Some I liked more, some less. I may try a full length novel from one of the authors to see if she improves on acquaintance.

I do like that the US historical romances aren't all about the noble classes. . .

I sometimes find it difficult to read a collection of short stories in one book, but this was actually captivating. I love how the authors made sure that they resolved the issues the main characters had at the beginning of each story. I always was a fan of how an arranged marriage will unfold until the end, how the main characters will learn to love each other. It’s really nice to see characters who felt so real. It wasn’t actually difficult to care about the main characters because they all had different situations that you could actually relate to, like how Edouard LeBlanc had to forego life disappointments and learn to love again. Also, how Charity and Ethan might be in different social classes but learned to see through it. Seeing all the main characters getting through all the difficulties in life and learn to love again is what I love about this collection.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in short stories with interesting characters that are very realistic. I received a copy of this book from NetGalley for an honest review.
