The Lagniappes are a collection of short stories that give more info about the individual House of Crimson & Clover characters. I can't get enough!

Flourish: Flourish is a charming tale of Anne Fontaine's first contact with Nicolas Deschanel. We get a glimpse of Nicolas' naughty side before he realizes he is attempting to seduce his own sister. I love Anne even more after reading Flourish.

Fire & Ice: Fire & Ice is a mischievous tale of Remy and Fleur Fontenot. While Fleur is getting herself into trouble, Remy makes a new friend.

Shame: Shame by Sarah M. Cradit is the story of Jonathan St. Andrews. I have never been a fan of Jon, thinking of him as cruel and hateful. I knew there was obviously a reason for his darkness, but never suspected the extent of his internal torture. Changed by love, destroyed by loss, will Jon ever be whole again?

Surrender: Surrender tells the story of Oz and Ana, friends falling in love for the first time. I love these two characters together and individually. They make the most beautiful couple but even better friends.

Dark Blessing: Dark Blessing is a short story that gives us a look at the Landry triplets. Most of the story focuses on Kelley and his lifelong desire to become a vampire. With a little help from Queen Edith, he may finally get his chance. I can't wait to see how this story plays out in the House of Crimson & Clover spinoff.

Lagniappes Collection I A House of Crimson Clover Short Story Collection The House of Crimson Clover edition by Sarah M Cradit Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

I love every single one of Sarah's stories!

Shame- After reading The Storm and the Darkness, I wondered why Jonathan St. Andrews felt such incredible darkness. After reading Shame, I understand why. "There is no meaning to be found in others...None. There is nothing but ourselves and our darkness. I knew this already, but I'll not ever let myself forget it again." (74) After Jon's story, I feel more empathy for him and his dark past. Once again, an excellent tale from Ms. Cradit!
Surrender- I absolutely love the House of Crimson & Clover series. Ana is one of my favorite characters because on the outside she's a woman who seemingly has it all- beauty, wealth, education- and yet on the inside she's deeply flawed & her own worst enemy. Nicholas is a trip as usual, Oz is an all around stand up guy, just like his cousin Clancy (who was introduced in this short story).

However, I feel the need to warn readers who haven't read a novel by Sarah M. Cradit- once you read one, you'll quickly devour the rest of the series, then you'll have to wait patiently for the next. Fortunately Sarah doesn't make her readers wait too long for the next novel!

Flourish- Beyond Dusk Anne is A House of Crimson and Clover Novelette which may be read as a stand alone. However, the series is fantastic and once you read one of the books in the series, you'll surely read them all.

This novelette tells the story of Anne Fontaine, Adrienne and Nicholas Deschanel's half sister, who travels to New Orleans to meet with Adrienne. Unlike her half siblings who reside in an exquisite plantation home, Anne grew up in a shack in the Louisiana bayou. Now that her mother is dead and her brother is moving on to Baton Rouge, Anne no longer feels tied to her childhood home. However, meeting with Adrienne is no easy feat. In fact, Anne has to communicate through Adrienne's husband, Oz Sullivan, and her brother Nicholas Deschanel, in order to speak with her sister. Over the years a number of women have claimed familial ties to the incredibly wealthy Deschanel family, so it makes sense that Oz and Nicholas are weary.

Nicholas follows Anne to a bar and attempts to fill her with liquor because alcohol after all is truth serum, and he's convinced that she's simply another con artist. However, when Nicholas meets Anne, he realizes that there's something different about her and finds her strangely attractive. After multiple shots of liquor, Nicholas drives Anne back to the Deshanel plantation, where Anne has an intense reaction. Nicholas realizes that Anne is in fact a Deschanel, for supernatural powers is a family trait.

I enjoyed Beyond Dusk Anne which was a quick but powerful read that allowed me to get to know Anne's fascinating story. I definitely recommend this novelette as well as the Crimson and Clover series as a whole.

Fire and Ice- Fleur Fontenot has the gift of ice and her twin brother has the gift of fire. The Fontenot twins are used to getting what they want, but in the Fire and Ice novella, neither do. Fire and Ice is a quick, exciting read and I was only disappointed when it ended.

Dark Blessing- I loved meeting new characters in Dark Blessing. Kelley Landry has 2 identical brothers who know what they want to do- one's a scholar and the other is an athlete. Kelley on the other hand is still researching vampire lore like he and his brothers did when they were kids. When Kelley meets Edith, a fellow vampire researcher and a very good one at that, she convinces him to travel with her to meet an actual vampire. I'm curious to find out what happens in the sequel because Dark Blessing is so interesting.
Flourish
I've always wondered what happened between the space of Adrianne leaving Anne and coming home. Well, apparently, Anne had the same curiosity. In this excerpt you get to find out how Anne comes "home" and leads so much more than she could have ever, had she stayed in the bayou. This is a quick read and, as all of these books do, fill in the blanks! I love these stories!!!!

Surrender
Do you remember your first time? Were you excited? Were you scared? What happens if you were such an introvert, you couldn't see the love, one of your best friends has for you? Ana Deschanel is just coming of age. It's hard enough to cross the threshold of girlhood to adulthood, but she is faced with the man, she thought was her best friend, becoming the one to take her over that threshold. Fall in love with Ana and Oz's story! I know I did ).

Shame
Jon St. Andrews is a kid just trying to graduate...better, yet, survive high school. He is bullied by none other than the most popular boy, Lionel Shepard. But what Lionel doesn't know, is while he has the most beautiful girl in school, on his arm, her mind could not be further from him. After a particularly bad fight between Carla and Lionel, Carla wonders down to the beach. By chance, it is Jon's beach. A chance meeting or did the fates intervene? A heartbreaking tale of love, betrayal, fear, and the biggest secret that may just tear Jon St. Andrews apart, lies ahead in Shame.

Fire & Ice
What a tasty little extension of our beloved Crimson and Clover series. This little gem is properly titled as you will find yourself heating up and in need of some serious cooling off! Quick read and well worth it!
I purchased this at a discount, also based on the good reviews here, yet was shocked at the poor quality. Rarely has steered me so wrong. I found the storyline thin. At best, it felt like I was dropped into the middle of a paranormal soap opera written by a teenager. I couldn't get much past 15% of the read. Do not recommend.
Okay
Sarah Cradit has become one of my favorite authors. I hope she continues to expand The House of Crimson and Clover. I liked learning about the lesser know characters from her series. I hope that she develops a storyline to include them in it.
