I can't remember enjoying an anthology quite as much as I enjoyed this one. The stories are clever, witty, light-hearted, and delightful. Authored by some of romance genre's best, the book offers bon mots of joy, each rib tickling without a calorie in sight. Treat yourself to this heartwarming novel. It leaves a glow that lingers long after the last page.
