great box set!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

These stories are only short, 9 stories across 164 pages, but they are so delicious!

I can't say there was a stand out MOST favourite, because they are all really good. Very well written, in a variety of tenses, in the first and third, from lots of different characters. There is no connection between the stories, save the same author and they are lesbian erotica.

Some are really sweet, some more hard core. Some are just about the sex, and some have a more romantic feel to them.

I read them all, which for a box set, is unusual for me!

But there was one that stood out as my LEAST favourite. It's written from the main character's point of view in the first person. But when she talks about her partner, she uses YOU. So it's written using the second person. I find it a really difficult way to read a book, sorry! It doesn't affect my rating, but I felt the need to mention it, and you know I'm all about the feelings!

Apart from that one, they are all really good. I find myself wanting to read more by Ms Reston, something longer, with more pages to lose myself into!

Having had a run of male/male romances, this landed right in the queue at just the right time!

4 solid stars

I didn't like Sasha!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

*insert sigh*

*insert another sigh*

I wanted to love, to even LIKE this book but I struggled, to be honest.

Mostly, because of two things.

Only Sasha has a say, and she grated on me, she really did. I can't say WHY, and I'm more annoyed that I cannot voice WHY she got my back up and got on my nerves, but she did. And because Caleb isn't given a voice, I very nearly dumped it, because she drove me nuts at points!

AND

First person/present tense. Even if caleb had been given a voice, with the book written this way, I would have enjoyed it a bit more, I think.

You could see the "situation" developing at the hospital, with the other nurse, coming at ay like a train wreck, and you can't stop, but it is nice for everything to be laid out for you once in a while. There were SOME surprises though, so i enjoyed that.

I'm sorry, a short review, but I really am struggling to make sense.

I finished it, though, and I promised myself that I would give a book 3 stars if I finished it, even if I didn't really like so.

Will I read other books in the series? Probably not, no. By this author? I'll give Ms Smith another try, certainly.

3 stars
