Ratings and reviews

I had already read three of the books in this collection when they were originally released. This set gives a great variety of some good stories. Below are my reviews from a couple of the included stories. Almost a Bride: I loved this story. Tara and Reid were the perfect heroine and hero in this book. I could be best friends with both of them if they were real people. After Tara's engagement ends when it's discovered that he's been having an affair with one of his students, Reid is there to support Tara. I really enjoyed how Tara decides to evaluate how she has been living her life and discovers why she has always been the one to take the safe road in life. The Honeymoon Trap: This was a really fun story. Gamer/boat builder plus gamer/costume designer booked into the honeymoon suite as a gag by his brothers. I loved both Zoey and Eli. Their characters were wonderfully written, flaws and all. I was really rooting for them to get their HEA through the whole story. It was a very fun story to read, and I would love to read more about these two.

I love series of books, it's so enjoyable to read books that have a similar style, family, subject running thru them

Just like a fairy tale.... everything feels so right...N placed perfectly towards the end...loved them all....
