Story
Best-selling author Harley Humbug needs an escape. From the current state of her own love life. From her deadline she blew past weeks ago. From Christmas, which is just around the corner, and the bad luck it usually brings with it. When a snowstorm causes a road closure, she chalks it up to one more thing to go wrong. Little does she know the detour will take her to a town she never knew existed and right into the path - and possible arms - of a man who might just be her real-life muse.

She couldn't remember a thing, not even who she was. But it was clear Bailey James was in trouble. Big trouble. And she desperately needed private eye Cade Parris to help her find out just what kind. Surely she wasn't a criminal - but then what on earth was she doing with a bag full of cash and a stunning blue diamond as big as a baby's fist?

Story
Shattered by the loss of her husband, Maggie struggled each day to put her grief behind her. To be there for her teenaged daughter. And to face life again. When she returned to her Wisconsin hometown, she never expected to feel a spark of longing for her old high school sweetheart. Eric's marriage to a career-driven woman had left him childless and unhappy - he knew there had to be more to life than always wanting what you couldn't have. Seeing Maggie again filled him with hope. Maybe the answer to his dreams had just come to town.

Story
To Owen Collier, a job is a job. He gets paid to save businesses and cuttings costs and people. No mercy. No attachments. No goodbyes. Simple rules to follow...until Addy Walker. She’s smart and gorgeous, with curves he’d love to ride for days. His temporary employee who's making every single thing harder, especially leaving for the next job. Addy Walker hated her job until Owen Collier became her temporary boss. Strong, demanding, and controlling. Exactly the way she loves her men.

Cassie Franklin trips over nothing on perfectly flat surfaces every day, and she cannot seem to be able to simultaneously speak and look into her audience's eyes. Cassandra Frank is the ultimate tease; her words have aroused, intrigued and captured the heart of thousands...and somehow, they are the same person. Hiding the fact that she writes erotica isn't much of a challenge - no one would ever think that a plain, boring little accountant like Cassie could so much as read anything so scandalous...but one day, she makes a huge mistake.

The reformed bad boy's appeal is breaching all her defenses, and as the threats against her increase, Margo isn't sure which is more dangerous: the gangster targeting her, or the far-too-alluring protector tempting her to let loose.

The remote Irish island she’s booked is a far cry from London, but at least it’s a chance to hunker down in a luxury cabin and indulge in some self-care while she figures out the next steps in her love life and her career.

There’s a smokin’ hot dead guy locked in my garden shed. That part’s bad enough. But now, he’s trying to get out...Growing up, my father always told me that I’d come to a bad end, just like my mom did when I was a kid. Hearing that kind of shit when you’re little eventually gets to a girl, but I can’t say I ever expected my "bad end" to involve an angry vampire with a severe case of iron deficiency and a panty-melting English accent.

So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?). Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Disappointing Duo
This audiobook doesn't even weigh in at an hour and a half, and it contains two stories. I honestly believe that short-form fiction is much harder to write well than longer-form fiction. I definitely had issues with both of these books. The first novella/short story was more told than shown, always a disappointment. It didn't just have a prodigious initial information dump, but information dumps seemed to alternate with actual scenes throughout the entire story. If you need more room and time to tell the story, well … take it! The second book had some charming moments, especially when the hero and heroine sang together, but again, it simply was too short to show anything meaningful. I didn't like the narrator at all. Her voice is so flat that it is mostly monotone, and at times I thought her dialogue sounded as if it were spoken by a robotic voice, not a human one. Seriously! As you can tell, this set didn't quite do it for me. These two authors have written wonderful stories, but neither of these could be termed that.

Fortuna’s continues to cause sparks
Short and sweet stories with HEAs and no drama. Narrator was soft-spoken & robotic though.

No English/England accent
I enjoy the sweet clean holiday romance from the past. A prince. A dukes daughter. A seamstress and a bodyguard. Love was in the air for thaws couple that have loved from afar and find the courage to open up and say so.
Nice to be introduced to Claire. I found clean clear bouclas but would have liked the accent associated with the land.

Christmas love
I love the two stories and how each found what they wanted though each individual didn’t realize it was the other. The narrator reminded me of a phone solicitor at first but I was able to get used to it by the end. Sweet stories.

Christmas at Fortuna's Parlor
It Christmas and what could make things nicer than to invite the men of their lives to the Parlor a party. I love how everyone banded together to get all the details just right at the last minute. The story brings out the love for family of birth and choice. A nice narration made the story easy to listen to!

Holiday Diversion for the Morning Commute!
I listened to the audiobook version of this duet of short stories and enjoyed each story written by Dawn Brower and Amanda Mariel and narrated by Claire Nicholls. Each story embraces a snapshot into Fortuna's Parlor, a gaming hell for women, and the one night of the year when men are allowed a glimpse behind the mystic of the parlor. It is Christmastime in Regency England and each short story is a perfect listen (or read) during a lunch hour or short commute into the office around the holiday season.

2 short, romantic whirlwind stories
I was able to start and finish this all in an afternoon that was filled with interruptions a plenty. These are 2 separate love stories. One about the muse of a prince, who couldn’t imagine he actually liked her. The other about a woman who waited too long to get married - focusing solely on her business - until it seemed too late to find love.
They are both set around the holiday, and the couples live in a time where spontaneous decisions to wed were a common occurrence and you got what your got. Both stories were fun, endearing, and chaste, with very little innuendo, while still maintaining a romantic feel.
The narrator Claire Nicholls did a great job. Her accents were understandable from one another. Her voice is pleasant.
I was given a copy of this book by the author, narrator, or publisher in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.

Romance is for those willing to believe in love.
This title encompasses two short stories, of Christmas magic, for two different couples, each with attachment to Fortuna's Parlor.
Each are of attraction that each person has felt, but up until this period, has failed to voice. It is wonderful and romantic, with a special touch of Christmas magic
