Concordant Vibrancy 4: Inferno, by All Author
Concordant Vibrancy 4: Inferno is an eclectic collection of stories about everything from forbidden to ordinary love and pushing past the limits of burning desire. I don’t usually read anthologies, but I wanted to read Carol Cassada’s Not Always Like This. I loved this story of true love found, lived, lost and revitalized. It was a realistic expression about a young couple who marries and finds that gardens untended will wilt. Amanda and Daniel have a great life together, but the drudgery of daily toil has crept in like a weed and tangled itself around their romance. Amanda takes a subtle approach to get back on track, but can their love be rekindled, or will months of neglect burn their marriage until everything they cherished is extinguished?
I was taken in by the diversity of this fourth book. Harmony Kent’s, The Fireman, was a brilliant building of an inferno that started with a blaze and flashed back to the tender that ignited the conflict in the beginning.
Everything from a three-ring circus, Dante’s inferno, or just the day in the life of a guy enjoying a cup of joe, I really enjoyed these enticing short stories that are philosophical, thought provoking literature that stokes the flame of creativity and what ifs in life. I look forward to reading more of this series. Perfect for reading when crunched for time. Very satisfying and worth downloading.
