(The rating was based on the top rating for individual stories in the book)

First off, I want to say that the Echo Ridge anthology books are so fun. I love the way the characters in the stories interact with characters from the other stories by authors.

My Fair Lacey - 5 stars - What can I say? this was a fantastic retelling of the classic. Ms. Rallison did a great job of transforming Lacey via Garrett, who was just the best!

You've Got Email - 5 stars - Another sweet story. Bret was such a great guy, and I loved the way he was so persistent in pursuing Maria and how he was so patient and forgiving towards her.

The Princess Bride of Riodan - 4 stars - The story was pretty good - but it felt like it tried a little too hard to fit the movie, but didn't quite make it. The quotes from the movie, while fun, didn't quite fit in all the places they were used. I think I would have liked it better as a rewrite of Roman Holiday, which was alluded to in the story

My Best Man's Wedding - 4 1/2 stars - Gentry was amazing, Jessica was kinda blind. I'm glad he persisted despite that.

While You Were Skiing - 5 stars - When I started this story, I was very curious how in the world the author would be able to twist this one. She did a great job and wrote a very fun, touching story.
