Love's Imperfect Pitch: 2 Stars
Perhaps the storyline could have been better realized in a longer format. I found it difficult to connect with the characters; I found Sebastian annoying and Aadya too insecure. I understand the intentions but it just felt overdone. Better writing than the first story.

Meditate on my Heart: 3 stars
Can someone explain why all the stories so far are of 27 year olds?
The author alluded to a lot of hurt and pain experienced by the MCs which intrigued me, but I was left disappointed since it wasn't properly addressed. I know short stories are limiting. This would've worked better in a longer format.

Love Me When It Hurts: 3 Stars
This definitely has potential to be extended into full-length novel. I was shorter than the two proceeding stories, yet held more substance. I liked how it explored a relationship in which one partner has a mental health concern. But it could be because I'm a clinician.

Chasing Empty Hearts: 1 Star
"Chelsea Maria comes through with an urban bomb. Trust me, she starts this anthology off rough, romantic, and right."
It was rough alright, but not for the reasons the editor alludes to. I did not understand the characters and I was highly confused by the plot. I was not captivated by the writing, which seemed to be all over the place.
