In this anthology we have amazing authors that I am dying to read all of these short stories. So far I have read Heir of Sin by Holly Renee….

Heir of Sin:

This brief taste of Emilia and Mateo is so delicious you crave to know more. Emilia is in a difficult situation with her incredibly cruel stepfather but to get the freedom that she not only craves but needs she has to do a job for him. She is to get Mateo to fall for her so her stepfather can take that family down. What Emilia wasn’t expecting was her intense connection and chemistry with Mateo, but with the way this short story ends we are left on pins and needles dying to see what will happen next. Will Emilia gain her freedom or has she just destroyed her only chance to escape her stepfather? What will happen between her and Mateo? I can’t wait for this duet to come out I just know it will be so good.

I can’t wait to read the others because I know they will truly be amazing.

Make You Mine by Shantel Tessier:

With plans to keep each other safe and protected their targets are set on her and will do what they need to bring her down. This is going to be an intense and crazy ride that I can’t wait to devour and I can’t wait for more!!… (more)

For being book#2 in the LSU series, I liked this one but didn't really love it as much as the first one.

The reason being too much angst/miscommunication. Elliott has pined for his assuming straight best friend Ander since they were in high school. Ander has no idea that Elliott has felt this way and one night kisses him to get a creepy guy to go away after he bothers Elliott at a bar. Suddenly, Ander turns over a new leaf and now sees the potential in dating guys or at least attempting to. Elliott keeps thinking that the other shoe will drop if he and Ander continue "dating."

I agree with the other reviewers who stated that there is too much angst in this. Elliott and Ander both immediately ask for "space" after having adult activities with each other and that part bothered me. They wouldn't just come out and say how they were feeling, maybe due to not wanting the friendship to be jeopardized?… (more)
