sehr süß
ich hab dieses buch schon länger als meinen kindle :-) und war begeistert. ich mag sammlungen von geschichten, die jede für sich nicht zu lang sind, so daß frau auch mal ne pause machen und wieder ihrer arbeit nachgehen kann :-D. durch die verschiedenen autorinnen sind die geschichten sich nicht zu ähnlich (wie es ja bei sammlungen manchmal leider der fall ist) und hervorragend zu lesen.absolute empfehlung - wenn nicht als ebook, dann in papier....

Finally, a minor miracle (at least for me).
I am so very glad to say that miracles (even minor ones) do still happen. This is an anthology (usually to be approached with extreme caution by me, yet I continue to buy them) which actually has four, yes, count them, four GOOD stories. I almost didn't buy the book because of the diverse range of ratings from other readers but I am wholeheartedly glad I went ahead and got it. The plots of the four stories are very well described in other reviews so I will just say that I acutally enjoyed all four of these stories. No one stood out more than another but I also did not find one to be significantly weaker than the others.Maybe the reasons some reviewers saw these stories in a negative way are the same reasons I liked them very much. They are all very simple love stories, relatively uncomplicated, containing very few secondary characters. Because of the brevity, the characters must deal with each other and their situations and not allow THE BIG MISUNDERSTANDING to take up page after page after page of unproductive activity. They are sweet and even innocent (even though each has a liberal sprinkling of sensual moments).I found all four stories entirely to my liking. I know that the book was published in 1999 and literary styles have changed but not all those changes suit all readers. I, for one, still enjoy a good, old fashioned love story.

Sehr enttäuschende „billige“ Kurzgeschichten
Ich bin sehr enttäuscht von dem Buch, dachte ich doch, es wäre auch ein tolles Buch, wie die anderen z.B. von Julia Quinn.Hier handelt es sich eigentlich nur um so lange Katz und Maus spielen, bis sie „endlich“ zum „Akt“ kommen, welcher auch noch mal extrem, immer wieder gleich, in die Länge gezogen wird. Dann ist die Story zuende. Absolut nicht zu empfehlen.
