A delightful collection!

This delightful collection of historical romance novellas touches on numerous themes, from Pixies and magical interference in the love lives of couples, to second chance stories, to couples overcoming tragedies in their past, to intrigue and mysteries being solved, to deceit and misdirection to mischievous cats! There is truly something for everyone. The stories have various “heat” levels, clearly described in the summaries, but all are well written, with interesting plots and solid HEAs. One of the lovely things about an anthology like this one, is that it gives the reader a chance to taste something written by an author not previously experienced. The reader may just discover a new favorite author! I highly recommend adding this collection to your TBR pile. A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book and my comments here are my honest opinion.
