I read each of the four paranormal romance stories and loved them all! They cover everything from futuristic marriage contracts, to stepping through a mirror into the past (I guess not only Alice gets to go through a looking glass), to ghosts, to a genie . I can’t give you more detail because they are four short great stories which are very different. The paperback has a total of 339 pages…so, it’s a quick read. Great for on the way to work and back or during your break at work (which I do both!). Would also be great for on the plane or in the car if you’re lucky enough to go on a vacation (which I’m not…dang!).
Because I really loved all four very different short story lines, I give this book 3 cocktails!

your review has piqued my interest. I enjoy anthologies that may have a common theme, but the theme is handled differently by each author.
