Sweet and filthy which is such a satisfying combo! I enjoyed Melody Carlisle’s narration but weirdly (for me) preferred her male character voices to her female character voice. Possibly because it’s too close to her normal voice (or at least how I’m used to hearing her on podcasts)? But still enjoyable!

A bit of a mix with most of the fairy tale-inspired stories tending towards bittersweet rather than HEA. My favorites were The Prince and the Troll by Rainbow Rowell and The Wickeds by Gayle Forman. The narration was fantastic.

Favorite stories were The Reunion Dinner by Jesse Q Sutanto and A Classic Case by Alicia Thompson. Overall an enjoyable read perfect for when you need to listen to something for an hour or so as most of the individual stories were about that length.

Funny, insightful, and relatable. I tandem read this one because memoirs work best for me in audio. But a print or ebook copy is also essential because some of the interviews, footnotes, and gray boxes aren’t included in the audio.

I was highly entertained by this book. The sexual tension was incredibly well done. And I love a working class (well sort of) hero and a non-conventionally attractive heroine. Also I adore a smart heroine and Winnie’s linguistic knowledge spoke to my nerdy heart.

That being said, this book does need to be read with the knowledge that it was written in the 1990’s kept firmly in mind. There are the expected issues with consent. And at first I thought this was going to make some brilliant points about class and privilege…but that got hand waved by in favor of a more whimsical fairy tale ending. But truly for a book of its time, very well done.

I started reading this as an ebook but quickly abandoned that in favor of the audio. I cannot stand trying to read phonetically spelled accents in print. Steven Crossley’s narration fixed this for me and is fantastic in and of itself.

Absolutely love the mix of humor and heat. The voice acting is fantastic. This was a re-read for me.

This was a re-read for me as I read both of these in print individually. They’re both a soapy good time!

3.75 stars overall for the book

Like all anthologies, this was a bit of a mixed bag. I liked Christina Lauren’s story the best. Abby Jimenez, Jasmine Guillory, and Sariah Wilson also had very good contributions. Surprisingly the two authors I was most looking forward to just didn’t hit for me.

CW: With Any Luck by Ashley Poston has consent issues. The fmc was too drunk to remember having sex the next day let alone consent. It’s meant to be a very light hearted story and mostly is but unfortunately this is something I can’t just whimsy whimsy whimsy my way past.
