Full review to post on After Dark Book Lovers, but in the meantime....

Loved it. Besides the fact that it’s for a great cause (seriously EFF CANCER), the stories are just enough to whet your appetite for each of these authors’ writing. I definitely recommend it for fans of contemporary romances in general and these authors in particular.

There’s something about a little black dress. This simple bit of fabric is a part of every woman’s wardrobe, and holds a magic no other piece of clothing can compete with. Four friends are about to experience the magic of one particular LBD first-hand.

Abby’s Angels by Sarah O’Rourke - 4 Stars!

Abby Lehigh is fed-up and scared. She’s terrified the man she fell instantly in love with eleven years prior, is not committed to their once passionate marriage. The last few months has seen them growing further and further apart, communicating less, and a lack of intimacy. It’s more, though. Heartache unlike they’ve never experienced has played its role in their distance. Luckily, Abby has the help of a sister and the magical powers if that all important little black dress. Can she put her trust in a night of dress-up and seduction or is it too late to save her relationship?

Lucy’s a Dreamer by Brynne Asher - 5 Stars!

Lucy Adair has always been a dreamer. The dorky baby of the family, who hasn’t grown up. She may be no good at adulting, but she has definitely grown up. And Vaughn Rowe has definitely noticed. It could have been the absolutely perfect little black dress she borrowed from her big sister or it could simply have been Lucy. Either way, Lucy’s childhood dream is finally happening. A chance with Vaughn. But can Lucy trust in a relationship that started as a one night stand or can she dare to dream of getting all she ever wished for in a sexy, ultra-masculine, alpha male?

Kiss Me, Katie by Sarah Curtis - 4 Stars!

Katie Sawyer is desperate. She has a job she loves, great friends, and she adores her family, but her parents are annoyingly persistent. Not liking that their daughter became a cop, they feel she should settle down, start a family, and quit her job. Katie has a plan to get them off her back. A favor from her sexy partner, Ethan Pierce, and with the help of a lucky little black dress, it should be a piece of cake. She hopes. She could be risking it all. Could she be risking their perfect partnership on the job or opening them up to a whole new type of partnership?

Winnie Mae by Layla Frost - 5 Stars!

Winnie Mae Hynes is a little bit mischievous. Okay a lot mischievous. Accompanying her best friend to a Christmas party is a chance for her to get herself into the crazy situations she’s known for. And boy, she doesn’t disappoint. Max is strong, sexy, and knows just what Winnie wants. But does he know who she is? A steamy night together opens a lot of potential, but Winnie hasn't shown Max the real her. Or has she?

This collection of books was really good. I loved that all of the MC’s were connected in some way. It was sweet, steamy, humorous, and had all the alpha males we women love. My only complaint is that they were far too short because I didn’t want them to end. I’m kind of hoping these amazing authors get together and write again. <3 ...more
