I have to say I am disappointed by this anthology. I expected something more, but in the end, I couldn't even give it 4 stars (or 3.5).
I've read most of these authors, and I loved their books. The narrators were also great, with one exception - Aaron Shedlock, I really want to like his book, but holy fuck was his voice annoying - pronouncing the end of every fucking word like gasping, it made me mad, I was about to go crazy if I heard even one more word, at the end.
All stories sounded lovely, and cute, and heartwarming, but I just didn't click with them. However, I would love to listen to more of these types of anthologies.

Great audio, but I felt a little lost at times since I haven’t (yet) read/listened to most of the series these letters were based on, but I will rectify that hopefully soon and listen to this again. As it is, these are great introductions to these authors and the books these letters are based on.

Parts of this was REALLY hot (Looking at you Sierra Simone) and parts made me squeal (throws some side eye @ L.J. Shen) I also found some new books to read.

I got this for free. I liked the love letter aspect. But I hadn’t read some of the stories these letters came from so I felt detached. The ones that I had, I liked the little extra or the insight the shirt scene provided. As a micro-novella collection, read by the big name make narrators, this was fun.

3.5 Stars!
I picked this up after I listened to Quickies last month - and it shouldn't have taken as long to listen to as it did. This is a collection of 14 letters written (or alluded to) by the heroes of other stories in the authors' backlists - if you loved the story that the letter goes with, it's like a little epilogue... if you didn't know about the story (which was me in most of the cases), you might want to read it, though you'll definitely be spoiled on the HEA, heh. I'll be checking out a few. One of my absolute favorite epilogues is in this collection from Overnight Sensation, Jason Castro's letter to Heidi about the night he had planned a year before. I've read it, I've listened to it many times, and I can't get enough. The other stories? Well, I've read a couple and a couple more were already on my TBR, but it looks like the TBR will grow a little more...
