Looking for short story recs!

I was having a twitter conversation with Inez Kelly about how little reading time I've had lately. Seriously, this year has been CRAZY and the ironic thing is, that it was supposed to mark a slowdown for me. But uhm yeah, not so much. Since the beginning of the year, I've written a historical romance, two shorter contemporary romances for Harlequin Desire, an erotic longer novella (40k words) the 4th KGI book and now I'm immersed in Sweet Addiction. So yeah, my reading time has been non existent because along with all the work I've been devoting time to, things have been really busy with my family.

We've traveled. My daughter is playing softball and we've devoted a lot of time to her practices and her tournaments. The year has sped by so frighteningly fast that well, reading has just fallen by the wayside. Which makes me sad.

But I've found that even if I can't commit to a full length novel (even as insanely fast as I read) that shorter works really do the trick when I really just need time to let my brain rest and enjoy something. Such was the case when I impulsively picked up Cara McKenna's latest short story, Don't Call Her Angel. It was perfect, see, because I was done in about half an hour. And then I could go back to work, or go take my daughter to practice or even cook supper. OMG you guys seriously don't know how long it's been since I last cooked lololol. My poor husband was in shock last night when I actually went into the kitchen and fixed supper.

I'm getting off topic….

So to get to my point, I'd LOVE some recommendations for SHORT stories. Novellas, short stories. But I want them to be really good. And satisfying. They don't have to be "change the world" earth shattering. I just want something yummy that satisfies my need for a "quick fix"

Got anything for me? Oh and yeah, I should clarify, I want it to be romance. Don't make me sad when I'm trying to work!! :)
