Publisher's Summary:

Love is one of those four-letter words that people like to throw around, but sometimes love can be one of the meanest and nastiest games in town.

If you have ever had your heart broken - then this audiobook is for you.

If you enjoy the taste of strong meat - then this audiobook is for you.

If you've got a sense of weird that is honed as sharp as a cutthroat's knife - then this audiobook is for you.

Here are three of the strangest love stories you have ever read.

"If Harlan Ellison, Richard Matheson, and Robert Bloch had a three-way sex romp in a hot tub, and then a team of scientists came in and filtered out the water and mixed the leftover DNA into a test tube, the resulting genetic experiment would most likely grow up into Steve Vernon." - Bookgasm

"This genre needs new blood, and Steve Vernon is quite a transfusion." - Edward Lee, author of Flesh Gothic and City Infernal

"Those who have read Vernon's fiction previously know to expect the unexpected, and to grab onto something firm and weighty as they begin the first few words of one of his stories." - Fearzone

"Steve Vernon is a hard writer to pin down. And that's a good thing." - Dark Scribe Magazine

Bad Valentines.

Three more weird and wonderful Bad Valentine's tales from one of my favorite authors. I really enjoyed the first and last tales the best. Highly recommended.

Steve did it again 3 great little stories that held my total interest until I had read them all!

I like this book.

I have had this book on my Kindle for quite so time. It is four tales of "Horror". I put "Horror" because the second one Wetside really wasn't horror. It's heroes were gay weresquids? fighting nazi zombies.Nazi was in the zombies title BUT they didn't do anything really Nazi like... only not really fighting them. It is a very bizarre story and frankly I would read another book with those two guys if I was not on a spending fast. The second story is very silly and light hearted.

I am not going to try and ruin the other three tales of horror. The underlining theme of the first three stories is love. The first tale is of a man trying to keep the sex interesting so his wife won't leave him. It goes bad. The second one as I mention is gay weresquid or maybe gay squid men and they are happy. The third one is love gone way wrong and let us say at the end it is hell in a handbasket time.

Now I like the first three tales. I was disappointed at first there was only three. However Steve Vernon has included an entire story from another book here. This one Catcall was my favorite. It starts at a spooky house with a group of kids staring up at it. It rambles along following

a child's life that has had his share of heartbreak. It reaches the climax and frankly I didn't see it coming. Pay attention. I like stories that make you pay attention.

If I was not focused on saving money, I would probably be rather reading more short stories by Steve Vernon. He has quite a way with words.

Very good!

Bad Valentines is a collection of three short stories by Steve Vernon. This was an entertaining quick read, and offered something quite different from normal horror fair.

The first story, Change of Pace, features a well meaning bumbling man who just wants to please his wife.
