After years of nonstop excitement -- of traveling around the globe in a chaotic rags-to-riches-to-rags whirl with her late husband, Charley -- Jackie had returned to Eternity, Colorado, near her hometown of Chandler. She wanted to put down roots, start a business, maybe someday fall in love again. But she never dreamed that the man who might make all her wishes come true was William Montgomery...little Billy, the lovesick boy who dogged her every step when she was a teenager...little Billy, who was now definitely a man, handsome, sexy, rich, and still madly in love with Jackie O'Neill....… (more)

Three wonderful Jude Deveraux stories. I always love when Jude throws in references to previous books like Chandler and Eternity Colorado(Twin of Ice/Fire, Eternity, Wishes), MacTarvit whisky (The Duchess), Tynan Mills (The Temptress) and the clothing shop Paris in the Desert and Joshua Templeton (Eternity).
My favorite is Kane's story (The Matchmakers) but I may be biased because of my love for his twin brother Mike's story (Sweet Liar) where we were first introduced to Kane and his incredibly precocious twin sons. Of course I wish Kane's story was longer so I could keep reading but even as a short story it was really great.
The Invitation was a great read and we get to see Nellie (Wishes) again which is always nice to see previous book characters.
A Perfect Arrangement was also a great story taking place in the Western Frontier which is always a pleasing setting for me to read about. ( )

I didn't realize when I downloaded the book that it was actually three short stories. Each was a completely different setting with very different characters. I enjoyed all three. It was a light quick read. ( )
