I’ve chosen to review only one of the three novellas, although all three are worthy of reading and make this anthology an absolute delight and a must read if you love the whole secret admirer idea but time constraints force me to choose only one. I cannot resist choosing the one that I favored the most and the winner is ….SWEET FORTUNE by Candis Terry features the characters introduced in the Sweet, Texas series, which if you haven’t read them yet then read this wonderful novella and fall in love with the incredible characters that live in Sweet, Texas for you’ll never wish to leave once you do.Sarah Randall, former assistant to Charli Brooks who we met in ANYTHING BUT SWEET and won the heart of the amazingly gorgeous Reno Wilder, sigh, but I digress. Sarah went home to L.A. but without her boss and friend, Charli, or her job, life was in need of a change so she returned to the place that felt like home to her – Sweet, Texas. It’s also the place, where a certain Deputy caught her eye and her desire.Brady Bennett has been burned by love and worse, he was burned by love on Valentine’s Day so anything that smacks of hearts and roses and that particular day just darkens his mood. And he despises surprises, so when a ‘secret admirer’ starts leaving homemade fortune cookies wrapped in heart covered cellophane with sprinkles, he is not pleased. Fortunately, a sweet, exciting, and very sexy new waitress at the diner brightens his day with her adventurous and flirtatious ways.SWEET FORTUNE, a Sweet, Texas novella by Candis Terry is absolutely a deliciously sweet addition to this wonderful series. Brady is right up there on the sexy heat scale with the Wilder brothers, and Sarah is another heroine by Candis that you can’t help but wish to have as a best friend. As usual, we’re treated to the greatest collection of delightful characters ever created. I love visiting the town of Sweet, and I love how these characters pull you into their story as if they’re asking you to pull up a chair and stay awhile, which is something I love to do.If you read CONFESSIONS OF A SECRET ADMIRER, a Valentine’s Day Anthology for any reason at all, I highly recommend it’s to read this wonderful story about giving love another chance because you’ve met the right person and finding that love can truly heal scarred hearts. By the way, the other two novellas are just as good as this one and well worth the reading as well. So go for it and at less than two dollars for ebook anthology, how can you go wrong.I purchased this anthology from Kobobooks for my own personal reading and am giving an honest and unscripted review despite the fact that this wonderful story was dedicated to me. It did not sway my good opinion.
