Jane Austen variation
Own
I Dream of You by Robin Helm
A P&P sequel
Darcy is working too much, I should have written this review when I finished this short. I guess ok?
Sir Walter Takes A Wife by Laura Hile
A Persuasion sequel and P&P variation
This was interesting, Sir Walter is courting Lady de Bourgh. LOL. Funny
My Forever Valentine by Wendi Sotis
A P&P sequel variation
A rather sweet story
Pretense and Prejudice by Barbara Cornthwaite
A P&P variation
They both think the other one is a spy, I also liked that they met during other circumstances
My Valentine by Mandy Cook
A P&P and a S&S sequel
This one was really dull, and was about lizzy and Darcy's kid
The Lover's Ruse by Susan Kaye
Persuasion Variation
Another boring one.
Some good, some not so good. You know, like all other anthologies.
Ohhh I love this anthology! I have to find myself a copy.
ReplyDeleteSome of these sound fun! I do love Jane Austen. I'll have to check it out, minus the boring ones. :)
ReplyDeleteI can't say no to them
DeleteLady De Bourgh! I always think of Judi Dench haha
ReplyDeleteShe was great!
DeleteI guess I really need to read P&P. There are so many books and stories set in that world but I am not familiar with it.
ReplyDeleteWell in a way you do not even need to read PP ;)
DeleteI am not really into anthologies, but it seems the format is good for short Valentine P&P sequels :)

DeleteThis does sound good!

DeleteA P&P anthology, some of them sound interesting like the spy one.
ReplyDeleteThe spy one was interesting. They were out of their usual elements
DeleteI can't say I'm a real fan of anthologies these days, but back in the day, I would read them all the time. Still, this seems pretty interesting. Hugs, RO
ReplyDeleteI do get that, anthologies are really hard, cos I do not know if I ever have read one where I liked all
DeleteRomantic valentine novellas sound really good.
ReplyDeleteIt would be perfect for Vday ;)
DeleteAnthologies are always 50/50 lol
