms the original tale of Hansel & Gretel into something completely different. Each author touches on a different theme and will make you feel different emotions. Some made me laugh, while another made me want to cry. It’s certainly a ride down the rabbit hole.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this collection of stories all with a different take on the classic story of Hansel and Gretel. My two favourites are The Witch In the Woods by Amy Allen and The Surface by CeeCee Elaine.

The Witch in the Woods turns the story of Hansel and Gretel around. So instead of focusing on the children, it focuses on the story of the “witch”.
Morgause is a Fae who is sent to the human realm with twin babies, one boy and one girl on the orders of the king. What she didnt realise was that this was all a lie made up by the kings son to get rid of her. But that wasnt the whole story.
She is left on earth keeping watch over the children Cory and Sydni, getting more angry at her situation as the years wear on. Until King Bayard comes to see her and the true story about his love for her and the children comes to light.
As the children grow will they embrace their true parent and their home in the Fae realm or will they want to stay in the human realm with parents who don’t care for them.
It is a story full of lies and deceit but with happiness and love at the end.

The Surface is a completely different story and one i wasnt expecting, even though i enjoyed it.

There is a virus killing people on the surface so all the survivers go to live in a bunker underground. Among them are Hansel and Gretel. Hansel is taken in after his mother and father pass away from the virus and Gretel was found wandering alone, lost and naked with no family.

They form a relationship but things arent right Gretel isnt what she seems and the love they share will be the undoing of Hansel. Its a gripping horror story that keeps you guessing all the way through.

Hansel and Gretal (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology
4 Stars

I’ve always loved fairytales. The authors in this anthology definitely wrote their own version of this classic. There is a bit of everything in these stories so they should satisfy most readers. I prefer stories that have a twist with some horror therefore these were my favourites.

The Surface by CeeCee Elaine

This leans towards a dystopian vibe. Most of mankind has died off because of an airborne virus. Two people escape an underground bunker and return to the surface. The story has a crazy twist at the end that you never see coming.

The Reaper Within by Jess Bagnall

A boy who has been shunned his entire life by the village grows up to be a hunter. He hunts the monsters in the forest helping the doctor with his experiments. With a twist you don’t expect, it’s definitely not a happy fairytale but it will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Shadows that Move by Lorah Jaiyn

Witches and curses abound in this story. What do you do when no one believes you? When you’re terrorized but end up being blamed. If the truth doesn’t flow with everyone’s beliefs, does it pass as mental illness? Read the story and decide what you believe.

I have absolutely loved all the inclusions of this Anthology, Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole). Who doesn’t love enjoying the chance to take a piece of their childhood and discover a grown up way to read our favorites. I love this book as it gave me a chance to take a moment and enjoy so many twists to a classic that has always been an all time favorite of mine. I enjoy the fact that each author has such a distinct voice that comes across and makes you feel as if you’re stepping into a whole new world with each novel. This one did include some authors that I didn’t know I was missing in my life. I will now have a whole set of new authors to discover outside the anthology and that is a win win situation for all involved. I loved all of the short reads available but the ones by Lorah Jaiyn, and Jess Bagnall, so those will be the ones I have decided to start devouring their libraries first. I look forward to seeing if this is the beginning of a set of anthologies that will make our old fairytale favorites come to life for us again. Happy reading!

4-Stars

Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology was full of interesting stories providing a retelling of the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel. Each story had a different twist and I enjoyed how the two were depicted differently. The stories include romance, fantasy, and horror versions. A few easily caught my attention while some took me a couple of pages. My favorite story in the anthology is “The Dragon and The Phoenix” by Rachel Pudsey. I enjoyed the characters in this short story and also the creativity. This book was enjoyable and entertaining. I recommend it.

Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole) is an anthology of brilliant stories by a variety of fantastic authors. They have each taken on the task to create their own version of the classic tale Hansel and Gretel and the result is a mix of original retellings.
Anthologies have never been my favourite style of book to read but it is ones like this that is slowly changing my mind. I enjoyed each and every one of these stories – they were all so different from each other but all so exciting. The books touched on a range of different topics and straddled the line of dark writing so well.
Each book had something about it that made me enjoy it. There was a different element that caught my attention. The one thing I can say that all the books had was a well written story with some complex and interesting characters. This is definitely an anthology I would recommend as well as 7 authors to discover.

This is a wonderful anthology that has different authors retelling the story of Hansel and Gretel. I loved reading every one of the stories. The authors have done an amazing job of making the characters in each story come alive. I felt like I was right there with them. The stories included deception, danger, and some gave me a scare. I love anthologies because I get to read stories by authors that I am familiar with as well as being introduced to new authors as well. The stories pulled me in and I didn’t want to put them down until I had read the final page. These stories also have emotional and romantic moments. I found this group of stories to be entertaining and intriguing. There were times when I would say to myself “that didn’t just happen, did it?” The authors have done an amazing job of writing their version of Hansel and Gretel.

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3)IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“Celebrate the season of love”. These romantic stories range from fun and flirty to semi-sweet and suspenseful. I enjoyed all the stories in this anthology and was introduced to some new authors as well as some old favourites. I particularly liked ‘Two Hearts’ Reconnaissance’ by Tamara Ferguson, Eve Loughlin and Harry Giordano are teenage survivors and are drawn to each other from the first time they meet. The chemistry between Eve and Harry sizzled off the page. I fell in love with the characters and liked how they had overcome obstacles and survived. Sadly their careers separated them but the love they shared was strong, can they find their way back to their hearts? Although the story touches on some sensitive issues it is all about love and hope and does have a HEA. No spoilers, I recommend the story to find out.
The other story which stood out was by Jacquie Biggar, ‘The Player’, this is book 2 of Biggar’s, ‘ Men of Warhawkes’ series about a successful NHL Hockey team. Defenceman Roy Donaldson lives and breathes hockey so when an ex girlfriend turned stalker causes trouble for the team he is not happy. He’s even less impressed when he gets benched and so turns to PA Patience Kennedy for help. In order for Patience to receive a junior partnership she must restore Roy’s reputation, however she thinks Roy is moody and annoying, oh, and very attractive. Roy thinks Patience is sexy but sassy. The chemistry between them shows from their first meeting and grows each time they are together resulting in some steamy scenes. I loved the characters and the storyline flowed nicely.
‘A Little Change of Plans’ by Suzanne Jenkins had lovely characters and a great storyline, Jake falls in love at first sight when he meets rookie firefighter Geri. ‘All Night Long’ by Cynthia Cooke had a unique storyline featuring a Valentine’s party, a fake engagement and a St. Bernard coming to the rescue on a snowy mountain, ending in romance. Susan Jean Ricci’s ‘First Class Flirtation’ features two strangers during a cross-country flight and a argument which leads to a passionate infatuation. I could go on as I enjoyed all the stories as each one was so different and unique it made this anthology as a whole a fascinating read and gave me hours of entertainment reading the stories. I definitely recommend this book.

This anthology series offers the reader eight beautiful and steamy stories. These stories will be fun, charming, flirty and grips the reader. In this witty, whimsical page-turner, it’s filled with wonderful characters. It’s so romantic and some may be tear jerking stories. These stories are original and steamy scenes that’ll peak your interest. Inspirational and unpredictable, this book will have you encouraged and motivated all at the same time.
In the first story, we meet two characters drifted apart by the raptures of their lives trials and tribulations. The second story follows the next two characters as they attempt to break down walls and one invites the other in. The third is about a love at first sight story between two other characters.
Follow this book as you explore each story in delight as love unfolds in each. This book is like a short film where the characters are all connected but not really connected. This book will have you believing in love and romance all over again.

