THE FUCKING BABIES NAME I NEVER FOUND OUT!
This was a food collection of short stories. I'm familiar with Meljean Brook's writing, as well as Carolyn Crane's, but this was my first read by Jessica Sims.
Though short, each story was well written and engaging.

Speed Mating / Jessica Sims - 1.5 stars.
Dumb. The premise had potential, but was marred by ... inept plotting? It's pretty standard for this author to have kinda dumb heroines who humiliate themselves through stupid choices and then get rescued by the smart and strong heroes, so maybe what seems like ineptness is actually the goal. IDK. I used to be more ok with her writing, but at this point her shtick makes me stabby.
Conjuring Max / Carolyn Crane - 4 stars.
Interesting world building, a cranky-protective hero and a prickly-smart heroine. Enjoyed it enough that I'm planning to try the next in the series.
Wrecked by Meljean Brook - 3.5 stars.
Enjoyed it, but something (the pacing of the romance?) didn't fully work for me. I have pretty high expectations for this series though.

I only read Meljean Brook's novella, but loved it. As per usual. Great as a stand alone, but if you're reading the series it also helps propel the overall narrative of the series.
