I had the pleasure of getting to read an anthology of new to me authors. Here are brief reviews for each of the four books in the collections.
Erinβs Kiss β 3 Cocktails
Definitely a fun novella that is part of a series. There were parts that didnβt make sense for me because I felt like I was missing information probably contained in other books. Erin and Turk are fun main characters and the scenes between them are very hot. There seemed to be a little too much detail in the bedroom scenes, wordiness that almost made it hard to follow what was happening. Sexy time also seemed to overpower the rest of the story.
Mistaken β 4 Cocktails
I loved the premise of this book! A male writer of erotic fiction connects with a super feminist teacher. The story was just right in the length department with fun characters and good sexy time. There is a great balance between the sexy time and the rest of the story.
Burn for Me β 4 Cocktails
This is a book with great characters and a good story. Itβs definitely more relationship based than just a romance and itβs great watching Tate resolve his issues so that he can save his relationship with Ali. This is a book that I would have liked to have been a little bit longer so that we could see what was going to happen next.
Tangled β 4 Cocktails
I loved the main characters, Cassie and Nate, and the sweet story of instant attraction becoming a friendship then a love story. There is just a touch of suspense and a great happily ever after.
This was definitely a good anthology and would be a great way to meet some new authors.
