I enjoy collections where each story builds upon the previous. Tess, Clare, Zoe, and Anna each play a role in uncovering the mystery of the military dog tags and reuniting Grandma Rose with David. Not before some serious sisterly drama plays out, however, and makes the granddaughters worry that things will never be the same. The first three stories were okay, I didn't really mesh with the authors' writing styles. The interactions between the main characters were awkward and I wasn't feeling the chemistry. The last story by Denise Hunter made up for it, and I found myself looking forward to her contribution as I read. She brings a spark to her romance and I connected more fully with the emotions of the characters.

Thanks for providing a review copy, I was not able to read this one. So I will not be leaving a review on social media at this time.

I have loved all of the 'Smitten' books and this one was no exception. This is a wonderful compilation by some of my favorite authors and gives a great taste of their talent to anyone who hasn't had a chance to familiarize themselves with them yet. Smitten is a wonderful place and I'm so glad to have gotten to spend time there.
