"From the enchanting Jewels of the Quill comes a delightful anthology filled with a dozen short romances. From contemporary to western to paranormal, there's something for every reader.

"Barbara Raffin kicks things off with a clever tale of reincarnated love, "Jaded." An offbeat take on the popular vampire theme is presented by Jaye Roycraft in "The Ruby Kiss." A bounty hunter and his boss take center stage in "Peridot Moon," a futuristic tale from Julie Skerven. Fans of mature heroines will enjoy Sherry Derr-Wille's "Diamond Magee." And Carris S. Masek tell "The Topaz Locket," from the perspective of an antiques dealer whose every move is being haunted by a woman in a coma.
These dames rock!"

4 hearts! "The story collection works well together because the strengths and surprises of the main characters are very parallel. I liked the writing because the stories flow and you move through them quickly. I gave this anthology a 4 rating because of the quality of the writing and also because the characters are like people I know. I gave this anthology a sweet sensuality rating because the stories are written in a manner that leaves out explicit details of the relationships so your imagination can fill in the details of where the relationships are going. Each of the stories has a pair of main characters that also have an enjoyment of life factor that really enhances the story." ~The Romance Studio http://theromancestudio.com/reviews/reviews/smallgifts.htm
