Review # 1 was written on 2017-10-22 00:00:00 Vladislav Vilensky I'm basing my review and rating on the first story in the anthology. Yesterday's Magic by Jacquie D'Allesandro - Lady Amanda Pratt saw the beautiful box in the window of Gibson's Antiques and curiosities, but the store was closed for lunch. When she hurried back to buy the box, she found that it had already been purchased by Maxwell Wolford, the Earl of Dorsey. Amanda attempted to buy the box from him, but he was not interested. Maxwell was a recluse who rarely ventured into town since people referred to him as "the Crazed Killer of Cardiff" after the death of his brother, the previous Earl. But the day after obtaining the box, Maxwell ends up on Amanda's doorstep requesting her help in opening the ornamental box. This was a cute story about the box bringing the hero and heroine together. I was afraid I was going to be reading about a big misunderstanding near the end of the book, but the author chose a cute twist to wrap up the story. My rating: 4 Stars.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-12-25 00:00:00 Harlan Frolich The Stud is the twenty-first stand-alone novel by American author, Barbara Delinsky. Jenna McCue is the president of a large chain of successful department stores. Still single, and with no intention of getting married, she decides her life will be complete if she has a baby. Rather than take chances, she settles on a known sperm donor: her best friend�s brother. Spencer Smith is a professional adventurer, always away doing something exciting. After careful consideration, Spencer agrees to help Jenna out, but with one condition. He will donate his sperm, yes, but not in the clinical surrounds of a doctor�s surgery. No, he insists on donating in the traditional way. What happens next is fairly predictable, until they get on the plane. Better than Delinsky�s Bonnie Drake/Billie Douglass novels, but not as good as her later ones. Sexy and sweet.
