Fighting For Our Forever....Baby style by Heidi McLaughlin 3 stars

I may have been lost because I'm not up to speed on this series. But this short story was cute and fun even if you don't know all the key players.


Pure Rose by Kathy Coopmans 4 stars

This sexy second chance romance stars two single parents. Pure Rose is complete with an overwhelming lust that can only be sated by these two finally giving into their chemistry.


Waking Up to Forever by Amy Briggs 3 stars

Waking Up to Forever is a unique fairytale rewrite. Down to the fairy godmother...I'm unifrom! 😆 All kidding aside this sweet story has everything it's counterpart does. A villian, a curse, and a happily ever after!


Crush by Adriana Locke 5 stars

What a freaking tease! Adriana Locke knew exactly what she was doing when she put Linton in this anthology. She was teasing, stroking, and caressing the reader into a state of bliss. She had me panting and sated. She had me glassy eyed and ready for more and then bam! Done. Over. No more. Just enough tease to make you on edge and enough cliffhanger to have you begging. It's a good thing I love her and this series. Otherwise I would pout (okay, pout more!).


Love, Rose by Shari J. Ryan 5 stars

Talk about a rocky start! I wasn't sure how this quick story was going to leave a smile on my face but Shari J. Ryan accomplished that and more. I'm more invested in their ever after than I thought possible. I would love an update on the not so happy though. Say a raging case of herpes or a date that justifies my personal hatred for the scum. Alas, Shari must be far more classy than I, I would have added a karmic kick. Don't worry though this ending will melt away all your anger and worries!


Reunion by Julie A. Richman 5 stars

Nice move there, Ms. Richman! She definitely had me fooled. I love the outcome better than the awesome lead up! Reunion is a revenge scenario and a bonus connection in one. As a misfit myself, it was fun to see all my Reunion dreams come true. 😆

This story was surprising in the best way possible. It has everything you need to make a connection to the characters and be invested in the outcome. I thoroughly enjoyed this Reunion! (Winky face) I'm confident you will too!


Coming Home by HJ Bellus 5 stars

You don't have to know these characters to appreciate this story and fall in love with them. I'm sure it only adds to the feels. Coming Home is bittersweet. Life isn't always what we planned or hoped. Annie learns that the hard way. She also learns that love comes in many forms and always has your back. This quick story made me fall for characters that have been keeping my kindle full but I've never turned the pages on. Looks like that needs to change!


Roses for Rachel by Sam JD Hunt 3 stars

This quirky tale of instalove has a twist. A push from their dead spouses lead these two to find their ever afters.


Finley and Sebastian, Wages of Sin series by Tara Leigh 4 stars

I'm new to the Wages of Sin world but If be lying if I said I wasn't going to go out and get them. I'm just jealous that Sebastian and Finley don't have a full novel. Hot hate and lust full these pages. Uncertainty and distrust make for an exchange that will melt your panties and drive you need for more!


Whiskey & Roses by Kaylee Ryan 4 stars

The cool thing about the stories that continue a series or give glimpses is that you can add them to your TBR. Whiskey & Roses has me intrigued for Hey Whiskey. Two weddings? Sounds like a mess and a romantic one at that. Even having no prior experience with the characters, it's easy to love and appreciate them.


Where I Escape by Michelle Dare 4 stars

I knew Cy's story and therefore a bit of Parker, Tori, and Blair's. Where I Escape is Blair's turn at a happily ever after. It's been building for years. You can feel their need. The longing. It was cathartic to see Finn and Blair the way they should be!


Capturing Tomorrow- Kingsley Series 5.5 by Haylee Thorne 4 stars

A bachelorette weekend that even Kingsley newbies can appreciate. Fun times and men who can't stay away. I had a blast riding along in the limo and look forward to the I dos.


Line 39 by Verlene Landon 3 stars

I would negotiate line 39 myself. Rules are made to be broken after all. I would definitely read more about Lena and Rue. I need to keep my eyes open for their up coming book.


Coming Up Roses by Michelle Windsor 3 stars

Talk about an adventure! The plane trip that changes her life. This steamy morsel will definitely make you think about hopping on a plane as soon as possible!


Mine to Protect by Kristin Mayer 3 stars

Protect and love. Mine to Protect has a bit of trouble and a strapping former military hottie ready to lay down his life for The One.


The Way We Fell (a Legacy series novella) by MJ Fields 4 stars

I feel like a broken record but I definitely enjoyed this story without having read any of the series it hails from. The Way We Fell is sexy and sweet with emphasis on the sweet. Fairytales can come true!

Ring Me by Rebecca Brooke 4 stars

I'm converted. I officially need Jaded Ivory in my life. I'm going to have to track down these books. Cole made me a believer. Sweet and stressful, Ring Me was just the perfect ending to this anthology.
