Collection review 4 Stars
This is a collection of short stories. I’ll be reviewing each of them for this post.
The Merry Mistake by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward
4 Stars
Piper mistakenly thought Mason was a homeless man in need of
a meal. Thinking she was doing something
nice she got him some food only to be yelled at not to judge people. Mason never thought he would see Piper again
after going off on her until Christmas Eve she shows up at his father’s door
with a pie. It’s the beginning of a
beautiful relationship
This was a nice short story about a really cute first
meetings leading into a relationship. There
weren’t any pacing issues even though it was only 44 pages. I wouldn’t mind reading another book with
these two to see where they end up.
Finding Perfect by Colleen Hoover
4 Stars
From Daniel’s POV his Christmas at home with his friends and
family. You should definitely have read
the 3 other books in the series.
I enjoyed this story but was very confused. I have never read any books by Colleen Hoover
but this one makes me want to read the rest of the books in the series. Even with this I could easily follow along
with the story. Will be checking out the
other books ASAP!
A Rock Chick Christmas by Kristen Ashley
2 Stars
Christmas with Starks.
A glimpse to see what Ava and Rock are up to this holiday season.
This book confused me so much. There were so many characters mentioned that I
couldn’t keep track of who was who. This
was another one where you needed to have read the books in the series which I
get but even though most of these books are part of a long standing series I
could still follow along. This was not
one of those. The writing and pacing in
the story were spot on but I probably won’t be checking out the rest of the series.
Just Say When by Jill Shalvis
5 Stars
Can love conquer all?
That is the question James has about Julia. They have been dating for 6 months but she
never spends the night. This makes James
question if all they have is sex. He
wants more than that but isn’t sure how to get what he wants without pushing
her.
I loved these two. They
both had issues in their past that has clouded their reaction to a
relationship. Once they talk it out it
works out in the end but getting there was an interesting journey. The writing was spot on like always. As well as the pacing. Even though it was a short story it didn’t
feel rushed in any way. This makes me
want to go and reread the series.
The Pact by Elle Kennedy
4 Stars
Logan and Grace haven’t had a lot of time together since he
entered the NHL. They both feel like
they are drifting apart and neither wants that to happen. After taking some advice from a friend Logan
books them into a nice B&B for New Years Eve. What he doesn’t plan for is getting trapped
in the car during a blizzard.
I’ve read the whole series these two came from and I loved
seeing a short story with them in it. Even
though I have read the series I don’t think you need to read the rest of them
to understand this story. There weren’t
a lot of extra characters it was mostly just Logan and Grace. It was worth reading and I enjoyed it.
The Package by K. Bromberg
5 Stars
Jules Jilliland is having a crap day. She’s been dumped, rear-ended, and fired from
her job. She has one last task at her
job to complete and she gets stuck in an elevator.
I really enjoyed this story.
The story was only 32 pages. There
isn’t a lot you can do in so few pages but this story felt way longer than 32
pages in a good way. It is a really good
beginning to a new story and I really really want the continuation of Jules and
Archer’s story. This was also one of the
few stories that I didn’t feel like I was missing something while reading the
story. Highly recommend this story.
Overall this was a really nice collection of stories but to really enjoy all of them you will need to have read the book/series they are associated with.
