This was a very enjoyable novella collection. I didn't enjoy it quite as much as the second novella collection, “Four Weddings and a Kiss”, simply because of how exquisite that collection was. (I sure hope these ladies do another set of stories this year!)
I enjoyed all the stories, but the last was my favorite. How spunky Megan took hold with both hands and fought for her husband's heart in more than one sense was endearing and such a picture of true womanhood.
The only thing I'd change was to have the editor go over it one more time. There was a sentence in the first story with a hilarious misplaced modifer–I couldn't help laughing at the mental picture of this: “wearing a white dressing gown, the boardinghouse owner's grey hair hung...”–and the several instances of incorrect homophones used. Read aloud it sounds fine, but the spelling makes the sentences incorrect. A curse of spellcheck and a pet peeve of mine.
