Another fabulous installation but some fabulous authors. I bought this book because I'll buy ANYTHING by Jodi Thomas. It didn't disappoint. The four tales are all different in characters and plots, but the basic theme is the same. Hard men in the 1800s and the strong women who can handle them. All four novellas are wonderful romances.

I only read the Jo Goodman story out of the anthology before it had to go back to the library.
I was not expecting those characters to appear!
Charming story.

I picked up this collection because I’m a fan of Alison Kent but it was nice to try new authors. I’ll admit, there were some I enjoyed more than others but I always enjoy the opportunity that novella collections provide you, being able to try authors without purchasing a novel. If you like historical cowboy romance novels this is a great chance to try some fun, funny, and sexy stories!

Jodi Thomas' novella was probably my favorite; the other three stories in the collection didn't really catch my fancy. I liked the way Thomas showed the couple slowly getting acquainted and having certain phrases they repeated to each other. This can be difficult with the limited word count of a novella, but she managed it.
