Story #1: Holiday Roommates by Tere Michaels
A vibrant, well-balanced story that plays out over the entire winter holiday season from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day. Full of stuff I normally wouldn't like, but the MCs were so charming that I was smitten.

Just a few scenes in, & I'm wondering why MC2 is thinking of MC1 as the kid, the kid, the kid -- when it's been established that MC1 is 34 years old. How old is MC2 supposed to be, then? I'm not giving him permission to call anyone "kid" unless he's at least 54 himself. Turns out I'd gotten the two of them mixed up -- NOT a good sign when reading alternating POV. Apparently it's MC1 who is 34, & MC2 is early 20s.

Skipping ahead to the third and final story, because I have only a limited tolerance for Christmas stories and the middle one was the least favorably reviewed.

I don't much care for short fiction (in the romance genre), and I have no interest in holiday stories at all -- so why am I reading this anthology?
If you figure it out, let me know.
In the meantime, I'm being thoroughly entertained by the first story, by Tere Michaels, even though I normally hate reading anything theater-related. So this is like a 3 strikes situation -- but I'm in instead of out.