Two hearts reconnaissance was a great read. And I loved how after everything Harry and Eve had been through in their lives that they were able to find themselves and each other throughout this book. Amy and Issy were so adorable. The relationship between Harry and Eve was amazing with their connection and the hardships they had to face over the years. I couldn’t picture what happened to them happening to me or my siblings but I loved this so much. And it’s all thanks to Tamara Ferguson. I can’t wait to read more.

The Player was a short book/story that I thought would be the same old story of a girl seeing a really cute hockey player then dating but after getting further into it, I loved it. It involved around the world of a hockey player his PR person and a stalker. Roy and Patience are gonna be a great couple and the connection that had from the start, ooo. But overall great read. Can’t wait to read more by Jacquie Biggar.

I’m going to continue through the rest of this book and see how many more great stories are within.

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3) this is one of my favorite ways to find new to me authors. I love when they come together and share their love of writing for us readers. Each of these stories brings something unique to the collection I found myself completely lost in each individual story world the authors created. Each one has something different to offer readers and as a whole they all had me completely hooked. The characters are complex and relatable and each storyline is incredible. I love when I can read several short stories that still pack a punch. Each author did a wonderful job of writing stories involving romance and all that we enjoy about it. I did have a few favorites such as Two Hearts’ Reconnaissance, The Player and Unexpected Packages each of these stories captured a piece of my heart. That’s not to ignore all the other great stories because I truly loved each one for different reasons. I’m giving this set a big five star review and highly recommend it. And I can’t wait to find more from these authors. Thank you for coming together for this set!

Red Riding Hood (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology – Review by Karyn Taylor

Red Riding HoodRed Riding Hood by Autumn Sand
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Red Riding Hood (Down The Rabbit Hole) is an anthology of 12 different authors writing their version of Red Riding Hood. It covers several different genre’s including romance, erotica and horror. I am not going to review all of the stories but have chosen my 2 favourites to talk about. They are Ruby by Autumn Sand and Cloaked by Lia Fairchild.
In Ruby by Autumn Sand, Ruby is a writer who is going through a divorce and is recovering from breast cancer. Her boss sends her to interview Count Edric Moreau of Paris who is known as the Wolf of Europe. Edric has taken over as the head of Moreau International and is known for seducing other millionaires and billionaires wives.
The chemistry between the 2 is instant but Ruby is determined that she will not fall for his charms. Should she be afraid of the big bad wolf?
I really enjoyed this story. In true Autumn Sand’s style it is erotic and titillating.
In Cloaked by Lia Fairchild, Eva Chacon has been searching for her grandfather for 6 years. Most of her family had been wiped out when a war with another crime family got heated. While working as a nurse she thinks she has found him. As she tries to get to know him she also comes into contact with Luke. Is Luke all he seems?
This story is quite dramatic and suspenseful and will keep you glued. Luckily it’s not a very long story and you can devour it all in one sitting. It was the first time I had read work by this author and this little tidbit has made me want more.

Irresistible Valentine was a great 5 start compilation of nine Valentine Romance stories and the third installment in the Irresistible Romance series.

Two Hearts Reconnaissance by Tamara Ferguson is about Eve and Harry. We get another great story written around Crystal Rock where these two grew up together. We go past to present as we get the back story. Can these two find their love again now that they are back in Crystal Rock?

The Player by Jacquie Biggar tells Roy’s story. Roy is a hockey player that has someone stalking him and causing bad PR for him. Patience is introduced into the story as a PR person, she is hired to help Roy. As these two spend more time together the closer they become. Will these two end up together and get a HEA? I would love more from these two.

Overall I really enjoyed all of the stories in the series. I was introduced to a couple of new authors and plan to read more from them. This collection has something for everyone to enjoy. You can read a story here and there without having to commit to reading the whole book in one sitting. Thank you to all the great authors for all the stories, I suggest 1-clicking and getting started today.

