Review

I love anthologies so I was excited to read this one. Unfortunately I was pretty disappointed with it. The first story by Roxanne St. Claire was boring, I had a really hard time finishing it. I can’t name anything specific, I just didn’t like it. The characters were boring and I’ve seen it all before.

I did enjoy the second story by Jill Shalvis. I had actually read the book that came before this one about the first friend to fall in love, so I was happy to finally see what happens with Nicole. I wasn’t disappointed either. It was a classic Jill Shalvis story, with very likeable characters and a great storyline. And my favorite thing about Jills books is that they’re funny and this one was too. I loved Ty Patrick O’Grady, he was hilarious and sexy to boot.

The third story by Maureen Child was just ok. Not boring like the first but I didn’t love it like the second one. The characters were ok, sex scenes were decent and the story was ok too. I just couldn’t get into it the way I could with Jill Shalvis’s story.

I give this book 3.5 Moons, only because I loved the second story, without it I would have rated a little lower.
