Together Again was a sweet collection of second chance romances. This collection covers so many different types of second chances from divorced exes finding each other again, to crushes that got away before telling each other how they feel. Each story is short and sweet which is nice if you only have a short time in the day to get your romance fix and are like me and once started with a story can't put it down until it's over. I love getting to read such a variety of authors too and can't wait to grab more books by some of the authors that really grabbed my attention. The stories in this collection ranged from 0 on the spicy scale, even though you could still feel the chemistry between the characters, to super spicy. Pretty much any type of level you are looking for you will find it here. This is such a great collection and for a good cause. You will definitely not be disappointed!

This gathering of six contemporary, two historical, and one paranormal quick reads is mesmerizing. Each story is about a couple who split up for ridiculous reasons and then get back together because it's HARD to stay away from the love of your life. These stories are full of romance, with each ending in a HEA. Very highly recommended.

I received a copy of this book via Sofia's Cowboy Romance Lovers and am voluntarily leaving a review.

- Quick stories
- Second chance
- Miscommunication

I love anthologies as they contain quick reads that are perfect to dip in and out of, depending on your mood and time. The stories in this collection range from contemporary to historical, even paranormal. I very much enjoyed the variety I found in this anthology.
