RESURRECTION
A free novella-length paranormal thriller available through my
website
"RESURRECTION works from a fascinating premise: a hero
who can bring people back to the dead versus a maniac serial
killer. Sara Reinke doesn't flinch from all the implications of her
plot, much to the delight of those who crave love on the dark
side. It's a rare joy when a cross-genre romance works its
speculative ideas so well. The final confrontation was
emotionally wrenching, the perfect pay-off for the various
characters, the romance and the speculative premise." Speculative
Romance Online (June, 2006)
5 out of 5 Books: "In this thrilling romance, the reader is
pulled through a suspenseful journey of love, trust and
danger... A masterful work." Wantz Upon A Time Review (April 2006)
5 out of 5 Stars: "Resurrection has it all -- suspense, romance
and emotional turmoil. Sara Reinke has written a paranormal
story that has enchanted me."
Ecata Romance Review (April 2006)
4 out of 5 Hearts: "Reinke has written another hum-dinger of
a book...suspenseful and kept me on the edge of my seat. "
Once Upon A Romance (April 2006)
4.5 out of 6 Wands: "The is a well-written, mid-length story,
with distinct pacing akin to the scene-transitions in shows like
Law & Order... Reinke's writing is such that I -- a squeamish
sort -- found myself caught up by every word... My hunch is
this series will be a winner." Enchanted Ramblings (April 2006)

(ISBN: 1-55404-295-X)
"5 out of 5: Fans of the first book will not be disappointed in
this next installment of this stunning epic fantasy. The story
continues in its fast paced form with characters that leap from
the pages and descriptive prose that draws the reader right into
a world of elves, dwarfs, humans and magic." -- Loves Romances &
More Reviews
"4 out of 5: Book of Thieves is adventure, romance and magic.
If you enjoy an escape into the world of fantasy, it's well worth
the read." -- Once Upon A Romance Reviews
"Reinke once again borrows from old favourites to craft a story

a ton of talent, and Reinke’s hard work left me feeling as if her
sentences flow out of her pen like water from a fully opened
tap." -- Clayton Bye, Gotta Write Network
"4 out of 5 Angels: A fun read. Readers of epic fantasy should

TETHERS
Released November 21, 2006 in ebook (and trade paperback,
February, 2007) from Samhain Publishing.
"4 out of 5 Angels: Reinke has created a wonderful sci-fi that
is fast moving and incorporates characters with very human
flaws that attempt to overcome their differences to construct a
world for others to live ... [Tethers is] a fast paced book that
holds the reader from the very beginning." -- Fallen Angel Reviews
"I read Tethers in one gulp this morning. Once I started the
story, there was no stopping. Your ability to generate suspense
through character development and showing glimpses of the
past is incredible. Tethers seethes with outer action and inner
turmoil. Complex characters and their complex relationships
play out against a futuristic disaster, with hardly time to
catch a breath." -- Joyce Ellen Armond, Speculative Romance Online
"5 out of 5 Kisses: Sara Reinke possesses an enviable talent
for writing science fiction as if she is writing today’s news, and
the reader quickly forgets that this story is set in the future,
when space flight is realistic and attainable. No reader is going
to be able to put this story down unfinished; Tethers is a stay-
up-all-night-till-it’s-over-read, and then start all over again. For
action that doesn’t let up, great descriptive setting, and plot and
character development that can’t be beat, try Tethers. It’s truly
a winning choice." -- Two Lips Reviews
"4.5 out of 5 Hearts: Tethers is a tense and emotion-filled tale
that readers will have great difficulty putting down.
Personalities are drawn so vividly that they leap from the page
to haunt our thoughts long after the story has come to an end.
Well done, Ms Reinke!" -- Lil, Love Romances and More (December, 2006)

"4 out of 5 Coffee Cups: The most heart wrenching and
action packed yet. As the danger escalates, the fear jumps off

the reader has gotten to know the characters so well and truly

"4 out of 5 Coffee Cups: Just as phenomenal as the first two
books. As in all great fantasies, several storylines are moving
toward the coming together of an ultimate goal, but much is
sacrificed along the way. The emotional aspect of this story
increases as the characters move toward their destinies. These
are not one dimensional characters, but are diverse with varying
experiences and values. The people and creatures are so life-like
that they become real in your mind. The use of the ways the
different races speak together with foreign languages sprinkled
in the dialogue makes for an intense and rich reading
experience." -- Coffee Time Romance
