I loved this set! It was well thought out. Each book brings you a new author with her own way of writing. Descriptive is the best word I can think of, each of these authors have excellent descriptive skills. But none of them over do it, which I have seen and read monotonously. The stories are fresh and entertaining. I will admit that I had to stop after Salt Bride and go read Salt Redux (The second book in that set) to see what happened. But then I went back and read Scandalous Virtue. I'll do my best not to put spoilers. It's hard to review a great set of books without gushing about the parts you really loved! LOLUNFORGETTABLE ROGUE: This story caught me right away, the hero was someone I would have liked to have met and the heroin was someone I thought would be a great friend. Both flawed but so perfect for each other. Excellent!! The cast of characters was a very well thought out cast. Everyone has their part to play in this story and the writing made them all seem like people you would like to have known.A LADY BY CHANCE: I really enjoyed the way these characters interacted with each other. They seem to be fighting every basic instinct so that they don't have to admit that a marriage of convenience could be more. Excellent writing again, descriptive but not overly so, well thought out and flowing.SALT BRIDE: This story was fantastic! The plot twists and the characters came together in a wonderful way and made want to read more. I had to know how it all turned out. I knew there would be happiness, but how would it all come about. Great characters!! And as I said, I had to stop here and get Salt Redux, and it was fantastic as well!SCANDALOUS VIRTUE: The characters in this story were very easy to imagine. I loved Nessa, she was perfect all together! The interactions with her rake were really well written. I also enjoyed the descriptions of the settings. Very well done!All in all, I would definitely recommend this set to anyone who loves good characters, great writing, and a few plot twists. I will admit that these 4 ladies are among my favorite authors so it was not hard to read any of their books! They all share the common love of the genre and it shows through in their work. Each one a different perspective, but still of the same period. Each one weaves a story for you to tuck into like a good ragout. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!I was happy to receive an advanced reader copy of this set.
