This is a standalone story, ONE story, I repeat in case reading all the author names threw you. I don't blame you. Normally a comglomeration of author names means an anthology of many stories. How could this possibly work? Thirteen people, one story? Don't let the idea of one story turn you away because Felony After After was brilliant!
The book begins with how the idea was pulled off. Thirteen authors who joined together to write one story. Think of it like the adult version of the telephone game. One author would write a chapter than pass the story off to the next author to continue the story who would then twist and warp the storyline in their own voice then pass it off to the next willing victim, I mean author and so on and so forth until the end of the story. Hopefully at the end of the game it still has some truth to the original story, right? I'm sure there was much more liquor involved during this process than an actual adult telephone game, er...I mean I'm sure they were very professional.
Seriously, this was a fun read.
You can tell the subtle differences in author voices, which I think adds to the unique flavor of the book. It enhances the layering of the overall story instead of being a distraction. I will admit there were author voices that stood out more to my liking more than others, but that didn't mean I like the story as a whole.
As for Felony Ever After, it is a must read. Verity Michaels meets Hudson Fenn when he steals her cab, literally. He hops into the drivers seat when her cabby is distracted and then proceeds to drive her to destination. Verity wonders if it's possible to fall for a felon or was he actually her white knight? Since Hudson now continues to pop up when she needs rescuing. Hudson keeps quite a few secrets which hold Verity back, but there is just something about a white knight who is walking the line of a tad dangerous. Hold on for a crazy ride when you dive into Felony Ever After.

Seriously this book is FANTASTIC!! It was hilarious & had me laughing so hard I had tears! The story is ridiculously fun & the love story is adorable! With each chapter & a different author you never knew where the story was going, but it all flowed perfectly! Such a fun book!!
What happens when you let Debra Anastasia and Helen Hunting gather their friends and write a chapter at a time!?!
chaos.
Beautiful, crazy, sexy chaos. This wild adventure had me smiling almost the entire time. (Not going to spoil it but some people need to be kicked in their unmentionables - which can also cause a smile!

It was ok.....
I felt the characters where a bit immature...and obviously characters not too deep. alot of voices so this many authors have both pros and cons

Predictable but a fun and easy read.
If you're an avid romance reader, like myself, odds are you're familiar with a lot of these authors' works. So what happens when they all collaborate on one story? Magic.
The writing in Felony Ever After is so seamless, if you weren't given chapter headings stating which author wrote what, it would be hard to tell that it was authored by so many of the most talented authors in the romance world. It's extremely well done.
Yes, it's a bit whacky, it's fun and it's sexy as all get-out. Totally unpredictable, leaving the reader guessing as to what comes next. So if it's something different you're looking for, I definitely suggest this book. It's crazy and a bit weird at times but I applaud these authors for the way this story came together. Proof that great minds think alike. I'd love to see more writers do something like this and ditch the anthologies.

This was a fun quick read. Not a whole lot of depth to the story or to the characters just a really easy simple story.
This book does have a good pace to it it starts off with Verity Michaels sharing a cab with Hudson Fenn after she gets out of work late. In the middle of traffic the driver gets out of the car to fight with some other driver. Hudson being the white night he is steals the cab and drives Verity home safely. Hudson is a gorgeous tatted up "bad boy" who ends up being a sweet caring guy. Verity judges him based on his appearance and shuts him down several times but every time they are thrown together Hudson doesn't give up.
This book is Funny, sexy and even comes with a little mystery. #WhatsInTheBox
