Bodyguards in Bed
As Meat Loaf would sing, “Two out of three ain’t bad.” However, when applied to a contemporary romantic suspense anthology and the recommendation is only one out of the three stories? Well, that kind of is bad.
The Wedding of the Century
I’m sensing a pattern here. Take two old stories, by two established authors, and give the third spot to a new-ish author. You truly get to please everyone, fans and authors, old and new alike, and generally I’ve found at least two good stories in such anthologies. This recent one from HQN is no different.
The Knitting Diaries
The Knitting Diaries is an anthology with three short stories by Debbie Macomber, Susan Mallery and Christina Skye loosely linked together by the love of knitting.
It Happened One Season
It Happened One Season is essentially a conceptual sequel to It Happened One Night, a book I reviewed when it came out three years ago. Like its predecessor, this book features four different takes on the same plotline. In this outing, the heroes are military men who have spent the last year living alone, and…
Becoming the Tycoon’s Bride
This anthology pairs two short stories that feature wealthy, powerful men who fall for ordinary heroines. I was quite bored with the first story in the collection but had better luck with the second.
The Guy Next Door
I was really looking forward to this anthology of three short romances by authors I’ve read and enjoyed before. I was especially excited about the Lori Foster and Victoria Dahl stories since I’ve read some of their romances more recently than Susan Donovan’s, so I felt a little closer to their work. Unfortunately, what I…
On the Hunt
I have been in a ghastly reading slump, my first one ever, and I’ve hated it. I thought that a nice anthology would be just the trick to bring me out of my slump, so I asked for On the Hunt, four tales of shadow creatures and the men and women who hunt them.
Winter Wishes
Even though Christmas is nearly upon us and I’ve been reading Christmas stories for a couple of months, I felt the need to add one more Christmas anthology to my reading list. With its various paranormal creatures and fun stories, Winter Wishes definitely hit the spot for me.
Midnight Kiss
A friend once told me that New Year’s Eve was more of a date night than even Valentine’s Day. She wound up with some pretty quiet New Year’s whenever there was no man in her life, but I never bought that. I always celebrated, even if all my friends and I did was go out…
A Harlequin Christmas Carol
My annual Christmas anthology orgy continues with A Harlequin Christmas Carol. The premise of this one is that three guardian angels need to help their charges find true love during the Christmas season, or they will remain wing-less apprentice angels for another hundred years. Their charges all belong to the same book club, which conveniently…
