December 2007: 2 Reviews!  Well, they're at Amazon, so they're reader reviews, but hey, we'll take what we can get.  Reviewers say, "The world-building in all the stories is the biggest factor contributing to the five-star rating. Every author paints the world as existent and whole, without filling paragraphs of description and explanation that take the reader out of the story."  Then also: "If you like romances mixed with 'what could be's' then you'll like this book."  Check them out at Amazon: Sum3: The 2006 Zircon Anthology of Speculative Romance.

November 2007: Review!  Karen Nutt gives you the full run-down of SUM3 for ParaNormalRomance.

June 2007: Review!  Mike Gleason, a reviewer who focused on Pagan work, says, "If you enjoy romance with an edge; if you like speculative stories with some romance, this book is for you."

April 2007: Review!  Annie at Single Titles says, "Sum3 is an excellent and riveting collection of tales, all of which will certainly hold the eager reader in thrall. With most of the anthology in the Sweet category, two could be classified as mildly sensual. Varying from contemporary urban fantasy to historical fantasy, from high to mythic fantasy, to science fiction, nearly every taste can be sated, and at the same time will leave readers thirsting for the next collection. Sum3 is a fine addition to any reader's Keeper Shelf."  Read the whole review: http://www.singletitles.com/7-reviews?type=&id=231
