I'm not even sure...this'll show you how much my tastes changed from Lexie 10 Years Ago--this book is hard to believe. But I know I enjoyed it oh so long ago because it's recorded in my "Books To Keep" journal and I only wrote books worth giving shelf space to in that.

The stories were entirely too short for what they wanted. As none of the couples knew each other, and the murder being the catalyst, there was no time for it, the romance, to build.

second story was the best one, but overall, about a C-.

4 regency short stories. In Chances of Love, he's the perfect suitor for the widowed mum, not the daughter; in The Aunt and the Ancient Mariner, spinster Aunt Chloe fends off her niece's "too old" suitor, but he's perfect for her; in Annabelle to the rescue, after Dad marries the wicked stepmother, Annabelle sees that things are put to right; in Underneath the Lemon Tree, while keeping her sister out of trouble, widowed Julianna finds herself in the broth.

An enjoyable Christmas read.
