To start, all of these ladies described the Krewe ball and the surroundings amazingly. I could envision myself in the middle of Mardi Gras! This is 5 short stories by 5 different authors.Cult of Personalities by Michele Breaux-Rowley: This has a bizarre stalker story that involves cat stickers and marshmallows! Aiden is called upon to investigate as events just continue to get more absurd. He and his cousin Sister Idonie go to the ball to help watch for the loon. Events unfold crazily until this person is found. Super fun short read.Fire and Ice by Sarah M Cradit: This short revolves around Fleur and Remy, the Fontenot twins. The party is continued showing Krewe traditions. Both are used to getting what they want and both find themselves in compromising positions. Fleur goes after a man that she deceives to try and get a hold of. Remy tries to be the player but finds a "good girl". Things didn't work out the way they originally planned. Page turner!Fools Errand by Michelle Graves: In this short we meet Connall on his "errand" that his mother sends him to so that he can meet the mystic. We experience the inner turmoil that he goes through while dealing with the death of Cait, his seer. The mystic provides guidance and peace so that he can move forward. This occurs before he meets Izzy in the Chronicles of Izzy. Must read as it shows why he is so cryptic with Izzy when they meet.Labor of Love by Brandy L Rivers: Darla left Tom in a haste as she is concerned over whether her baby is tainted. She is trying to protect Tom by doing this. Both Tom and Darla are madly in love and are miserable without each other. Darla's mother goes to great lengths to have them run into each other at the ball. Luckily this works and they are able to figure their love out, bring their baby into the world, and bring their family back together. Amazing read about true love.Heated Hearts by Felicia Tatum: Francesca begs Leela to stand in for her at the Krewe ball. Leela agrees but doesn't tell Cale everything, like they have to pretend to be Francesca and Cade. She feels like she will scare Cale off as they are a new relationship. They go to the ball and soon discover that they both have similar feelings for each other. It's a cute story about young new love.All of these shorts have their twist. Some of these are a little hard to follow if you haven't read the series that corresponds to the short. Overall this an amazing bunch of shorts by some amazing authors!
