Two stars to The Washerwoman's War by Piper Huguley. The historical setting of this story was really interesting, but I didn't think we really got to know the characters, and I certainly didn't understand why Gabriel and Mamie were in love. Gabriel also had some questionable statements about women's suffrage that I didn't think were adequately remedied or I would have given it three stars.

Four stars to Let Us Dream by Alyssa Cole. I was becoming skeptical that it's possible to do a romance short story well, but Cole came through for me. She created real characters with real problems and made me invested in them in only 100 pages, and I found their story both compelling and believable. My favorite story in this collection by far.

Another three stars for "A Radiant Soul" by Kianna Alexander. Again, an interesting set up and I appreciate the history, but there was no tension or anything to get me invested in Owen and Sarah's relationship, and I didn't really think it developed at all over the course of the story. I would probably DNF this book at this point because it's rather underwhelming if the last story weren't by Alyssa Cole.

I would say maybe three stars to In the Morning Sun by Lena Hart. I liked it, but it was a lot to cram into a 100-page story. I'm definitely interested in checking out some of her full-length works.
