one point for each story
"Kilts and Krakens" was my first steam punk. I loved the worldbuilding! but the romance left a lot to be desired...
"Negotiating Point" was great on details of hostage negotiating, but lacking in the romance department. I felt like the personalities were shoved down my throat. Nerdy, shrimp of a computer tech has the hots for the calm, cool hostage negotiator. And then they have sex in a barn while the kidnappers snack on pizza??? And it wasn't even a good scene!
I bowed out at 93% of the final story. The kissing scene of "Slow Summer Kisses" was fantastic, but the actual wham-bam scenes were brief and unsatisfying even though the characters gushed over them in hindsight. Maybe short romances aren't my thing because that realizing your in love after a couple of pages is not up my alley. Lots of eye-rolling going on on my end.
great sumemr reads

3 short novels in this collection: I was only familiar with one and loved all the stories in this selection.
Kilts and Kraken by Cindy Spencer Pape,
Magnus has attempted to slay the beast but has been overpowered.
Dr. Geneva MacKay was to go north to heal Magnus.
Love time frame of King Arthur days and love learning about methods used in heal and wound care.
Ginny is one of the best bone setters and she needs to realign his pelvic bones if he is to ever walk again. Luckily he's still unconscious.
Love how descriptive the location is, the castle and what the laird was doing with steam power, makes me feel like I am there.
Magnus has a magick aura about him that the women healers are there to find out about.
THe women were to bring him back to his island when the others came for him, it was his only wish when he was awake for a minute.
After he is semi recovered others come to their aid on the island as the kraken is still attacking them because of all the modernization going on.
Ginny's sister and other relatives arrive in the airship and help in killing one of the squids. The explanation of how it explodes is truly a work of genius.
They all try to help to figure out who wants him dead and his magick powers gone.
When Ginny is missing Magnus sets out to search the whole island and to get down to why she was summoned away from the castle.
They find other clues to solve the mysteries.
