I love reading anthologies. The diversity of stories or ideas all the while staying connected to the main theme is always exciting to read. One thing all these stories have in common is family. I've read works of all the three authors before and they write some really cool stuff.

The Borrowed Bride: The story was well paced with right emotions though I felt the ending was a bit abrupt. It is Susan Wiggs after all. She writes emotions so well! I liked how Isabel gradually got to understand that she should be proud of who she is instead of trying to erase her roots.

A Bridge to Dreams: First thing I loved about this story is the name, Karyn. Her character had depth and I totally liked Nick. It's not every day that one finds such a lovable hero. The brothers were the usual protective type (she has 6 of them!) but I liked how her mother took charge in the end.

Sister of the Bride: This was funny and light. The nosy family members were rightly portrayed and Aunt Tilly was undoubtedly the highlight. Ariel did not really have much to say or do. The sister was, of course, a spoilt brat but the groom somehow matched her, like Katie's mother observed.
The name Howie sounded so nerdy, so doubt Katie did not want to ask for his help.
