This series is perfect for those that love novella & love compilations that have this beautiful little invisible string weaving itself in and out of each book to tie them together.

Out of the 6 books, Christina Lauren's was probably my favorite and that's only because I love how the relationship grew over the course of time, but I enjoyed all 6 of these books. These are perfect for someone who may be new to the authors because it gives them a beautiful peek into their writing and story telling.

Thank you to NetGalley and Amazon Original Stories for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This was such a cute collection of short stories from some of my favorite authors. Each story was different and had different tropes which I appreciated.

My two favorite stories were Worst Wingman Ever and Royal Valentine. Abby Jimenez does such a great job weaving serious topics into romance, and this story was no exception. I loved the pen pal via notes on her car- such a fun meet cute. I also am a sucker for a royals story and a European setting so Royal Valentine was such a fun read.

I'd recommend theses short stories to my friends- and it's such a fitting Valentines themed read.

Absolutely a fun read! All of the stories were enjoyable and so nice to see so many of my favorite authors in one spot. Thank you netgalley for this arc in exchange for my honest opinion.

I absolutely adored every little short story in this collection. Some ofmy favorite authors collectively created such a fun read! I would love a fall and Christmas version of this. Each meet cute was unique and so fun to read. I'm usually a Valentines hater but this collection got me in the spirit. I rated it 5 stars and c as nt wait for my friends to dive in too.

I was so excited when I saw this collection of short stories as it included some of my favorite authors. I loved these quick reads, and it was nice to get this little love stories in so few pages. Romance is one of my favorite genres due to the comfort and predictability of a happily ever after and these lived up to that. I thought about rating them from most favorite to least favorite, but I don’t think I can.

I enjoyed reading this work from all these authors. This was the first time I had read Sally Thorpe, Sarah Wilson, and Jasmine Guillory. I will now be going through and adding more of their books to my reading list. I knew Abby Jimenez, Christina Lauren, and Ashley Poston would not disappoint.

Thank you to Amazon Original Stories and Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for my review!

I absolutely loved these stories! Such fun and creative meet cutes! I think the variety between them was great and loved the small connections too! Definitely recommend reading!

ARC review. I completed a short review on each short story. Overall a fantastic set of short stories that get you in the mood for Valentine’s Day!

Improbable meet cute - holy crap do I love reading these 2 grow over 10 years time. Less than a 1% chance this meet cute ever actually happens, but I want more! Book hangover from a Christina Lauren novella? Yup.

Worst wingman ever - how am I sobbing…full on sobbing at a paragraph that includes the phrase “dick guillotine”? Because no one does it like Abby Jimenez. Holly and John spread kindness on unsuspecting strangers and this story is not just about finding someone to share life with - but it’s ultimately about finding yourself when you get a bit lost.

Rosie and the dreamboat - These 2 meet in the most unexpected way and fate most definitely plays its part in their story. Think a Galentine’s day at the spa is a great way to spend some time relaxing? As I read, I kept thinking this story was a “blind date”. Sally Thorne = “chef’s kiss”.

Drop, cover, and hold on - an equal opportunity RBF diagnosis on a MMC! “Grump”/sunshine trope, yummy pastries, and a natural disaster? I’ll take it. Jasmine Guillory never disappoints.

With any Luck - what would you do for your best friend? For those of us girls who had male best friends growing up and get slightly annoyed because it’s rare to read a friends stay friends story in the romance genre, this story is for you. Ashley Poston still gives us a sweet HEA.

Royal Valentine - if you’re a Sariah Wilson fan, she stayed in her Royals of Monterra world for this short and sweet story. A romantic walk through Rome and some art history? Of course I’m a fan :).

Easiest 5 stars. Such good, cute, funny and romantic little books. I'm obsessed with them. Definitely worth reading them and will buy for friends.

This is the most darling collection of stories. Perfect for Valentine's Day, whether you are single or in a relationship. Each story contains a very improbable meet cute. My two favorite stories were from Christina Lauren and Abby Jimenez, two of my must-read authors. I wasn't familiar with some of the other authors, but after reading their stories, I plan to add their books to my list too.

I’m not usually a fan of short stories but this collection was so cute and fun! I did find it a little challenging to rate since some of the stories I adored and others were just ok so I averaged them out. If you are fans of any of the authors I’d definitely suggest reading this collection!

Thank you netgalkey for the arc in exchange for my honest review.

I loved this collection of short stories. All of these authors are so talented and are able to draw you into the story even with the short length! Such a fun collection to read around Valentine's Day!

A huge thank you to NetGalley and Amazon Original Stories for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Such cute short stories to get you in the Valentine’s Day spirit with a little romance, spice and mystery!

This was a great collaboration and I loved all of the stories. Each author did a great job of providing a cute Valentine's short story and they were all very entertaining. Some of my favorite authors were included, and it was so much fun to ready. Definitely recommend this one!

Really enjoyed all these romance short stories!

All the stories in this short story collection revolve around Valentines Day, and they all have little Easter eggs connecting them to other stories in the collection.

Christina Lauren:
I love epistolaries in romances books, and this one is a mistaken identity, friends to lovers, with low angst, and has a star crossed lover feel to it. Could not help but cheer these two characters on! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Abby Jimenez:
Abby has a complete gift with writing stories that will make you cry and then laugh within pages of each other. She balances grief and comedy so well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sally Thorne:
Cute story with a very unique premise for the meet cute! Note for readers- if you get claustrophobic, this may not be the story for you. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jasmine Gilroy:
Disaster Meet cute, with grumpy sunshine characters, spicy! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ashley Poston:
Second chances in love and luck - felt a little chaotic. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sariah Wilson:
Royal romance, with mistaken identity. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely SWOONED to CLo’s Callum and Terra in The Exception to the Rule. Immediate combustion on completion. True mastery achieved in a short story format.

Worst Wingman Ever has Abby Jimenez’s trademark wit and sass. John would made Ryder the-real-life-handyman proud!

4 stars!

This was a lovely collection. The stories are different from each other, so the collection is very versatile. The stories were quick to read, like lovely little sweet snacks!

My favorite was Rosie and the Dreamboat by Sally Thorne. I love everything Sally Thorne writes, this story made me laugh out loud. A very sweet story!

Such stories are wonderful to read. I felt good about them. I will definitely read again!

These six short stories by rom com legends were so much fun to read. I have, of course, heard of all of these authors but hadn’t had the opportunity to read their own individual work yet so, for some, it served as a really good introduction.

This little collection was so bingeable and hard to put down. Each of the stories was so fun to read - and would make a perfect galentines day gift to your book loving besties.

I would rate this collection as four stars because one of the short stories (Guillory’s) ended so abruptly that I thought the electronic version I was reading was missing a section. But I still enjoyed all of the stories!

Thank you NetGalley for the advanced electronic version of this book in exchange for my honest review.

This is one of the cutest short story collections I’ve ever read, and it is absolutely perfect for Valentine’s Day! These are some of the best romance authors at this time, and the writing shows it! I loved all of them and enjoyed the various ways in which the stories were told, i.e. emails, text messages, straight first person POV. I’m so grateful for this ARC and will be recommending to everyone!
