Three tales. Three stories, each as well written and fascinating as the one before it. It's all about kisses. In addition, the artwork is out of this world. Loved it all.

First story: Goblins seeks those who want. Want intensely. So much so that they ignore the dangers of eating food from the goblin's hands. The heroine falls in love with a goblin in disguise as a handsome young man who seeks her soul. Her grandmother and other ghosts warn her constantly. Will she survive the encounter?

Second story: A woman whose voice is cursed to kill all who hear it falls in love. Fortunately, there is a counter force that works to protect her. When she sings to her beloved he dies with all who are in hearing range. The counter force is present to help with a twist.

Third story: Demons who were once human traded their humanity for immortality. There are ramifications that seem unimportant at the time. They give up their souls and they can never procreate. A young woman named Esme is the daughter of a young woman who escaped the clutch of the queen demon. When she becomes a woman something strange happens. One of her brown eyes turns blue. What does this mean? How will this affect her life? Only her mother and a man/demon knows and work to protect her but the dangers are real and constant. What will happen to Esme and her mother?
