The only story I read in this anthology is "Ten Reasons to Stay" by Sabrina Jeffries.

Colin Hunt, the new Earl of Montieth, catches a thief in the process of stealing one of his horses. He is surprised when the thief turns out to be Eliza Crenshawe, a student from Mrs. Harris' School for Young Ladies. Eliza was visiting her drunken uncle for the holidays when she was told that she would marry an older neighbor the next day. Not wanting to marry, Eliza runs away and tries to find transportation back to London. Colin doesn't believe her outlandish story, but finds her fascinating, especially when Eliza wants to make a bargain...In exchange for helping her escape, she'll give Colin a night of pleasure he will never forget.

This story is 91 pages and suffers from being way too short. Colin and Eliza meet late one night and find insta-love within 24 hours. My rating: 2 Stars.
