I loved this book! The stories by Barbara Johnson, Therese Szymanski, and Julia Watts were romantic and erotic and everything I hoped they would be. I'm not big on the butch/femme match up, I find it to be cliche, so I wasn't sure if I'd like "A Butch in Fairy Tale Land," by Therese Szymanski, but I did. It wasn't my favorite, though. I think my favorite was Barbara Johnson's "Charlotte of Hessen," with a close second being Julia Watts' "La Belle Rose." The only story I didn't like was the final one, Karin Kallmaker's "A Fish Out of Water." I found it to be almost scary it was so depressing. No romance happened until the final pages of the story and the sex scenes were not sexy but weird. I would give this book five stars if the last story wasn't so bad.
