Savor. That's what you have to do with this anthology. Feel it in your bones. These three authors mixed these stories so you would want to read it over and over again. Shiver.
With the first story, Beyond Temptation by Kit Rocha, you are taken to back Sector Four, where Noah and Emma find each other again, and revel in what they've become. One of the sweeter of the stories of Sector Four, the gentleness of this relationship will open your eyes to what the couples of the Sector have with each other and together. Sector Four is rough and hard and fast. It's about ink, it's about life. And love.
Rocky Ride by Vivian Arend is the first time I've read this marvelous author. Don't know how I've missed her but she's on my favorites now. Inked Mitch Thompson knows what he wants from Anna Coleman, but he's going to have to go after it a different way. With lists in hand they find their way to each other, hard & soft. Date nights, ink, dirty and tough. Go with them on the ride of their lives and you'll come out wanting more and more.
Menage' story, All That Remains by Lauren Dane takes you to Paradise Village. After the wars, after the sickness, there are more men than women left, and triads are normal territory. Charlie & Hatch arrive and find that their sunshine is in the woman Summer has become. Understanding, heat, hot sex, and mixed feelings will never make you feel more welcome or loved with this story.

Kit Rocha story - 3
Viv Arend story - 2, I didn't even finish it. I didn't like the heroine.
Lauren Dane story - 4. I like this new world she has created.

Another solid story from Kit Rocha, plus got to find out about a couple of new authors as well. With so many novels having unlikeable characters and poor writing, I'm always happy to learn about something new.

Received an ARC from the authors in exchange for an honest review.
This is a review for the Kit Rocha "Marked" short story only. (The other two weren't really my cuppa.)
I loved Noah and Emma's story, and though I'm bummed anytime an O'Kane story isn't novel-length, this one was just right. Nothing felt rushed or cheated in the storytelling.
Hot and smexy as ever, Noah and Emma's relationship is on the sweeter side of the Sector 4 chain-link fence.
I look forward to revisiting the two in the Sector 4 stories to come.

So far, I've only read BEYOND TEMPTATION, the story of Noah and Emma in Sector Four. It was the reason I purchased this book. I will go back and read the others, just not right now.
I loved Noah and Emma's story. It gave me a nice taste before BEYOND JEALOUSY comes out, which is really soon (YAY!). It was great to see everyone from Sector Four and I'm sure we will see more of Noah and Emma in books to come. Like everyone in these books, they both come with a past. The difference here, is that these two have a past together. They have been separated for four years. Emma has grown up quite a bit in that time. She is no longer the little girl that Noah needs to protect. She is now an O'Kane and can take care of herself.
Noah has some things in his past that will come out and haunt him. It will take Emma a bit to get over these things. I think Noah will eventually become an O'Kane, and will fit in well with the gang. I can't wait for book four.

I liked Vivian Arend's Rocky Ride.
Was kind ambivalent on Beyond Temptation by Kit Rocha. Didn't read Lauren Dane's story.

Beyond Temptation
By
Kit Rocha
It’s taken the girls a couple of books in the Beyond Series for us to finely get a taste of Noah Lennox. And do we ever, not your typical geek squad here. Our boy Noah likes his women dirty, really dirty. Of course that is the only thing Dallas O’Kane deals in, really fucking dirty.
, her
“I’ll hurt you. I won’t want or mean to, but I’ll do it. Mark my words, Emma”
Four years ago, Noah paid for Emma’s freedom into the mountains, but things don’t always end up like they should in the Sectors. Emma Cibulski, to her Noah was her brother’s best friend, her first love, but he left her, so she could have a better life. Enter Dallas O’Kane, leader of Sector 4 and newly appointed leader of Sector 3. Dallas offers Emma a better life as an O’kane, a life that has had her happy, but with only one thing missing: Noah!
In true O’Kane fashion, this book is ballsy, sexy and yes, dirty; as only Kit Rocha can write. Loved the start of Noah and Emma’s story, looking forward to the next Beyond in the series. Summing up with this: Marked by Noah.
O’Kane for Life!

Read Kit Rocha's story only. That's the reason I grabbed it. Very saucy. Will read the others at a later time.
