Maid, Wife, or Widow?

Edit: 8/2/18 I got a hard copy of the story this week, and it's actually a stand-alone volume of 170 pages. My copy is very well edited and beautifully bound. The main objection that I have is because of the rather large number of German swears that pepper the pages. Otherwise, it's a very sweet little love story, set first in the days of the Prussia vs. Saxony conflict (name escapes me at the moment) and second during the Franco-Prussian war.


Old review: 10/3/13
The title story was an interesting little love story set in Saxony in the late 1800s. If it had been written better, I think I would have enjoyed it more; but inconsistencies like changing the spelling of someone's name partway through the story and other such sloppiness was difficult to ignore. The same held true for the other stories in the book, which must mean there was little to no editing before publication.
The story lines themselves were good, and it's a pity they were published before they were polished. I enjoyed the concepts and the better parts of all the stories.
