Proceeds to benefit VETSports

A nice array of stories. Some better than others...



ROCKIN' THE SUITE - Rhonda James
3.5 Stars...this one was super sweet. A little abrupt in the ending in my opinion, but still cute.

THE MAIN EVENT - Sapphire Knight
2.5 Stars...found this one a bit hard to get into, to be honest. It did end on a sweet note, though.

DUET (ROCKSTAR #8.5) - Anne Mercier
4 Stars...I enjoyed this one a lot. I appreciated the author gave us a bit of a who's who so I was less confused and didn't have the feeling I was dropped into the middle of a story.

AS THE TIDE TURNS - BT Urruela
4 Stars...One of my favorites from the collection and really wish it had been a full-length story, or at least had an epilogue.

A POWERS PLAY (A POWERS THAT BE SHORT) - Harper Bentley
5 Stars...LOVED this one. Awesome from start to finish.

CRAVED (BOUND TOGETHER 2.5) - Lacey Black
1 Star...I didn't like this one AT ALL. Not a fan of a dude that f@cks a ton of OW while lusting after the heroine because he is too much of a pussy to go after her. Yucko...

DICED - Ginger Scott
2 Stars...Second chance romance that was WAY too short to do this plot justice. NO groveling and his excuse for leaving her for ten years was LAME. No way would I have let this douchenoodle back into my life.

TEMPTED TIMES THREE - M Never
4 Stars...Sexy as F@ck MMF. Not much more to say. Loved it!

FREEING HIS DARK EDGES - Kane Caldwell
4.5 Stars...SUPER sweet and had a bit of a KA feel to it.

FORBIDDEN ATTRACTION - CA Harms
2 Stars...This was just OK. Again this one ended SO abruptly. I know these are supposed to just be very short little stories, but this one ended like the author took a break, and just never came back to finish the story.

FORBIDDEN - KL Kreig
4.5 Stars...This one was SMOKIN hot. Damn, I am STILL fanning myself. Alas, this was just a short little taste of a new duet coming in 2017.

A WILD CHASE - BB Reid
1 Star...OH GOD another douchenoodle Boss that sleeps with different women EVERY night. Yuck didn't give a shit about either of these two characters.

BLINK - Molly McLain
4.5 Stars...I loved this one. It has some nice angst for such a short story.

CLOSE ENCOUNTERS - Alison Bliss
3 Stars...This one was just OK. Annoying miscommunication at it's finest. It would have been better had it been longer (IMO.)

TAKING GREER - Winter Travers
1 Star Ugh, this one was a total miss. I think the names "APOLLO" and "GREER" were repeated gazillion times in this super short story. Had this been a drinking game I would have been drunk by the third page!

A SHOWER FOR...THREE? - Allie Juliette Mousseau
1 Star...Way too short and the writing felt clunky to me. Didn't like anything about this one.

So as you can see there is a little something for everyone in this collection. I loved the idea of all the stories connecting around this one event, and really it's for a good cause, so what have you got to lose by adding this one to your TO READ list. ;D
