Summary: Get over it!
Comment: Unfortunately this book takes us back to the bad old days of the ooey gooey "romance" between the 250-year old Angel and his widdle Buffy -- the girl he abandoned "for her own good" five years ago. Joss Whedon got over it, I got over it, and so should the folks who publish these books. I know Nancy Holder can do better than this. Can we please see some adult Buffy, with adult relationships, instead of continuing to extend this juvenile pairing well past its sell-by date?

Summary: Out of Touch
Comment: Nancy Holder proves once, again, that she is out of touch with the Whedonverse. The Buffy/Angel relationship (such as it was) ended years ago. I am looking for books about Buffy that help the character move on, as she did in the show. I will never, ever, purchase another Nancy Holder book again. I should have learned the last time.

Summary: Heat is great
Comment: I've read all the reviews & I've read the novel. I think Nancy Holden does a good job of keep the Novel as though it could be apart of the regular BtVS/Angel Universe. It is set in the early 7th season of BtVS(after "Him" but before the Watcher's Council was destroyed)/and early 4th season Angel(after Cordy's return, but before "the Rain Of Fire" sega).
As for the Buffy/Spike relationship vs. Buffy/Angel relationship. Buffy/Spike relationship is like a Fire storm, -- very hot & Passionate, but destined to die out, in a quick blase of glory(as it Did in "Chosen"). By the way (B/S shippers)Buffy never said she loved Spike, until the just before Spike died in "Chosen". Buffy/Angel are described in the novel as being "Soul Mates", which they are. Their relationship is more like the Sun -- intense, bright, very hot, not always scene, but always there.
Nancy Holden does a very good job of giving the novel a feel of well written BtVS/Angel Crossover. She does a great job of connecting the novel to past events in both series(from up to 4 yrs. earlier to very recent(about 1 week)in the past). My only "complaint" is that the novel starts fairly slowly, then builds through the chapters. But then some really great movies have done the same(like the LOTR trilogy). The novel almost feels like a missing crossover of both series.
Great Novel for Adult BtVS & Angel fans by Nancy Holden.
