Delos -
I liked the shorter format, created by having the two writers' shorts stories together in one book. The first was more like a novel that was forced to run quicker, sacrificing details that would have probably made it more interesting and believable.
The second story was perfect for the length. Yeah, of course - it is going to come around, in the end, to a some cliches of the genre, but everything leading up to it was great. She's a great writer; she does a great job of spinning a gripping story within the narrow confines of the 'rules' of a historical romance.
