Review: Great Series!
Rating: 4 out of 5

Though fast-paced for the most part, this compilation of books was a great read and kept me intrigued. I couldn't really get into the 1st book - Last Man on Earth - or the third one - Arrested Desires - because they didn't seem too believable, interesting or exciting as the other two because the characters and the scenarios seemed kind of bland. The other books, on the other hand, Good with his Hands and Faire Justice kept me on the edge of my seat because the story lines seemed more fascinating and more well-developed for such short stories. I only wish that those particular books were a little bit longer in length so that I could see more character development, adventures and action for the characters. The author, Michelle M. Pillow, whose works that I've read for the first time in this series, seem to have a great skill in blending everything into her books - action, humor, sex, character and plot development and the ability to draw sympathy from its readers in bad scenarios like in Arrested Desires with the evil husband who was going through a mid-life crisis. Overall, the series of books were thoroughly enjoyable. I would've given the box set 5 stars instead of 4, if I had found the Last Man on Earth and Arrested Desires to be more interesting. For the most part, the box set was a winner, especially for the price. I will definitely be picking up more books by this author in the near future.
