Considering the title, I shouldn't have been disappointed, but I was. The first story, "Her Lover's World", by Rachel Carrington, was about a woman who falls in love with the King of Atlantis (the fates have condemned him & his people to roam through time portals, looking for the new Atlantis). It was so cliched & corny that I was embaressed.
"The Lady of the Seals" (a selkie, perhaps?) was almost as bad. In both stories, a love child was the result of the love affair, & the ending was happy/sappy. The third, by Shiloh Walker, was an extended menage a trois. I've been around for awhile, but how people can survive so much, and live through so many extended orgasms is beyond my comprehension. In short, one dies, becomes a ghost, & encourages the other two to get together again. The sex was intense, graphic, & just too much - it took away from the storyline. But then again, it might be your thing.
