Review: 5 STAR ENTERTAINMENT  ~  4 STAR FOR EDITING
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 01 7, 2013
This is a valuable collection easily earning 5 stars for entertainment.  While the 3 titles share a common genre and writing style, each of the stories are uniquely different.  Whether the tale takes you aboard a pirate ship or trips you up in the bayou mud, there is never a dull moment.Blake creates her characters with completeness and clarity that brings plausibility to her scenes.  Dialog and interaction are comfortably believable.  It is effortless to conjure the scenarios as the stories unfold.  The reader can smell the briny water that is splashed upon the dock or the metallic taste of blood that spills from the sword blade.There are some editorial annoyances that interrupt the stream of the story, for example the use of quotations when no one is speaking or erroneous word choices. I am sure the author meant "a flurry of movement" that caused Felicite to drop her lamb's puff and not a "FLUFFY" of movement.  Still, the stories are exciting and entertaining enough to allow forgiveness for the editorial oversights.
