Just in time for Valentines Day and February- the month of love, comes this perfectly sweet collection of short stories that will bring that little bit of romance and love to your heart.
This Timeless Romance Anthology series is one of my very favorites. I always look forward to a new set coming out. The authors are amazing and I know I'm going to get just what my heart wants when I read them.
Each of these stories had something to do with love letters. What a great idea! Love letters are my favorite and I love how each of these authors took the same concept and made something so unique and fun.
Novellas are perfect if you just have a few minutes to read and you want a quick start to finish book. I'll admit that I never read these books that way. I just delve in and devour the whole lot of them, usually in one day. I just can't help myself. :)
These are all clean romances, but I have to point out that Just Fly had a few instances of mild swearing which surprised me because I can't remember that ever happening in these books before. I wish it hadn't been there, but that's just a personal preference.
A Timeless Romance Anthology: Love Letter Collection just hit the shelves so please go check it out! It would make an awesome Valentine's Day gift.
Thanks so much for the review!
