"My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read."

The Novellas is a collection of 4 short stories from Suzanna Medeiros: Dear Stranger, Dancing with the Duke, Lady Hathaway's Indecent Proposal, and Forbidden in February. Some of the stories are better than others.
Dear Stranger is the first one and it is the story between Sophie and Richard, the Earl of Dearbourne. Sophie has been courted by another man that she intends to accept on the condition that their kiss be enjoyable. At a masked ball she follows him out to the garden to obtain said kiss only to be surprised that the man she has kissed is actually the brother of her soon to be intended. The story was light and enjoyable. Since it's a novella, things move pretty quickly in the end though.
Dancing with the Duke is the second story that is a prequel to the Landing a Lord series. It's about Charlotte who's been in love the her best friend's brother, the Duke of Clarington, since she was young. The story was pretty bland. Not very exciting or intriguing. Characters could have been more complex.
Lady Hathaway's Indecent Proposal is the first book in the Hathaway Heirs series and this was my favorite in the set of novellas. It's about Miranda who is recently widowed and Andrew, the Earl of Sanderson. Theirs is a second chance love story filled with heat. The characters were interesting and I almost wished it was a full novel because I liked the characters so much and wanted to have a more in depth story for them. It was good for a novella though. I enjoyed it.
Forbidden in February is the second in the series A Year Without a Duke. It's interesting in that it's not your typical characters in a regency romance. The story is between Robert and Isabel. Robert is an illegitimate son of a mistress and Isabel was a companion to Robert's recently deceased mother. The premise/setup of the story was hard for me to buy into. It's definitely not the strongest story in this collection.
