"Enjoyable novellas--love this concept of 4 authors taking the same basic storyline and then developing it in their own style. I enjoyed the previous one, It Happened One Night. Hope they will keep going! "

It Happened One Season Listener Reviews
-
" 2.5 stars. Didn't even finish the first one as it was too preposterous. Mary Balogh's was okay, though pretty smooth and convenient. The third was mostly forgettable but had a nice heroine, and the last, by Candice Hern, keeps this from being just plain two stars. It was a very sweet, soft romance in the vein of the older regencies (which I loved). A former soldier with PTSD paired with a lame young woman? Awesome. 3.5 stars for that one. All in all, a decent way to pass the time, but nothing special, though I will be checking out more Candice Hern stories. "

" Four fun stories. I think I like Laurens' best, since it has action and a crime (blackmail). "
— S, 2/12/2014 -
" Only read the Balogh and Laurens short stories... "
— Sandra, 2/10/2014 -
" 3.5 these were all great. very cool about the same theme but different authors versions. "
— Amanda, 2/6/2014 -
" Didn't suck. "
— Shalon, 1/17/2014 -
" A fun summer read to take your mind off the hot weather! I really enjoyed stories 1, 3 & 4. The premise for story 2 was very good, but much too abridged. "
— Annette, 12/28/2013 -
" Nice, but fairly meh set of short stories. The improbable set-up just didn't do anything for me. The best of the lot was Candice Hern's "Fate Strikes a Bargain," which was a moving story of one soldier's PTSD. "
— Lady, 12/15/2013 -
" I thought all four stories in this anthology were very good. "
— Lindy, 12/6/2013 -
" A pretty insipid anthology. The Balogh story is sweet, and I liked the pairing in the Hearn story -- a disabled, overly protected heroine and a hero with PTSD. The other two stories were too dull to finish. "
— willaful, 7/14/2013 -
" The last story was definitely my favourite, but I really liked all four of them! Great read! "
— Mandy, 6/2/2013 -
" I would say maybe 2 out of the 4 stories were good. "
— Ariel, 6/1/2013 -

" enjoyable series of short stories "
— Talietha, 12/6/2011 -
" Maybe I expected too much? It was a good collection of regency romances, not bad. But I wouldn't have bought it if it was not on sale. "
— Sho, 9/20/2011 -
" Nice short stories. I especially liked Mary Balogh's and Candice Hern's versions. "
— Minna, 5/8/2011 -
" 2 for Laurens and D'allesandro; 3 for Balogh and Hern "
