'e"Publishers Weekly "I fell in love with Cover Him With Darkness just from the synopsis alone. This book did not disappoint me at all. I had to keep reading to see what would happen next. Cover Him With Darkness was a very well written book. Please read Janine Ashbless because her writing captivates you from the very first page.

King, editor of Seductress and The Sweetest Kiss "This book was truly a fantastic read. Janine Ashbless amazed me over and over again with her presentation of the sort of tribal religious mystique of Montenegro and especially with her detail of its jagged scenery. I felt I was on a tour and actually bearing witness to the stunning mountainous landscape'e"I walked along the narrowest of goat trails, could feel the drafty little church atop its cold mountain, taste the bean soup. and the dream sequences between it all'. help me. No. Gimme." 'e"Rose Caraway, author of The Sexy Librarian''s Big Book of Erotica "One of the hands-down masters; Janine Ashbless showed me that erotica can be literature.
" 'e" Violet Blue, editor of "Ashbless'e(tm) tale of ancient texts and ruthless churchmen at first seems of a piece with some Dan Brown thriller, though Ashbless is a much better writer'e"certainly far more intelligent and imaginative than the purveyor of The Da Vinci Code. A more apt comparison might be early Anne Rice; in scale and pacing this novel is pleasingly reminiscent of books like Queen of the Damned, without the tiresome existential inner monologues or cloying narrative excess that overtook Rice after the first blush of literary and financial success." 'e"Terrance Aldon Shaw, author of Erotica for the Big Brain blog "One of the most talented, original and brave authors in the erotica field" 'e"Shanna Germain "The incredibly talented Janine Ashbless."

'e"Saskia Walker "How one writer can produce story after story to such a very high standard is awesome - she puts other writers to shame. There are not enough superlatives to describe how I felt about this collection; sensual, sexy, erotic, by turns both dark and exciting, enticing, breathtaking. Believe me, if you love reading great erotic literature then you simply have to add this to your collection. I just hope that Black Lace can urge the author to pen another equally fine collection soon, as nothing else now compares.
The very best." 'e"Jade: the International Erotic Art and Literature Magazine - review of Dark Enchantment collection "Deeply erotic .

'e"Home is Where the Wine is Reviews "Janine Ashbless does an amazing job combining innocence and darkness in this story. Cover Him With Darkness is the perfect combination of romance, erotica, suspense, and action. It had me up all night reading. The extra coffee needed in the mornings was well worth it.
" 'e"Omni Lust "The prose is beautiful. I thought the book was very well written. I love the mystery of who the prisoner is before it'e(tm)s revealed and the lore surrounding it. The story is very compelling and unpredictable. While this is considered a romance, it'e(tm)s not terribly romantic." 'e"Buffy''s Ramblings "It exceeded everything I could have wanted. Reading the novel was like being consumed. I am not exaggerating, there were times I lifted my head from it and I was gasping for air.
It is that intense." 'e"F dot Leonora.
