I bought the book because I'm a Catherine Anderson fan, but the value in these books is that they often introduce you to new writers - or, at least, authors you may not have read before. Ms. Anderson's contribution is set in the old west around the 1890's - so not too terribly old west. I give it three stars. It was not up to her normal caliber but few of her histories are (except Comanche Moon, of course). It was nevertheless a nice read. The offering by Loretta Chase, who is a new author for m...more
Three authors - Catherine Anderson, Loretta Chase and Samantha James.
For whatever reason - I liked the Anderson story the best. It caught my interest from the get go and I finished it in one sitting.
The Loretta Chase story I was not as fond of. The storyline was quite different but it just seemed a little vague in spots. Too bad really because I have quite liked her other books. Samantha James was not quite as good as Anderson - but still interesting enough to hold my interest. Overall gave it...more

I struggled with the rating for this anthology. I thoroughly disliked the Anderson novella, I actually felt uncomfortable while reading it. I've read the Chase novella before, and it was just ok. I really liked the last story by James, I'd probably give it 4+ stars. I always have trouble understanding why publishers re-package unappealing stories that were written fifteen years ago. Too bad the James novella had the misfortune to be grouped in with inferior works,

I would rate this antho as a five star based only on Loretta Chase's novella, The Mad Earl's Bride. Fantastic writing, wonderful story. LC at her best. The other two novellas are entertaining and worth the read, too.
Fancy Free is the first story I ever read and loved in the romance genre, it is an awesome sweet story worth reading. I re read it whenever the urge hits me cause it is so good.
Only read the last two stories and i really enjoyed the samantha James one, nice happy ending! Tried andersons story but just didn't Ike it. Chase's was a good one though!
I only read Eloisa James' short story, but it was wonderful! I love her smart women characters! And this had a really interesting premise: a mad duke.
Three stories. First of all, the last story was not good. Second, all three authors generally write novels, and instead of short stories, these felt like novels with the middle 50% excised.
All three of these stories could have been made into a longer book, but all were good and complete as they were.
Rating for The Mad Earl's Bride by Loretta Chase.
The beginnings of marriages are proven to be challenging in these novellas, though it was only okay as far as this anthology goes. A western love story with interesting characters. An earl with an altogether different ailment than was originally thought. And a secret kept from a bride at first makes wrong assumptions as to why. Decent read!!
I had already read the first two stories, so three stars fir the last story.
Read the 1st one only
loretta chase - mad earl's bride
I read Loretta Chase's story quite a while ago, before joining GR, and I remember that it was good, but a little strange, part of the "Lord of Scoundrels" series. Will have to revisit it.
4 stars for Samantha James' story, which I came across today in another anthology, "Married at Midnight". An enjoyable angsty read both times.
