Stephanie Laurens wrote a story about Sebastian and Tabitha who are set on a mission to uncover a person who is blackmailing young women newly engaged and who each had some sort of unsavory occurrence in their past that, were it known, would upend the betrothal. I also realize that this same book has been reviewed recently here by another review, so let me just give you my thoughts on these four stories. I have never had the privilege of being exposed to that kind of writing challenge before and it was delightful, to say the least. Each of the four authors had this to work with and the rest was pure imagination and story crafting on their part.
The blurb stated above is the plot that was the winner in a contest put on by this publisher. Much to my surprise, I liked all four novellas and read every word. But this time I was having to wait for some prescriptions to be filled at the pharmacy and I found myself without my eReader of a book to read (which almost never happens) and I picked this one up, saw it had a 2011 publication date, and decided to take a chance since the first two authors are two of my favorites. My experience has been checkered at best–I like a couple of the stories usually, then can’t get interested in the others and ultimately do not finish them.
Let me first state that I am NOT a fan of anthologies in any way.
