I'm glad that I got to read a sampling of authors without buying each of their books.  Some of the stories were interesting, some not.The last story, The Throwbacks wasn't stellar; it was hard to plow through. Let us Prey could have used an editor who paid attention to word usage..many errors in this department but the one that grated on my nerves was the misuse of inferred.The Secret Ingredient did leave you wondering for a while about who the murderer was, but the best part of the story was the recipes at the end.The Chase is a novella that seemed long. In A Touch of Ice, the protagonist has the power to touch an item and see images. If you don't like this type of story, you won't like this one either.The Ex who Wouldn't Die is another story involving supernatural events. The first book in the set is Cutthroat Business which has an interesting enough story, but it does have sexual content.It is difficult to give a collection a single rating, but overall, I think three stars is appropriate.
