My Review:

My Rating: 3 Stars

This was a cute book full of short novellas from a bunch of different authors. There was almost every trope represented in this book with steam, humor and swoothyness. Some of these stories are prelude to new novels coming out in the coming years and some of these are bonus scenes of other books the authors have written. If you are looking for a few short stories to read because you don't have time to read a full novel I would suggest reading this. I don't want to give away too much of the storylines, but some of the stories I really enjoyed while others just weren't the right fit for me. The great thing about this book is that 100% of the profits are going to charity!

Meet Willow

I started writing after having my little girl, Evie, December of 2015. All during my pregnancy with her I read. I only wanted to read romance novels and I read everything I could get my hands on. I would read a book a day -- sometimes two. In January I was staying up late with her and just thinking of all these stories. They came to me constantly. I finally sat down and just started writing. I always wanted to do it so I figured, why not?

I never thought I would reach this point of success to be honest. It's insane to me that I have connected with so many readers.

And I love each and every one of them for all of their support. I'll be honest, some days are HARD. I have my littles during the day and I write at night. Some days are just simply exhausting and then I hear from a reader and it motivates me to push through and keep writing. I couldn't be more grateful for this wonderful career.
