review 1: 3 short, interconnected stories that all seem to involve accountant/author Maria White.In Taking a Leap, we meet Brad the Geek and Alyssa with the Sexy Voice. Brad agrees to repair Maria's laptop while she's on vacation, and has to rewrite a scene from Maria's novel. He enlists Alyssa's help (who's recently single) and from there love blooms. Ta-da!In Light My Fire, we meet Maria's first publisher Amy, who's agreed to cat-sit for Maria, who's off on yet another cruise (how many cruises can one take in a given year?). Anyhoo, Amy meets the hunky firefighter Troy who lives across the hall from Maria (I must be in the wrong area, the firefighters I see aren't hunky, they're more doughy). Of course they're attracted to each other, but Troy is slow to pick up on the clues Amy's... more practically throwing at him. Again by the end love has bloomed. Ta-da!The last story, Second Time Around focuses on Troy's friend Antonio (recently separated from his wife), and Brad the Hot Geek's sister Maddie (newly divorced) are introduced at a New Year's Eve party where: Maria White's apartment. After a couple of dates, they get together, and love blooms. Ta-da!All in all a cute novella, something I'd probably read again :)
review 2: Three delightful contemporary romances in one book and all thanks to Maria and her apparent need to cruise with her life partner Ehlena. Well that and Maria just plain outright matchmaking. First up are Brad and Alyissa, both work for Geeks are us and appear to have nothing in common until Maria's cat spill coffee all over her computer while she is editing her historical romance novel that has to be submitted to her publisher Amy the next morning, enter Brads involvement he takes her emergency call for repair and finds himself not only fixing her computer but re- writing the sex scene the computer lost but to do it he gets Alyissa who has talked him into doing the rewrite to help and well , things get hot from there.Next up is Amy and Troy , Amy is. Maria's publisher of her historical romance novel and this years cat sitter as Maria and Ehlena can cruise again. Troy is Maria"s hunky fireman neighbor who keeps playing amy's white knight with plenty of misconceptions on Troys part , you eventually lead to a fire or two needing to be extinguished between these two. And finally is Maddie and Antonio. Maddie is Brad's divorced sister and Antonio is Troy's best freind ;separated from his wife for over six months and well this one can not all be blamed on Maria the whole crew had a hand in this matchmaking venture.So what did I think of this book, fun easy happy ending reads, Just plain outright enjoyable read, no major heart wrenching angst just some bumps in the road that in the case of these stories add to the light feeling of the stories and are a bit comical. So if you want a quick light hearted romance this book fits the bill! less

Short sweet stories. I liked them enough that I kept reading but not enough that I would reread.

This was a wonderful compilation of stories with a seamless flow from one story to the next.

It was just okay, none of the stories were spectacular...not enough to read a second time.
