Townsend "rhyannon" (Tooele, Utah USA) - While this book is a reprint of two former excellent works by Jayne Ann Krentz (writing as Jayne Castle) it is NOT Amaryllis or Zinnia. Those two books are set on the fictional planet of St. Helens in the city-state of New Seattle and are part of a trilogy ending with Orchid. After Dark, the first in the Harmony duo, is the first story in a new series about para-archaeologist Lydia Smith and her mate Emmett London. The second in this series is the newly printed After Glow another excellent futuristic by Castle. These stories are set on another planet named Harmony. I recommend these stories highly... if nothing else, read the stories to meet Fuzz :o) Bridal Jitters is from the former Charmed Anthology... it is also based on Harmony Planet, but is not part of the Lydia Smith series. From Publishers Weekly Readers who like their tales romantic, suspenseful and spiced with "a paranormal twist" will welcome Harmony, which includes the 2000 novel After Dark and the 1999 novella "Bridal Jitters" by bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz writing as Jayne Castle. Both take place on Harmony, a future world of psychics and ghost hunters: a para-archeologist and a studly dissonance-energy para-resonator team up to solve a murder and uncover mutual passion in the former; in the latter, a woman considers calling off the upcoming wedding that will cap her two-year marriage of convenience to a business partner ("a tough, sleek male") because she loves him but he, too, has hidden desires. Copyright 2002 Cahners business Information, Inc. Book Description Harmony is a planet in the far future, aglow with an amber light and the psychic energy of its inhabitants. It is here that Jayne Castle casts her spell-over the men and women brave enough to love in a world unlike any we have ever seen before. In this unforgettable volume are two very enchanting tales set on Harmony After DarkThe New York Times bestselling novel of romantic suspense with a paranormal twist. A para-archaeologist and one of the most dangerous men on the planet heat up a murder investigation with a passion that cannot be extinguished-or denied Bridal JittersFrom the national bestselling anthology, Charmed. An official marriage-of-convenience between paranormal business partners is almost called off-because of love. "Jayne Castle, one of the pioneers of the futuristic sub-genre, continues to set the standard against which all other such books are judged." (Affaire de Coeur) "Writing under Jayne Castle, Jayne Ann Krentz takes her trademark combination of witty, upbeat action, lively sensuality, and appealing characters to [a] unique, synergistic world."
