Unmasking Kelly - N. J. WALTERS
Kelly loves working at the pub and is good at her job. She has been in love with her boss Liam since the first time she saw him. She has a plan to give Liam something to think about, if only she can go through with it.

The annual Halloween party at Liam's pub is in full swing when the beautiful woman walks in. She is wearing a sexy little costume that knocks his socks off and brings out his protective side. He will make her his before the night is over and he plans on keeping her.

Kelly has been dreaming of Liam and would give up just about everything for one night with him. She is excited about the night before her and Liam's request only served to heighten her senses. She plans to serenade him with a sensual strip tease but he turns the tables on her.

Liam plans to get his little seductress upstairs to his apartment but she has other plans. She can't let him see her without her mask so she tries to flee the scene only to be caught at the door. Liam has one more surprise for his sexy seductress that blows her away.

I loved this story. I've read other stuff by this author and she is fast becoming an auto buy for me. I would've loved to see a longer story with these characters; they have so much more they could say.

Velvet Strokes - SUSIE CHARLES
Tom made a mistake letting Elizabeth walk out the door two years ago. He has been commissioned to produce a set of three paintings and they want his original model in them. Now he has to convince her to not only model for him again but that he loves her and isn't planning on letting her go.

Elizabeth was heartbroken when Tom chose his family over her. She has moved on with her life and opened a gay club where she dances. The club is in trouble and as much as she hates to admit it, she needs Tom's money. She insists that it is strictly a business arrangement hoping to protect her heart when she walks away again.

With the help of his cousin Richard, Tom has finally seen the light and realizes how bad he hurt Elizabeth when he let her walk away two years ago. The tension between the two of them is evident from the beginning but it takes Richard's probing to make Tom spring into action.

While the characters were complex, they were still interesting. Both of the main characters showed growth from where they were two years ago and were able to talk through their issues, something they couldn't have done in the past. Overall, I enjoyed this story.

Edible Delights - JAN SPRINGER
Max and Nick have never forgotten their assistant Allie. They were all part of a ménage relationship and the boys loved her deeply. She decided to leave to pursue her own career. They let her go but they have never gotten over her. Thanks to her sister, Max has the perfect plan to get her back into their bed.

Allie has worked hard to make Edible Delights a success. She has some of the most unique edible underwear items on the market, now she just needs a major distributor to partner with. Now if she can just get through the business meeting where her products will all be on display, she might just walk out of there with the deal of her life. She never expected the distributors to be the two men she walked away from but never stopped loving.

I loved how Allie, Max and Nick conducted their business. The men were super sexy and I love the surprise they had for Allie in the dining room. She has grown up since she left them and she is now a shrewd negotiator. She got everything she wanted and more, plus her men back.

The three of them are hot together and make the pages sizzle. I loved the glimpse of their first encounter, it was just enough that it doesn't over shadow the story. The combination of flavors of the edible underwear sound yummy and the designs sound not only unique but beautiful too.

I really enjoyed this short story but felt that it was too short too. I would've loved to read more about this trio.

Overall I really enjoyed this book of short stories. I would've loved for the first one and last to be longer, they were so much fun. I think the first story is my overall favorite one though. I give Overtime, Under Him 3½ Flaming Hearts.
