Rating: Summary: 3 fabulous stories Review: It is very unusual in a collection of stories to enjoy all 3. I definetely enjoyed all three. TOo Wild to Wed by Jayne Ann Krentz was great! Montana Man by Barbara Delinsky was super as well, but I kept thinking that I had read it or a story just like it before. Falling Angel by Anne Stuart was also good - but not quite a believable.

Rating: Summary: Romance from Heaven and Earth Review: Jayne Ann Krentz and Barbara Delinsky deliver their gifted tales of strong female characters who create their own dilemmas. Krentz's professor, Letty, and Delinsky's hitchhiker, Lily, both meet her own Mr. Wrong who worms his way into each heroine's heart by trying to rescue her from a risky situation to become her Mr. Right. I always enjoy both of these authors and have added Anne Stuart to my "must read" list. Anne Stuart brings Gabriel, a beautiful angel of slippery status, back to Angel Falls, Minnesota, with 30 days to right the wrongs he visited on 3 people before he died. His new visage enchants Carrie Alexander when he arrives at her door Thanksgiving day after his truck slides into a ditch during a blizzard. Gabriel's attraction to Carrie makes him wonder how he will correct his sins against her and two other unnamed people in time to make it back to heaven, when all he wants to do his stay with her at the risk of eternity in Hell. The ensuing interaction between Gabriel and the people he meets results in an entertaining love story.
Rating: Summary: nice collection of reprints Review: WOW it was hard to rate this as a whole because the tales are very different. This is a trade side reprints of stories that have been reprinted several times. (the weakest of the three) JAK's The Waiting Game is not one of her best earlier works. Still a good read, but the female character is really stupid at times and it hurts the rest of the book. The male character more than makes up for the silly female, but he can only do so much. This has been reprinted several times by itself so I suggest you check you old series romance and recent JAK's before you buy this one. Delinsky's Montana Man is one of her best early works. She shows a strong hand in male-female attraction and it was riveting. Anne Stuart ( one of my favourite writers) gives us a touching story of second chances. And as usual, Stuart is the BEST at the bad boy being redeemed by love. Emerson Wyatt McVey was a ruthless corporate executive that destroyed hundreds, maybe thousands of lives by closing factories. On a Wintry holiday night, his car goes off the road and he dies, but he is given once chance to come back as another man and make right three lives he destroyed. Carrie Alexander is one of those he destroyed and it is through her love McVey will be redeemed or not. A beautiful holiday tale, with Fallen Angel being a special special Stuart tale.
