This book was full of cute, fluffy little stories for anyone who loves a good romance read. Quick and easy to get through.

This was eleven cute, but predictable stories. I liked them but would've liked more on some of the stories. The writing was good so I'd certainly read Liese Sherwood Fabre again

Thank you to Little Elm Press LLC, NetGalley & Liese Sherwood-Fabre for the free advanced digital copy.

I thought these short stories were a cute & quick read. Each story was about 3 pages, and gave you a quick snapshot of the beginning of a love story. I was hoping for a bit more from some of the stories, but I then realized that it somewhat reminded me of life and how love sometimes just happens when you least expect it! These short stories were an example of that, overall the stories were fun to read!

Quick read for those days you desire a short story. Each tale was a little different in its portrayal of love and romance. Overall good stories and a nice read.

Something quick and easy to read. Enjoyed it. Le books like this. Really enjoyed this book. Get it. Quick read for one afternoon.

There are 11 short stories of love in this book. It's a cute, easy read between more compelling books. I liked it and found most of the stories charming. Thanks netgalley for the arc, the review is my opinion

Romance writ large and small, warm and surprising. Light and easy reads -- perfect when you have a moment and want to dip into another world.

Thank you to Laurie White, Little Elm Press & Netgalley for allowing me to read this advance readers copy e-arc! This short story collection comes out on October 15,2018 so be ready for it!

This is a light & fluffy contemporary read comprised of 11 short stories that are very “ lovey-dovey”
If you are looking to indulge in something fast- paced and sweet, or for a book to get you out of a reading slump this would be a great one to pick up! Each story is only 3-4 pages and you can easily put it down and pick it back up, without having to re-read and catch yourself back up again. Each story stands alone.

I Read this all in one sitting before bed in about 1 hour! It made me feel giddy & happy! I can easily see “ To The Rescue” happening to someone like me!

Cute stories. You'll learn how romance exists in small things like a smile, a chat, a look... Good for a quick read(I read it in a day) but the stories kept me longing for more. Yet a unique and beautiful read.

I loved these short and sweet stories by Liese Sherwood-Fabre! I wish they would have been longer, but they also gave me just enough of a taste that I was invested in these character's lives and was curious about what would happen next. I think all of these short stories have the potential to be full-length novels!
I will definitely check out what else this author has written!

About the Author
This is my first ever Liese Sherwood book. From what I understand about her work, it is the first time she is writing something like this. A whole book of short and sweet romantic stories. Normally perceived as a Mystery/Thriller author, this book is a welcome change giving you that fuzzy feeling in your heart. Her stories have life in them and a very distinct tone which I enjoyed thoroughly.

Synopsis
Virtual Harmony and Other Short Sweet Romances, as the name indicates, is a collection of eleven romantic short stories with a diverse background and range of characters. All of these stories have one common theme obviously – Love. It’s not just some run-of-the-mill fairy tale love stories. These are love stories that we find around us every day. It’s about those little moments that bring people together. Stories of people who are willing to give a chance for love in their life. Sometimes it is a distant co-worker who turns out to be this amazing person outside her cubicle or just a guardian angel from some part of the world or the unseen diamond that has been with you for a long time.

My thoughts
I usually prefer dwelling into a long novel escaping the real world around me. This is a first time I am reading a collection of short love stories. To be honest, I didn’t expect it to be that interesting and am I not glad to be wrong? Each of these stories stood out to me and had a unique character to it. To begin with a breezy start like Virtual Harmony, we actually embark on a journey like a bus ride where we see different people or like a fly on the wall watching different stories unfold and eventually it ends up in the corridors of an airport giving you the vibes of a Nicholas Sparks novel. As we all know each love story is unique. Some are deep and thought provoking and some are simply sweet like a cup cake. Developing a romance- subtle romance- to be specific, is an art. It is much easier to do when you are writing an elaborate novel. But developing a romance within a short span requires tremendous skills. The author definitely wins our heart there.



Not all the stories are perfect. But I think that’s just how it is. Some couples do have an amazing story of how they came to be together and some don’t. Isn’t that how life works? If I am allowed to be partial and picky I will say that Batting practice is my favourite of the lot. It was one story where I never expected what was coming. Roadside assistance might be a little towards the preachy side but it covered a different kind of love story which is always welcome. A couple of the stories are funny enough to put a smile on your face. Overall it is one of those feel good books you pick if you wish to kill a few hours reading a little bit of those cute love stories.
