My Review
What a collection of stories and authors! I love the cover of this book. My favorite novella is by Amanda Cabot about a carousel carver and young woman of society that discovers having a big name is not everything. I liked the unique aspect with carving the carousel and painting. While all novellas are usually predictable, the other stories didn't stand out to me. Jane Kirkpatrick is always a good story teller and even in her short story there were details that I enjoyed.Laurie and Ann are great authors there stories in this collection just didn't intrigue me as much.
Overall this is a four novella book, don't expect a lot of depth but do expect unique situations and characters.
Jane is hosting a giveaway, check it out!