Red Riding Hood (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology has contributions from Autumn Sand (Author), Amy Allen (Author), CeeCee Elaine (Author), D.A. Stein (Author), Darlene Tallman (Author), Jess Bagnall (Author), Kay Elle Parker (Author), Laci Paige (Author), Lia Fairchild (Author), Lorah Jaiyn (Author). In these stories there is something for everyone and the genre they like to read. The stories include everything from romance, reverse harem, paranormal, and horror to name a few. A few of the authors were familiar to me while others were something new. These are quick stories and entertaining to read.
Ruby by Autumn Sand is romantic and inspiring all at once. Ruby has a lot of challenges in her life and still has so much strength to keep going. I really enjoyed this character and her story.
Cloaked by Lia Fairchild was a fantastic up to date retelling of Red Riding Hood. The main characters of Vanessa and Luke are fun to read. This is a fast paced story that I read in one sitting and left me wanting more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

When I first saw this anthology I was intrigued, I love these adult retellings of fairy tales so I was looking forward to that but for all of them to be of Red Riding Hood I wasn’t so sure but I have to say they were all great reads! I can’t believe they are all based on the same story but every single on is different! When I looked down the list of authors who feature in the anthology I was excited to see one of my favourites, Autumn Sand, along with some I have read books by and some who were new to me!

Ruby by Autumn Sand
In this author’s true style I was hooked into the story straight away – it was romantic, sensual – everything I would expect from her! I really liked Ruby, her character came alive as the author did an amazing job with her characters visualisation – I felt like I was right there at times in the story. I was in awe of Ruby at times, she had so much going in her life both health wise and in relationship but she had a strength that I admired. This was probably my favourite story out of the anthology.

Cloaked by Lia Fairchild
I love Ms Fairchild’s work so I was excited to see how she would retell Red Riding Hood. I loved the romance/thriller genre for this story and it was a really exciting read! The characters were well thought out and I really enjoyed the story. It was fast paced and thrilling. There were some good twists and turns with Vanessa (Eva) and Luke! This was definitely a favourite of mine in the anthology.

Red Riding HoodRed Riding Hood by Autumn Sand
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

You never really think that classic tale can be made even better by having a retelling, but these 12 incredible authors have done exactly that!

They have brought us along on numerous different unique journeys with different characters and captivating storylines for each! Each of these brings us a different genre whether that’s romance, fantasy, paranormal & erotica but no matter what you can be guaranteed that you will not put this read down!
I love reading anthology’s they really help you experience different authors writing in one place but I always find that one or two reads that always stays with me the most and in this case its an author I am familiar with, Autumn Sand, and a new author Lia Fairchild both of these authors have created a brilliant read that was captivating and had me hooked from the very beginning, both of these reads were different one was filled with danger, suspense and romance, and the other had romance, second chances and me feeling all emotional. I couldn’t compare them together but one thing I do know is that each had me hooked and not wanting it to end!

I loved reading this anthology and can’t recommend it enough! I can’t wait to experience these authors writing again! I highly recommend this read, you won’t want to miss it!

IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE (Irresistible Romance Book 3)IRRESISTIBLE VALENTINE by Tamara Ferguson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Irresistible Valentine (Irresistible Romance Book 3). This is an anthology written by nine amazing authors!! I love these types of books!! You get to enjoy different stories and have a chance to find new authors. Two of my favorite books in this anthology were:

Two Hearts Reconnaissance by Tamara Ferguson. I have read mostly all of Ms. Ferguson’s books and I have loved them all!!! I absolutely love second chance romances. And that is just what Eve and Harry’s book is. This was an emotional story, very good friends, lose touch and years later find their way back to each other. You can’t help but hope for Eve and Harry to find their happiness.

The Player by Jaquie Biggar. I love sports romance stories, so this one was right up my alley. A sexy, hockey player, a crazy, ex-girlfriend and a PR agent….. will his career be saved or will the ex get her way? This one is sure to keep you interested.
